The huge smoke stscks that have towered over the Crane Mills' sawmill at Paskenta for years were recenUy taken down. They and the large waste-fed furnaces that provide heat and steam for the dry kiln openttion have been replacd with new automatic equipment that is virtually smoke free. Straighter, more uniformly dry lumber is another plus feature of the installation, which also includes completely new kilns.
A new burner has also been installed that has reduced smoke emission by 75Vo-80Vo in the disposat of waste that is unusable.
Cleaner air and better lumber are definitely the results obtained from joining the L Q. Club (I Quit Smoking).
