Holdir-rg capacity of \\restern I'ine sas'mill kilns, based on lumber of four-quarter thickness, r()se from 36,.153,00C feet in 1943 to 41,703,000 feet in 19,19 and 69,967,000 feet today.
On a four-day drying schedule for fonr-cluarter lumber, the daily kiln output ligure for the region's association mills u.as 9,113,000 feet in 1943, 11,176,000 feet in 7949 and 17,492,000 feet norv. Thus the region's kilns now in operation can turn out enough seasoned lumber daily to load 550 railroad c,ars-more than five long freight trains.

"This huge volume makes it possible for customers tcr l;uy properly seasoned \\restern Pine lumber just about everyu'here," said Knight. "It's one of the points r)rlr producers have been stressing-the use of dry lumber for 'best results. They believe in it so strongly that they have built up their kiln capacity to these proportions."

While the survey coverecl associ:rtion member mills only, it amounted to virtually tot:rl regional coverage since as- soci;rtion rnembership accounts for more than li5'l of the region's production and there zire feu,er kiln-clrying mills outside the association than ever l)efore. Tl're survcy shclu'e<l clry-kilns oper:rting at 213 of 380 plants co\rered.
