Abstract

Indiana's 480 active sawmills received 232 million board feet of saw logs in 1966. More than one-quarter was red oak. Eighty-six of these mills each sawed more than one-million board feet. Of 1,100 mills active in 1949, only 30 sawed this much. Sixteen counties each produced more than 5 million board feet and collectively accounted for 47 percent of the lumber sawn in 1966.
