Containing 56 illustrated pages, the White Fir book lists in detail the properties and grades of the species and its uses in the general construction and industrial fields. Full page pictures of typical pieces of each grade are accompanied by text material describing the illustrated examples.

Properties and uses sections are illustrated with photographs of White Fir in actual use in residences, commercial buildings, box shook, cabinets, etc. Also included are a map of the Western Pine region, pictures of standing White Fir trees and a photomicrograph of White Fir cell structure.

The book is indexed and carries a listing of standard manufactured sizes and an alphabetic catalogue of uses for White Fir and the recommended grades therefor.

"With the publication of the White Fir species book," S. V. Fullaway, Jr., association secretary-manager, said, "the Western Pine Association recognizes the- unprecedented growth in demand for a wood which is in plentiful supply and serves a multitude of purposes in the industrial and residential construction fields. We believe the book will give builders, architects and all wood users and dealers an excellent understanding of the many uses for this fine general utility wood."

Fullaway revealed that the estimated 1947 production exceeded that of 1946 by nearly eight per cent and that White Fir was shipped into 46 states and abroad by mills of the Western Pine region. He said that annual production of White Fir had increased six-fold in the past decade.

Single copies of the White Fir book are available free to all dealers, builders, architects and other lumber users and jobbers and may be secured by writing the Western Pine Association, Yeon Building, Portland 4, Oregon' Quotations on additional copies may be obtained from the association.
