This is the final step in the ncza pachaging operation -afflyins a l>neumatic clamp ouer the cap. It is allouted to stay in that position until another pachagc comes along, ufon zahich the clamp is removed, and the lachase is swung "*" ,li_:;:::.that zuitt tahe it to the ened to the lumber firmly enough to stand any treatment it is. likely to receive on the way from the re-manufacturing plant to the building lot.

Several interesting tests proved this. To begin with, there were adhesion-tests. These showed the pac[age cap- able of .sustaining afar greater weight than- that"of the lumber it is required to hold. Then there were drop-tests which determined that the package is capable of^ withstanding impacts either full on its end or on one corner of one edge of its end. Finally, an unusual series of tests was conducted on a machine that subjected the packaged lumber to the same racking and weaving that would be eicountered duling an ordinary freight-shipment across the country.

It is interesting to note that these weaving and rac(ing tests proved successful because the cambric tape that at.-tached the new fibre band to the lumber smootfies out the sharp edge thatthe bank presented when attached with staples. This permits of easy sliding of one package across another.

As,a consequence of this detail, not only will the lumber stand shipment better than in the first 4-Square packare. but also it can be loaded into a car more effeitivelv'and cin b_e piled into a lumber shed more quickly and easiiy. While the taped package is not torn off br damagecl by ihis slid-

New Type of Packaging "4 Square" Lumber

- Mr. Payzant expressed the attitude of executives and millmen in the Weyerhaeuser affiliation when he said:

"We believe we now have the final machine and the final package. A few minor details have been checked up since ifte tirrt installation of the new equipment. These are being worked out in the successive machines as they are built, .n-d are being installed on the other improved-type machines now in operation. But the mechanical problems co-nnected with packagirtg lumber have been solved. Initial shipments of material in the new container have exceeded oui highest hopes for splendid results upon delivery to the dealers'vards'

"With this part of the program entirely revised to a satisfactorv status-, we feel more than ever that 4-SQUARE is a dernonstrated success, and the organization now is in a position to concentrate upon the fullest development of the merchandising aspects of the plan."
