ALASKA SPRUCE SUPPLIES
DOUGLAS WITH FURNITURE
DOUGLAS. March 25?To the ordi
nary worker In wood, the Alaska
spruce lumber Is a vexatious problem
for finishing and furuiture working,
but the carpenters and cabinet-mak
ers of Douglas Island' have succedcd
lu solving the problem. Much of the
furniture in the stores, barrooms, and
homes of Douglas Is made from Alas
ka spruce. With spruce wood, cut at
the proper age and season, and prop
erly dried, It docs not shrink or warp
when made into furniture, and is one
of the most beautiful of woods, taking
a polish that brings out the grains In
attractive shading and tints.
The furniture and finishings of tho
First Territorial Dank shows an ex
ample of what can be done with Alas
ka spruce. The desks and tables In
that Institution are rich and solid. The
arches, pillars and finishings In the
Island hotel are being mado of the
same wood, and examples of the var
ious uses to which Spruce cabinet
work are used throughout Douglas
shows possibilities for extending the
industry over a wide field in furniture |
construction.
