Quick Facts

History & Context

Milling Around the North Country News of the big mills sawing lumber during the days when the virgin white pine was being harvested was often the subject matter for the newspaper writers of the day. They expounded in great detail about the "champion" daily and annual cuts of prime lumber; the size and kind of saws used in the mill, the power source, and the methods of piling for drying. They also told in heroic measures of men at the head of the corporations who owned these mills and of the ability and cleverness of the superintendents in charge of the operation. Historians, perforce, followed this lead--what was news then was later history. Few of either kind of writer chronicled the activities of the small mills producing lumber at the same time or tell of their importance in the harvest.
