Pierce's Pacific Mille

Describes all the products that are made at the mill to not waste any by-product. Even sawdust is sold as a fuel. Shingles and small pieces of wood can be processed for many items, some more valuable than the actual lumber. The band saw is also more efficient and wastes less timber.
