THE

~ •ASSOCI

Once again
before you and
it is hoped you will obtain valuable and interesting information from its contents.
The last issue featured "Fire Prevention". Since
that time the devastating fires of early summer have
been brought under control and extinguished. The
damage resulting from these serious outbreaks has not
yet been finally established but it is known the final
loss wi II reach stupendous figures in dollars and cents.
Let us not be lulled into a false sense of security during periods of low hazard-it is up to each and everyone
of us to be ever alert and to see to it that our systems
ot Fire Prevention and Protection· are brought up to
the highest possible standard
The feature of this issue of the "Log Book" could
well be the settlement of the Labor Agreement for
1948-49. It is to the credit of both the Operators
and Union representatives that by "collective bargainjng" and peaceful negotiation a mutually satisfactor~·
agreement for the coming year was reached
The discussions prior to settlement took place
over a long period of time and while it must be admitted that there are still imperfections from the standpoint of either side, both parties have gone a long way
towards an ultimately model agreement.
It must be
remembered however that any such agreement must
jlways have foremost the best interests of the men compatible with the best interests of the industry as a
whole. We have either reached or passed the high
point of the ability of the Industry to absorb the high
cost of raw materials.
It would be wise therefore to
bear in mind that it will be much better to attempt to
keep the entire industry on an "even keel' for a long
term rather than to push costs to the point where the
industry could be priced out of business.
Full production on the part of everyone is the
answer to high earnings and profits for all. So with the
commencement of a new logging season the "Log
Book" wishes you every success for the 1948-49 operating year
H. H. "Bert" STYFFE
This booklet is published as a medium of exchanging information and of recording events of interest in the woods industry in Northern Ontario.
:opies are mailed to al I key personnel and to all camps
of member-companies as well as to other interested
persons.
We would appreciate receiving historical inform-·
ation interesting news items or humorous incidents at any
time. This is your "Log Book" put out for the benefit
of the members of this association. Your comments
and suggestions for further improvement are invited.

To the Port Arthur office of the Department cf
Lands and Forests for the excellent display and entertainment provided at the local exhibition in the interests
ot conservation both to the forests and wild life
The Port Arthur office has staged an active forest
ire prevention campaign in the local press and over
the local radio, and local officers ore to be congratulated on this work.
Results of money spent on advertising are intangible but it is felt that the present program of the deportment in this connection could be considerably enlarged for next year. Education of the public at large,
prevention of forest fires and conservation are still
vital necessities and while a start has been made in
a small way, further efforts are needed.
Under the present budget system of the Department of Lands and Forests .it is a difficult task to forecast what will be done in. this connection next year.
Funds for next year's activities will not be assured until after the next budget comes down in 1949. From
a business view point, this is a serious handicap in planning a campaign of this sort and it is too bod that funds
cannot be appropriated now for 1949 activities.
The whole forest fire picture from prevention,
suppression and education to a review of actual experiences of the '48 season should be thoroughly gone
into early this winter and plans made as soon as possible to plan the bottle for next year.

Support Your Community Chest
Each year in the different localities a c0mmunity
chest or other charitable drives are held.
In
the post years these drives have been supported very
generously by the men in the camps and it is hoped that
drives in the coming season will be likewise supported.
The Port Arthur Community Chest Incorporated
and the Fort Wi 11 iam Community Chest Incorporated
will be making an appeal for funds to cover operating
deficits of affiliated agencies doing social and welfare
work in the cities and surrounding communities. Many
of the agencies supported give services to outlyng districts and this is especially true of the Children's Aid
Society, The Canadian Institute for The Blind and in
Port Arthur the Old Folk's Home.
The Chest is supervised by a board who give their
services absolutely free. Specialsts in finance, business
relations, labour and many other fields give voluntary
service. Organized labour is fully behind the chest
movement and the Lumber and Sawmill Worker's Union
have supported and will support this campaign to their
utmost. •
The budgets for the Chest are very carefully
made up. The absolute minimum required in Port
Arthur is $41,000.00 and in Fort William $33,500.00
The 1948 campaign opens on October 18th and runs
for a period of three weeks. To be successful the full
co-operation and wholehearted support of every member of the communities in North Western Ontario is
necessar'y
As last year the timber comps will be canvassed and literature forms, etc., will be sent out to the
camps and volunteer workers will collect donations.
The· support of each and every person is solicited.
l n other communities as wel I as the Lokehead,
your financial support in such worthy campaigns is
requested.

Timber Inventories From Aerial Photographs
By John M. Robinson
Chief Forester, Photographic Survey Co. Ltd.
During the 1948 summer season, Photographic
Survey Company Limited of Toronto: 1has complete_d
three significant contracts with North-Western Ontario
timber operators which should go a long way toward
establishing the fact that successful forest inventories
can be carried out quickly, accurately and economically
through the proper use of air photographs, supplemented by field checking.
The largest of these jobs was done for the J. A.
Mathieu Lumber Company at Quetico Park and involved photographing 1000 square miles of limits, the preparation of base maps, and the taking of _a cor:r,plete
type and volume inventory of the standing t1mb~r.
Photography, both vertical and tri-camera, was done in
the spring, and a field party carried out ground_ ~hecks
in July. The making of maps arid th_e compilin~ of
inventory data was done in Photographic Survey Company1s laboratories
The other two contracts were carried out using
aerial photos which Photographic Survey had al ready
taken in the course of its five-year survey of 125,000
square miles of Northerri Ontario for the provincial
Department of Lands and Forests. A det?i led inventory of 81 square miles in Alderson Township near Oba
was prepared for the Newaygo Timber Company of
Port Arthur and 135 square miles near Cochrane were
done for the Driftwood Lands and Timber Company of
Sault Ste. Marie. On both of these jobs, ground checking parties from Photographic Survey Company did the
necessary ground checking to assure the accuracy o-f
information taken from the photographs.
Other work done this summer which is of interest to Ontario timber operators includes special photo
coverage of 5000 square miles of the territory in the
burned-over area around Missisagi for the Department
of Lands and Forests, for the purpose of assessing the
damage and planning whatever salvage is possi?le.
1948 also marks the third year of progress on the fiveyear task of photographing and mapping 125,000
square mi ies of wooded areas for the same government
department
At the present time, Photographic Survey Company is unique in offering a complete reco_nn?1ssan_ce
service to Canadian timber operators. This includes
flying and photography (in cases w_here suita~le coverage does not already exist,) expert interpretation of the
photos by a specially trained staff of foresters., the

preparation of base maps, the transference of inventory information to the maps, the preparation of contoured maps (or even topographical models) which aid
greatly in planning cutting operations, camp locations
etc.

The School Comes To The Bush
-

by E. V. ROSS

During the past year the Timber operators of
North-West Ontario have done much to make the newcomers from Europe feel at home in Canada. In fact
it has been suggested that the name "Displaced Person"
be changed to "Placed Person."
In almost all cases the new-comers have adapted
themselves well. A large number have completed their
ten month contracts and proceeded "on holidays" with
confidence. Many plan to return to the bush this
winter.
It is of interest to note that the instructing of these
men has been carried on by clerks, cooks, timekeepers
and other busy staff members of the various camps.
Much credit for the "Placing" of new-comers is due
these volunteer instructors.
It is hoped that in this coming season more camp
personnel will realize the importance of the citizenship work and lend assistance.
Books and supervision of studies were supplied
Community Programmes, a branch of the Ontario De partment of Education
Community Programmes is at present making
plans for further courses this year. Instruction will be
given whenever the request is made, providing instructors
can be tound. Courses in English, Citizenship, ana
other desired subjects will be given. These courses will
be supplemented with films supplied through co-operation with the National Film Board and the Thunder
Bay Film Library.
Any company or camp desiring information
help in setting up courses should contact.

Growth and Regeneration Study
Bromptoo Pulp &amp;Paper Co. Ltd. Nipigon

OCTOBER, 1948

Poplar Sinkage Experiment Conducted By Long Lac
Pulp &amp;Paper Company Ltd., at. Camp No. 21

By DR. STEVENS

By G. L. PUTTOCK

This summer the Brompton Pulp &amp; Paper Co. Ltd.,
Nipigon, has taken advantage of the offer of co-operation from the Dominion Forest Service in establishing
permanent plots for growth study purposes. About 150
plots have been established, mostly in the younger
stands, and it is planned to continue this work next
year. Plots are to be remeasured in five years and possibly again in l O years.
Mr. Bedell, of the Dominion Forest Service, visited us the first part of July, looking over our stands ano
checking on the actual technique of laying and measuring the plots. The work was carried out by forestry
students under the. direct supervision of Dan Pickard,
our Chief of Surveys. The tally forms were supplied by
the D. F. S. The Service will also help in the compilation
of the data and the development of stand density yield
curves
.
Mr. Bedell suggested that the various companies in this disfrict who are doing growth study work
could perhaps pool their information and so reduce
the number of plots required by each company , The
D. F. S. would probably then be quite willing to draw up
yield curves for each basic type in each of the forest
areas (according to Halliday's Forest Classification)
found in this district. This has been suggested to several companies and it is hoped to have a meeting shortly to discuss the matter.
A regeneration swvey was also carried out on a
small scale on our limits. The results will be tied in
to the findings of similiar surveys conducted by the
Department of Lands and Forests in Northwestern Ont.

With the increasing demand for poplar as a ra
product for pulp and paper mills the Woodlands Div
sions are confronted with the problem of delivering this
species most economically. As driving pulpwood direct-·
ly to the mill, wherever possible, is the cheapest known
method to date, the question then arises whether or not
the financial loss through sinkage outweighs the cost
of alternate methods ·of deliver,
Available information, from sinkage experiments,
and experience, indicates that such loss of winter cut
poplar makes it impracticable and uneconomical to
drive this species. However poplar is becoming such
on important phase of our operation that it was deemed advisable to conduct a sinkage experiment that would
simulate the actual operating conditions encountered,
were this wood being delivered to the mill

Quantities of rough poplar were cut during
December 1947, January, February, .and March, 1948.
After each cutting period the -wood was placed on an
ice landing and encircled with a boom. Each piecfnwas numberecfby means of a metal tag and a complet~record mode at the ·end of each month to determine
the si nkage loss.
•
The results to July 31st, 1948 ore recorded on
the following ·page and are by no means complete.
Similar sinkage experiments ore underway with
16' winter cut poplar and 8' and 16' leng~hs of green
jackpine results of which will be available at an early
date

HOW A TREE GROWS
-THE FOREST COMMUNITYA forest is far more than a mere group of trees.
It is a highly organized community of plants and animals living in close association and in varying degrees
of interdependence. The law of life in the forest is
survival ot the fittest, and the competition tor existence
is keen. The forest itself is beautful and useful and
has played a vital part in the development of the h~man
race
- HOW A TREE LIVES Trees are woody plants, growing from the ground
usually with a single stem. They are the largest members of the plant world, ranging in height from 20 to 300
feet or more, according to species and conditions of
growth. Trees may be said to consist of three parts:
t 1) The roots, which hold the tree in place and take up
from the soil, water and certain mineral substances
needed in the tree's growth; (2) the trunk or stem, which
supports the crown and supplies it with water and food
trom the roots; and (3) the crown, which has much to
do with the life of a tree, for in this port take place
the most important processes in the digestion of its food
and the reproduction of the tree. (Illustration on next
page.)
The materials upon which a tree feeds are derived from the soil and from the air. Those from the
soil are collected by the roots which extend down into
the ground. At the ends of the roots and rootlets are
countless root hairs reaching out between particles of
soil for water and the various substances which it holds
in solution.
The water and food materials thus collected move upward through numerous channels in the
roots, trunk, and branches to the leaves
The leaves serve as factories where the foods
necessary for the tree's growth are manufactured.
This toad making takes place in numberless tiny ceiis
of the le~f where by aid of chlorophyll bodies and the
action of sunlight, the carbonic acid gas taken from
the air is broken up into its elements, oxygen and carbon. While the oxygen is returned to the air, the
carbon, still through the action of sunlight and chlorophyll, is combined with the oxygen and hydrogen of the
water with the roots, forming new chemical compounds .
in which nitrogen and various earthy substances from
the water are present. Thus the row food materials
which reach the tree through the roots and the leaves
are digested in the leaves somewhat as food is digested in the human body. They are then sent to all living parts of the roots, stem, and crown, where they are
either used at once in growth or stored away for later
use

Maize

Like all other plants and like animals, trees
breathe.
This breathing is done through the leaves
and through tiny openings in the bark called lenticels.
The amount of water taken up by the roots 1s
usually very much larger than is required in the chemical processes which go in the leaves. There is thus a
surplus of water which cannot be held in the leaves 1 bu
must make way for fresh supplies carrying the mineral constituents necessary to the tree's growth. The
tree rids itself ot this unused water by a process known
as transpiration, which is the evaporation of water from
all parts of the tree above ground, but principally from
the leaves. In this way trees give off great quantities
of water vapor, which tends to keep the air in the forests humid and favorable to growth
HOW A TREE GROWS
Most trees grow in height and spread of branches
by sending out shoots formed by the development of
new wood cells. The growth in height each year is
made at the terminal bud of the main stem or stems.
The "candles'' cf the pines are showy evidences of this
new growth
A tree grows in thickness or girth through the
addition each year of a coat of new wood cells. The
layer of wood thus developed is known as an annua -,
ring, which, after it is once formed, does not change
in size or place during the life of the tree. The annual rings as a rule may be clearly seen on a cross
section of the tree trunk.
In the center is the pith.
Around the pith is the ring formed the first year;
around the first year's growth is the ring formed the
the second year, and so on. The wood nearest the
bark is often lighter than that in the center.
This
lighter wood is known as the sapwood, because it is the
living wood through which the water taken up by the
roots passes on its way to the crown. After it has served for a number of years carrying on these life processes, the sapwood graduol ly changes to heartwood.
Through infiltration of chemical substance and certain
changes in the character of the cell walls, the wood be- ·
comes darker in color and wholly lifeless. The one
function of the ~e?rtwood is mechanical; it serves onl ,
to support the I1vmg parts of the tree. This is whv
hollow trees may still flourish and bear fruit.
•
The cells between the last layer of sapwood and
the bark make up what is known as the cambium layer. It is here that new growth tokes place. The inner
side of the cambium layer forms new wood and the
outer side bark.
In addition to the true cambium
which forms both wood and bark, there is another ca~~
bium w~ich makes the outer corky bark and nothing

HOW A T EE GROWS
Trees increase each year
in height and spread of
branches by adding on o
new arowth of twigs.

Light and heat ore required by the
leaves in ·the preparation of food
11btoined from the air and soil. The
leaves give off moisture by transpiration.

Heortwood (inoctive)
gives strength. _ _ _ _ _ _ _ __
Sapwood (xylem) carries
sap from root to leoves·-----;lf;•

TRUNK

Inner bark (phloem} carries
food mode in the leaves down
to the branches, trunk, and
roots·-----------➔

The seeds of many trees are winged and are
easily scattered by the wind . The maples, and the
American elm, are among those that belong in this
class. The lighter seeds, like those of the elm, may be
borne long distances. The seeds of the maples, liowever, are comparatively heavy for fliers and consequently do not get very far from the parent tree.
Heavier seeds, such as the nuts and acorns, may be
carried away from the parent tree by birds and smal 1
animals which feed upon them.

Trees, like many other plants. bear flowers ord
reproduce by means of seed. When the tree enters on
its long winter rest, it has its next year's buds already
formed. With the coming of spring, these bud·; expand
and grow until they finally open into flowers or leaves.
Some trees, as the elm and red maple, blossom and
set fruit before the leaves open. The ousy willow
and alder catkins burst forth before the frost is fairiy
out of the ground. Other trees wait until thei: leaves
are partly grown before producing their blossoms,
while still others, such os the chestnut and basswood,
do not flower . until early summer.

Some trees mature their seeds rapidly and
scatter them in the growing season. This gives the
seedlings a long summer for their first season's growth.
Others, such as the nut trees, slowly prepare their
seeds for fall sowing. The members of the red -oak
group and many of the cone-b~aring trees take 2 yeo:-s
to matu: e their seed crops.

Cambium (fayer of cells
where growth in diameter
occurs) builds tissues-wood
inside and bark outside. - - - - -Dll

.

in the bark. In either case it dies from time to time,.
and is re-formed nearer the wood.

Most of the cone-bee: ing trees, such as the
pines, spruces, and firs, also _blossom in the early
spring. The staminate (male) and pistillate (female}
tlowers are usually found on the same tree, and their
color varies in the different sr,ecies from yellow and
orange to shades of pink, rose, or purple. The pines,
especially, produce large quantities of pollen which is
scattered by the wind. · Geologically, the conifers are
very old, being contemporary with the plant growth
from which the coal deposits of today were formed.
They still retain the simplicity of floral structure
which marked the vegitation of those early times.

CROWN

The buds, root tips, and cambium layer ore the growing ports.
The tree tal:es in oxygen over its entire surface through
breathing pares on leaves, twigs, branches, trunk,ond roots.

Most trees provide great quantities of seed.
but when the seeds have fallen from the trees their
fate becomes a matter of chance, and out of thousands perhaps only one will take root where it can
grow to be a tree and in its turn bear seed.

HOR SE SENSE
If you work for a man, in Heaven's narr.e work for him. If
he pays wages that supply you your bread and butter, work for him,
speak well of him, and stand by him, and stand by the instituti on
he represents. Yes, if I worked for a man, I would work for him.
I would not work for him a part of his time, but all of his time .
i would give an undivided service or none.
If put to the pinch, an
ounce of loyd:lty is worth a pound of cleverness. If you must vilify,
condemn, and eternally disparge, why, resign your position, and
when you are outside, damn to your heart's content. But, I pray
you, so long as you are part of an institution do not condemn it.
Not that you will injure the institution - not that - but when you
disparge the concern of which you dre a part, you disparge yourself,
and don't forget -- "I forgot" won't do in business.

UNION MESSAGE
The new agreement in 1he woods industry covering wages
and working conditions for the year 1 948-49 has just been concluden.
The negotiations were the most protracted ever held, every clause,
especially the working agreement was thoroughly discussed.
The
result is that the new agreement represents a distinct improvement
over lost year, especially the clause defining griEvance procedure.
It remains now for us TO 3ee to it that this machinery 1s used
for the general benefit. The first thing of course is for eoch ,.md
-2very one ot us to acquaint ourselves with the grievance procedure.
Every question that arises con be regularly token up and dealt with,
so our uninon on its oart will insist on our members and responsible
peoule in the camps that the cigreement signed by us will be strictly
adhered to.
This will not only benefit us as individuals but increase
tht' prestige of our organiza ti on.

A~cident Figures Show That Mondo Woods Workers
Haye Twice as Many Accidents as Plant Workers

By Courtesy

11

THE MANDONIAN,,

Thirty years ago any paper mill which had operated a year
without a dea'th would feel that it had done something special in
the field of safety .
The present downward trend of occupational injuries ha5
been accomplished, first, by removal of physical hazard; and better
~ousekeeping, and second, by persistent education. Attitudes have
changed. Instead of the fatalistic "Oh well, these hazards are
part of the job, we must expect some accidents to happen," on
the pa,t of b_o th management and men, the view now is "Accidents
can be controlled; unsafe conditions can be removed; and employe~s
can be made safety conscious by education."
What hos been accomplished in industry in general, and
in our Mondo mills in particular, can be done in our logging operations. No improvement in safety was ever made through any
other attitude than that "Accidents can be control led, and its everyone's job to do it.'
There were 233 lost time injuries in Mondo logging camps
in 1947, against 101 in the mills. Disregarding the frequency rate,
this is a ratio of two to one. Let's look at the record and see
what we may learn from these 233 accidents. The were 1 84 of
these accidents that happend to men with less than six months
service with the Company. In 102 of the cases there was no tool
or equipment whatever involved. More than half of the mJuries
were caused by the men being struck by objects, or striking themselves with tools, like axes and hand picks. About 80% of thern
were due to unsafe practices :..ind poor working methods, including
ignorance of the hazards connected with the job.
Depicted below ore some of the more common of the needless accidents which put woods workers in the hospital, or at least
caused loss of time and earnings. These reflect the general type
of cases that could have been prevented by a little intelligent
planning, common sense and ordinary care. Let us review them.
No. 1. Carrying wood from the strip to pile along road;
slips on icy spot or stumbles on root and falls, spraining back;
chest or shoulders. Being on piecework, the more he hurries, the
the more he makes, he thinks. Too much haste costs him money.
No. 2.
Undercutting tree, axe is deflected by a limb and
cuts knee, foot or shin. A sure sign of a tenderfoot; he proves

No. 4. In falling, the tree hits a stump or rock and bounces
sidewise or backward, striking the man who had cut it. Often en
error of judgment in putting in the undercut. Worker should observe anything which the tree might strike, and place his cut so
as to avoid it
No. 5. Rolling wood from end of pile with hand hook, to
food load onto truck or sleigh, dislodges another stick, which falls
on foot. A careful man will stand in the clear, and observe the
lay of the sticks on the pile. One day should be sufficient to
learn to do this job safely.
No. 6. Swamping of limbing tree for cutting ir.t'? short
lengths, and standing on same side of trunk with limb. Axe
swing carries through and cuts foot, shin or knee. Too muct1
haste to convert the tree into wages. The wise cutter stands on
the opposite side and keeps the trunk between his body and the
axe swing. If this is impossible, a little practice shows how .-o
swing the a;xe away from the body instead of towards it.
(
No. 7. Bucking sticks or logs with Swede saw and holdin
the operating hand on the frame at the fastening of the blade.
Blade strikes ant hole or sliver and binds, hand being forced forward along the teeth. A bad practice. Ordinary horse sens':l
dictates that the hand be placed above the sow blade.
No. 8. A neglected cut or abrasion; treated it himself ar:d
failed to get first aid; infection followed. With the facilities available in all camps, there con be f'IO excuse for such neglect. Always report all cuts and lacerations at once to the nurse, first aid
man or foremar,, and have them properly cared for.
These and similar coses indicate the causes of 80 per cent
of the disabling injuries to Mondo woods workers. The remedies are
just as clearly indicated. They ore forethought, common sen$e
and avoidance of unnecessary haste, ar.d they con and must he
learned by the worker5
There is no good reason why our woods operations cannot
as free of accidents as those in our mills
HALF-SAFE IS NOT ENOUGH.

Since the end of World War 11, "CATERP I LLAR '
has expended its line to include, ·beside the brand new
items, improved and more powerful D8, D6, D4, and D2
track type tractors; the Diesel DW l O wheel type tractor
straight type and angling type, hydraulic controlled
bulldozers for all fine track type tractors.

The production of pulp wood, due to its rapidly
rising costs has been the critical concern of the pulp
and paper manufacturer for some time past. A number of ideas have been put forward to increase production, several of which have been tried out. Notably
among these is the Nesco slasher and loader which is
no longer an experimental machine.
It has fully justified the foresight of those who were instrumental in
its design; capable of producting and loading over l 00
cords in an eight hour day, with not more than six personnel.
This machine has eliminated the backbreaking
labour with which this work was previously done. The
trees are felled and the limbs trimmed off.
They are
then brought to the slasher with sulkies which carry
a number of tree length logs at each trip according to
their capacity.
These logs are placed in para I lel to the powered
horizontal conveyor which is an integral part of the
slasher and are pulled onto the conveyor with a cross
haul.
The sawyer depresses a lever which puts the conveyor into motion bringing the log forward to a solidly
1
constructed stop. The 44 ' saw which is attached to
a radial arm is then brought down and cuts off the
the required length which is automatically elevated and
loaded; the loading apron being raised and lowered
hydraulically to suit
.
The Northern Engineering &amp; Suppiy Company,
Limited have now added hydraulic action to the saw
radial arm and the tree length horizontal powered conveyor. Manual or hydraulic control is optional.

Lumberjack Sawing Contests At Lakehead Winter Carnival,
February 1949
The Lakehead Cities of Fort William and Port
Arthur will be hosts to the Northern Ontario Outfitters
Association, next February. A lumber-jack sawing and
chopping contest will be staged. It is planned in this
connection, as a feature of the carnival.
The plan is to have each company that wishes
to enter a contestant hold contests in their camps and
declare camp champions and by process of elimination declare a company champior.
These company champions will then compet~
at the winter carnival in February.
1n this connection a committee will be appointed by the Operators' Association to draw up rules and
regulations for the contest and it is planned to have
a representative of the Lumber and Sawmill Workers'
Un~on, Local 2786 as one of the judges.
The following is an extract from an article
by M. R. Wilson of the Canadian International Paper
Company on "The Value Of Sawing Contests In Labor
Relations.'·
"Ordinarily there is little in average camp life
to interest the worker except the daily routine of work.
This, after a period tends to produce boredom and discontent, with the resultant bad effects which come
from such conditions. It is a fact that the results of
professional hockey games and prize fights are followed with great interest in most camps. However, in
the average camp it is not possible to provide sports
such as baseball, football, or hockey, and it is doubt-

ful if the majority of woods workers, due to their background, could participate in such sports
For these reasons other diversions must be found
to satisfy the need for competitive sport, and sawing competitions are a natural. We believe that they
are filling a part of that need very nicely. We have
found that looking at a group of men who have w
depot championships is not unlike looking at a grou
of young athletes who could be candidates for a football or hockey team. They are generally young, cleancut and good living.. Such groups would be a credit
to any industry
Sawing contests are doing something to stimulate interests in care of tools and sawing technique.
Great interest is shown in the winners' style and in
the type of saw he has and how it's filed. Already
as a result of our experiment we have men carrying
their favourite saw blades to competitions in leather
cases and they are guarded more carefully than a
champ golfer would guard his favourite clubs. This
care of tools and interest in technique is what we
want to create, and cannot help but produce beneficial results for the industry
An esprit de corps is obvious.
Jobbers have
been quite keen about their champions and have shown
interest to the point of backing them with mone)t(
Inspectors and instructors who have travelled from cam~
to camp while the contests were in progress, inform us
that sawing contests and speculation as to winners
was the chief topic of talk in the camps. This interest
in the sawing competitions brings a possible sport right
to the forest workers' back door and it is a sport in
which 100 % of the employees may participate.

At the last e~ al ~ e • g the executive and

to r
ive the complete endorsation of all membe
f
past and future issues of
the : 'Log Book". I tr ·st each member and recipient
will continue to benefit from the useful information
contained therein
The theme of the last issue of the "Log LBook"
was "Fire Prevention."
From the experiences of the
past few weeks the theme was obviously well chosen.
The fire hazard throughout the province has created
an explosive situation with a number of serious outbursts close to home.
In other parts of the province
the fire losses in green timber have been nothing short
of catastrophic. Only through the hard work and efforts of the var'1ous Forestry DepartmJ:?nts in cooperation
with the timber companies has the situation been
brought under control
••
It becomes obvions, however, that the situation
may again break out more seriously this year.
It
behooves every single agency and citezen to become
more conscious than ever of the terrible danaer which
confronts the No. l industry of the Province~
It occurs to me that the Tmber Operators' Assaciation as an agency can be of greater assistance than
in the past in meeting the problems of prevention of
serious forest fire outbreaks and their suppression.
I am not prepared to say what direction such assistance should take but I would like to suggest here that
every member come to the next general meeting with
as many constructive ideas as possible as to how we,
as an association, can -help to bring about total "Fire
Prevention'·

First wood sluiced over Virgin Falls - June 9, May 20,
First wood sluiced over Cameron Falls - May 28, May 18,

The course as presently outlined, will be of
o years' duration and is planned to fit high school
graduates and m(2n already employed in the forest industry for sub-professional supervisory positions in that
vocvation.
N orthwestern 0 ntario district is now, more than
ever, the nucleus of the forest industry and all indicat1ons suggest that the area will enjoy top place in the
industry for many decades. This great advance has
been achieved under the guidance of a few trained
and professional men who have toiled diligently with
a minimum of assistance from technicians. These
men -long ago realized the necessity for technical aid
if the pulpwood and saw logs were to be won economicallq from our forests. They urged the establishment
of a training school from which they could obtain rangers, cruisers, junior forest engineers and similar subprofessional assistants.
The faculties of forestry in our universities could
not meet the demand for trained personnel. The graduates from these institutions could not adequately fill
the myriad of jobs with the result that unskilled employees had to be trained as well as possible under difficult
conditions.
A brief concerning the type of training desired
for forestry technicians was presented to the departments of education and lands and forests with the result
that the present coure is being offered. The brief
was based on the urgent need for trained personnel to
fill the gap between the professional man and the rank
and file of labour.
It also stated the type of men required to fill the gap and what these men must have
and be able to do. The various suggestions were made
bearing in mind that the students would be principaliy
men from Northwestern Ontario and would, upon graduation, put their training to use in the Lake Superior
region.
The Department of Education, who are sponsoring
the Lakehead Technical Institute, requested that a
selected committee form industry in our area, be
appointed to make certain that the type of training i5
adequate and desirable. This committee wi II have an
active part in recommending the curriculum and choosing instructors.
It has been decided that the prime object of the
course is to train men in the practical phase of fores!"
work and forest management, so that they wll be capable of doing supervisory work in the woods and keepi ng our forest lands productive. The student wi 11 be
thoroughly educated in the theory of forestry and the
practical appiication of this theory.
It is the intention and onus of the Institute to
provide the operating companiest with desirable employees and to provide the ambitious forest workmen ar,d
desirable students with a source of training which will
allow them to advance to positions of responsibility
in forestry.
Applications to attend this course should be submitted to the principal, Lakehead Technica Institute,
Port Arthur, Ontario.
Thunder Bay Timber Operators Association representatives in this committee are Messrs. P. V. Lemay,
P. A. Clark and J. H. MerrilL

Hauling Pulpwood on Semi-Irailers
by D. E. Graham
In the Valora District of the Great Lakes Paper
Company, approximately 25,000 cords of pulpwood are
hauled to railhead every winter.. On this haul, sleighs
were drawn by three ton trucks.
During the 1945-46 season, one semi-trailer
was built and a few trips made with approximately 6
cords per load. The results were very satisfactory.
Twelve semi-trailers were built in the company
workshop during the summer of 1946 in order to change over the Valora haul from sleighs to all semitai ler~
The past two winters, the winter rail wood has
been delivered from bush jammer at the strip road to
railway cars, Valora, by semi-trailerrs.
A very substantial saving has been realized as
compared to hauling sleighs with the same type and
number of trucks. The saving has been realized
from reduced ice road maintenance, sleigh maintenance,
truck chains, tires and general truck maintenance.
The semi-trailers were used on two summer hauls
during 1947. One, a ten mile haul from Dog River,
Savanne District, while the other was a four mi le haul
at Martin, Gull Lake Limit. The trailers proved very
satisfactory as to operating cost and reduced the number
of vehicles on the road thus reducing the accident
hazard
The semi-trailers were built in the Company
workshop to the following specifications:

Lecturer Covers Nipigon Dri,e for Material
Mr. J. M. Humphrey of Vancouver, noted lecturer, covered "the Nipigon River from Cameron Falls
to Virgin Falls to obtain material for a lecture on the
pulp and paper industry in Canada.
Mr. Humphrey has crossed Canada 102 times in
the course of seeking facts and material for lectures
but this is the first time he has stopped off in this area.
Mr. Humphrey stated that his lectures are prepared
and used to sell Canada to the Canadians; In other
~..vords to tell Canad·1ans what is going on in their own
countr}
Mr. Humphreys certainly picked out a beautiful
country, with the drive crews meeting all possible
natural obstacles, in which to obtain his material.

Scaling Is a Profession

the! r hands. Both buyers and sellers have been equally
guilty of this pratice
Times are1 changing, however, and scaling
now is regarded as a profession.
Is taught by
competent instructors 1n established Forestry and Wood in
Ranger schools. The big theme stressed by scaling w
1
instructors is fairness. Wherever a timber scaler's ser- P
ices are required, whether it be for arbitration between
compan·1es and cutters or for revenue between compan- 1 P
ies and the Crown, the competent scaler records his tc
measurements accuratelq, speedily and without fear ti
or favour. In addition, he organizes his work so that ~
the movement of timber from the stump to its ultimate
destination is not impeded
c
C
Finally; a scaler is a referee between the buyers
;
and sellers of rough cut wood products whose main
duty is to reduce the difference of opinon as to quanl
tity and quality which ·might exist between the aforementioned buyers and sellers to a minimum ...................

A

By Courtesy of the Timber Cullers Assn.
The origin of scaling or measuring timber ic;
probably as ancient as logging. When that timberoperator King Solomon logged the Forest of Lebanon, he
no doubt used scalers to keep him informed periodically
as to the quantity and quality of timber cut.

No records exist as to the units of measurements
used in those tar-off days, but one can presume that
King Solomon, with all his wisdom, had no knowledge
of the Doyle rule or the cord system of wood measurement. These were a 19th century creation of the
fogging industry on the North American Continent.
The Doyle rule has been adequately explained
in the Scalers' Manual issued by the Department of
Lands and Forests, Province of Ontario.
In common
with other log rules, a scaler take's no less than two
measurements and records same . They are the length
ond diameter of the log. The cord system of measurment 1s another story. Its origin is obscure but the
following explanation is probably the truth.
After
the early settlers landed on this continent, in the course
of time they were called on to produce fuelwood for
the town dwellers. They used one-horse sleds for
transportation. A load was piled on a rack with stakes
eight feet apart and tour feet high. The wood was
cut tour feet long. In a short time the purchasers
and sellers of this fuel-wood referred to a load as a·
cord Eventually this unit of measurement was adopted
by large scale buyers of rough cut wood products,
P.articularly pulp and paper mi I ls, largely because (a)
the cutters of wood knew from experience what a cord
meant, (b) it was a quick, simple method of measuring.
The efficiency of th1s method ot wood measurement is
proven by the fact that most of the pulpwood produced
1s sold on a cord basis.
However, it has its drawbacks. The solid wood
content of measured stacked wood varies. This variation is caused by loose piling, poor trimming of limbs
etc. This often produced a difference of opinion as
to quantity between the buyers and sellers of rough
cut wood products. Disagreements became so common
it was found necessary to hire men whose sole j'Jb in
the woods was to measure the wood produced.· An
interesting sidelight to the above is that scalers have
occasionally been referred to as rogues with rules in

AN EASY JOB
As nearly everyone knows, an executive has
practically nothing to do. That is, except to decide
what is to be done, to tell somebody to do it, to listen
to reasons why it should be done by somebody else,
or why it should be done in a different way; to prepare
arguments in rebuttal that shall be convincing and
conciusive; to follow up to see 1f the thing has been
done; To discover that it hasn't; To inquire why; To
listen to excuses from the person who should have
dooe it; To follow up a second time to see if the thing
has been done, only to discoverThat it has been done incorrectly; to point out
how it should have been done; to conclude that as
long as it has been done it may as well be left as it is;
to wonder if it is not time to get rid of a person who
cannot do a thing right; to reflect that the person at
fault has a wife and seven kids, and that certainly--

I

I

No other executive would put up with him for
another moment, and that in al.I probability any successor would be just as bad and maybe worse; To consider
how much simpler and better the thing would hav~
been done had he done it himself in the first place;
To reflect sadly that if he had done it himself he
would have been able to do it right in twenty minutes,
but that as things turned out he himself spent two
days trying to find out why it was that it had taken
somebody else three weeks to do it wrong, and then
realized that such an idea would strike at the very
roots ot the belief of all employees that "An executive
has nothing to do!'

LOG BOOK

ULY, 1948

A Loggers Handbook of Instructions
Reprinted herewith is the material on the front
inside cover of the Northeastern Loggers Handbook
which has for its motto "easier and safer work, greater
production (more pay) and better living condition./·.
"If you want to be a mechanic, you will easily find
plenty of good books which will tell you what you need
TO know.
You will also find plenty of instructors and
training shops."
What about the young man who wants to make
his living by logging? For him there is no good source
of information to which he can turn. The books and
courses on logging are for the logging engineers-not
tor the fellow who uses the axe and crosscut.
Why shouldn't there be a simple illustrated hand
book which will tell the young woodsman (or the green
woodsman) what he needs to know about the care and
use of his tools and the best of the old and the new
techniques of, and devices for logging? He needs to
know the "tricks of the trade'' as much as anyone.
We hope that these pages, together with other
short papers like it, will finally be put together in a
printed Northeastern Loggers' Handbook. We ore putting it out in this form first because there seems to be
an urgent need for this sort of information; and because
we need the help and advice of persons who know about
logging in our region before printing. We want the
the experienced logger to tell us what important things
we have missed and where our advice is not good. We
want the young man going into the woods for the first
time to tell us what parts of it he finds hard to understand, to suggest how it can be made more useful to
him. We would like the equipment manufacturers to
check our recommendations for use of their products

Pulpwood Sinkage Loss
The Great Lakes Paper Company, Limited Woodlands Department have been and are conducting some
tests to check the sinkage loss of pulpwood. These
tests are under the supervision of Mr. L. Murphy, Chief
Scaler and for the information of all companies here is
Ci brief report from Mr. Murphy.
It is emphasized that these Tests are far trom
complete but is hoped that the information published
herewith may lead to other companies making tests or,
1f tests have been made, to pass this valuable information to others through the medium of this booklet.
PURPOSE.
The purpose of these sinkage tests was from an
operational viewpoint only. Soil conditions, wood densities, age classifications, etc. were not taken into consideration and the logs used were selected only as ta
species

Dog River, dropped several feet during the river drive
so that it was impossoble to complete the test. How
ever, at Valora, the monthly tests will be made through
out the summer of 1948 to show the effects when this
pulpwood 1s left in the water for two seasons.
It is planned to make further tests in the various
areas where delivery of pulpwood and logs is made b
water transportation.
CONCLUSIONS
Sufficient tests have not as yet been made upon r
which to base definite conclusions. However, it is conceivable that much of the annual sinkage loss on balsam pulpwood could be eliminated by early cutting.

It is assumed that baisam cut during the winter
season would suffer the same sinkage loss as green
balsam cur in the summer and watered immediately.

Note: Statistics to date are on page 9 (oppos·1te page)

METHOD:
Each log was numbered by means of a small metal
tag before being placed in the water. Notes were
recorded showing ( 1) the species, (2) whether the log
was butt, centre or top, (3) the date cut, (4) the average
diameter and (5) any apparent defect. The logs were
securely boomed in a sheltered bay and each month
thereafter a test for sinkage loss was carefully made.

"We must beware of trying to build
a society in which nobody counts for anything except the politicians and the officials,
a society where enterprise gains no reward
and thrift no privilege."

RESULTS·
The results to date are recorded here. During
the month of June 1947, the water level at Camp 117,

The First Pres-to-Logs
by Albert Sideen
A number of years ago when I was living on
my father' s farm, an American tourist gave me ten
dollars to look after his fish worms for the winter.
I fed the worms oat meal every day and they
grew large and became very fat. One day I was hauling sawdust for the icehouse.
The wagon-box had
some holes in it through which the sawdust trickled
out along the road. The worms were out playing in
the yard and started to eat the sawdust..
I was very
busy and forgot to put the worms in their box that
night. The next morning the worms were all gone.
I located them down by the sawdust pile at the mill.
They had eaten so much sawdust during the night,
they were all dead.
! borrowed an extra team of horses from our
neighbour and we skidded the worms up to the yard
where we sawed them up for firewood .
The sawdust filled worms produced enough fire~
wood to keep our three box-stoves going all winter and
we sold eleven cords to our neighbours.

Newsprint Made From Wheat Straw at Thorold Plant
Newsprint made in part from wheat straw - instead of wood pulp has been produced in quantity at
the Ontario Paper Company Limited, plant at Thoroid
i t was announced.
The announcement, in a prepared statement,
said 50 tons was manufactured-"Fi rst commercial
tonnage in North America" of such newsprint.
The production is an outcome of the straw-pulpi ng technique developed at the Peoria, Ill., laboratory
of the United States Agriculture Department
''The experiment disclosed that while use of
straw as a substitute for wood pulp raised newsprint
production costs somewhat, straw fibre could be used
more advantageously in producing higher-grade papers
which would improve wood supplies for newsprint manufacture" the statement said
"Research officials say that if the new techique
is developed on an extensive commercial basis it will
open iucrative markets for straw, especially in the
American mid-west and Canadian prairies."

The Pulpwood Salvage Association
Wherever there are wood storages, rafting and
towing operations, there is bound to be a certain
amount of loss. A heavy wind rolling the booms: a
broken boom, rounding-up a raft or a loading operationtion-any one, or a combination of these, may cause
sticks of pulpwood or logs to get loose, drift away and
become salvage wood.
Each stick of pulpwood and each log is supposed
to be stamped with the ownership mark of the company
which cut' the wood. On actual practice, all sticks
are not stamped). Under the laws of Canada and
the United States, the ownership right to this wood is
retained by the company whose stamp is on the stick
and it is against the law and punishable under the
criminal code for any unauthorized person or persons
to take this wood without authority from the owner.
To look after this salvage wood and to simplify
and co-ordinate the distribution of salvage wood which
is picked up, the Pulpwood Salvage Association was
formed in 1938 as a non-profit organization by companies who had towing or rafting operations on Lake
Superior and Lake Nipigon
This year the shore-line from the Inter-national
Boundry the Pigion River to Sault Ste. Marie is
divided into nineteen areas and the shore-line of Lake
Nipigon has been divided into six areas. Contracts
are made between contractors (known as wood-pickers)
and the Association, alloting the contractor a certain
area and stating the terms and conditions of picking
the shore-line and delivering the wood.
There is very litttle towing and rafting on the
south (United States) shore of Lake Superior now but

some pulpwood is still towed across the lake. A check
is kept on the south shore and when there is sufficie~t
salvage wood accumulated in an area, a contract 1s
let by the Pulpwood Salvage Association to cover the
the salvage of the wood.
When a wood-picker has filled his booms, the
Pulpwood Salvage Association is notified and an officer
of the association proceeds to the salvage storage and
and checks the wood tor ownership. After this check
arrangements ore made for the nearest compo~y _to
take over the wood, or, if one company hos a mo1ontv
ot wood ·i n the raft, they have first opportunity to
take deliver)
The company which takes delivery of the raft is.
charged with the wood and pays the wood-pic~er.
Companies who have wood in the raft are credited
with their wood and at the end of each season on
accounting takes place. Companies which have received
the wood pay up for the perce~tage of it belongi_n~ t~
other companies and payment 1s made to the ongma1
owners of the wood.
This arrangement works out very well and the
salvaging of merchantible wood is controlled. Last
year approximately 25,000 cords of pulpwood and log5
were salvaged.

ALL CH.LffiGES DROP:PED BECAUSE T.AMBl,YN DIDN'T DARE COME!
All charges have been dropped against the persons arrested for
trespassing at the residence of Lakehead University President
w. G. Tamblyn on May 1.
The Crown A ttor.ney was forced to withdraw the charges because
Tamblyn, the cooplainant, failed to show up 1.n court Nov. 10th to
testify-- even thoueh he had been subpoenaed by the Crown.
In the New Canada September Special Supplement on Lakehead U.,
we reported that Tamblyn was afraid to come to court, and we
were right.
TAMBLYN SNUBB:i:m HIS NOSE AT THE COURTSt
The Crown Attorney was called the ni ~ht before and told that
Tamblyn couldn't come to the trial because he was in Ottawa.
This is an outrageous snub at the courts, and OLM Chairman Gary
Perly, who was representing most of the defendants, demanded that
Tamblyn be punished for contempt of court.
Provincial Oau~t Judge Duthie asreed tha~ it was serious that
TaI!lblyn ignored a subpoena (which is like a court order to appear
and give testimony) but said that he did not have the jurisdiction
to prosecute Tamblyn and pointed out that ~he Crown Attorney
could take action asai.n st Tamblyn.
TAMBLYN LIED!
The si tuatio.n became much more serious when it was discovered
after the trial that Tamblyn wasn't in Ottawa at all, but was
right here in Thunder Bay.
THE CROWN ATTORHEY IS NOW CONSIDERING L.:..YING CRIMIN.AL CH..:iRGES
AG.UNST W. G. TAMBLYN.
Tamblyn thought he could use the courts for his own vindictive
political purposes:
- he was the complainant who caused the charees to be laid;
-- then, as the boss of two of the defendants, Brian Leekley and
Margie Wally, he fired them using their being arrested as
justification before public opinion;
-- he forced the 11 defendants, the Judge, the Crown Attorney,
the police, and the witnesses to come to court 4 ti~es and to
spend a great deal of time, money, and energy preparing a case;
-- then, at the very last moment, 193 days after the event,
Tamblyn didn't show up and caused the charges to be dropped.
We demand that Tamblyn iJ111:1ediately rehire all those he fired
and pay the losses of all those harmed by his actions.
IT IS TIME FOR JUSTICE AT LAKEHlUD.UNIVERSITYl
REHIRE THE THUNDER B.-1.Y THREEl
P~Y THE LOSSES OF THOSE UNJUSTLY PROSECUTED!

He did, however, continued the President, accept a~ 1nvitat1on to visit the campus
and speak to Senate
The spe(1al Senate meeting was called for last Friday to discus ~ the
report from the Interim B~dget Committee a~d the report from the AcadAmlc Planning
Committe. who have been 1nterviev1ing an tr!e departmental Chairmen, with in the last
few w02ks in order to determine the val1d1~y of programs and where poss i bl e cuts
m1ght be made
The Budget comm1tte report was oresented by Dr. Kent and three definate
motions came out of the report and were passed by Senate 1hese, in effect, were:
1. That Facult ]es be examined for a poss1ble realignment into fewer
Faculties to reduce ddministrat1ve costs.
2. ~hat there would be a proportional reduction in administrative
officers 1f faculty cuts were made.
3. That there be no replacement in the Office of the President from
outside the UniversH_y and that there be an ·interim Acting Pres1dent,
The report of the Academic Planning Committee was far less def1n~te.
Dr Engholm, stated that in view of the impossibility

Dr. Z1mmerman questioned the President at some length, as to the availIt was
s tated that the to~plete budget h2d not yet been compiled, so that this could not
~'C t be given to th 2 Budget Committee.
It was then pointed out that perhaps 1t was
the job of th0 Budqet Committee to prepare the buJget. The President refused to
d1scuss the matter any further. In the immediate following lull 1n discussion, Dr.
Melnyk questioned the Pres ident about the annual operating budget of the Computor

Academic and Administrative Staff

SUBJECT:

Mid-Canada Development Corridor Conference
First Session - Lakehead University, August
18th to 22nd, 1969

You recently received a small pamphlet outlining the
purpose of the Conference and the basic topics that will be
discussed. We are expecting approximately 75 participants from
business, industry, major unions and the professions, 25 governmental
representatives from the provinces and Federal Government, 25
representatives from the eleven sponsoring universities and
approximately 25 key speakers, panelists etc., for a total of 150
participants. With the exception of the university representatives
each participant has been asked to contribute $5000 to the Mid-Canada
Development Corridor Foundation. This money covers all expenditures
in connection with the August 1969 session at Lakehead University,
the August 1970 session at a pla.ce in the Corridor yet to be named
and the ten day trip through the corridor area in the fall of 1969.
Some members of the academic staff of Lakehead
University have indicated an interest in attending at least some of
the sessions a.t Lakehead University in August 1969. The basic format
for the Conference is as follows:
Tuesday morning -

4 panelists, each speaking for approximately 15
minutes will discuss Resources (Human and Natural).
Participants will then break up into discussion
groups of about 20 persons and after approximately
1 hour to l½ hours will report back to the
plenary session with the results of their
discussion.
In the afternoon the same format
will be used to discuss Industrialization.

Wednesday morning - Urbanization will be the topic (Human and
Environmental Factors). Wednesday afternoon
will be a free afternoon with some social events
planned.

Continued ........ .

�22222222222222

Thursday

Transportation and Communications will be the
main topic followed by Finance and Trade
Implications in the afternoon.

Friday morning -

There will be a summary of the proceeding days
discussions and conclusions.

If you are interested in attending any of the sessions
please let me know by April 30th. Please indicate which topic
or topics you would be most interested in attending. Please indicate
if you wish to attend the panel discussions or the group discussions
or both.
(There will be more room at the panel discussions) Because
of limitations of space it is possible that there will not be
enough room for everyone who is interested. We will however do
our very best to accomodate all of you who would like to attend.
