Abstract

Evaluates regional timber output based on the results of a survey of the timber industries of southern New England. Contains statistics on industrial timber production and receipts in Connecticut, Massachusetts and Rhode Island, by state and species, log shipments between states, sawmills and lumber production, and the production and disposition of manufacturing residues. Comparisons are made with historical and recent data, and trends in industrial wood output are noted. Includes graphics and statistical tables.
