Synopsis
Excerpt from Utilization of Ash
In the lumber trade ash lumber is often -not distinguished as to kinds, all species being sold under the common name of ash. Much is sold under the name white ash to distinguish it from brown ash (also Known as black ash, F. M'gm), which has mechanical properties quite different from those of white ash but the same general appear ance and sti ucture and a more handsome grain. Lumber cut from all species, however, is often sold as white ash. The terms green, red, and Biltmore ash are not used at all in the lumber trade. Old growtli ash from Continuously wet river bottom land is Often called pumpkin ash because it is soft and brittle. The term is applied chiefly to pumpkin ash (f. Profunda) and green ash (f. Lanceo'lata). The terms black and blue ash are often used locally to designate standing ash timber, but do not necessarily refer to the species botanically known as F. M'gm and F. Guadrangulata. The term Oregon ash is seldom-used-ih-trade on the Pacific coast.
