Excerpt from Guidebook for the Identification of Woods Used for Ties and Timbers The purpose of this guidebook is to point out the differences which are Of practical value in the identification of the various species Of native woods used for ties and timbers. It is intended primarily for inspectors; but since it includes most of our commercial species, it will, no doubt, be serviceable to others. The identification of wood by general appearance requires long experience and is a method difficult or impossible to describe to an inexperienced man. Furthermore, with the growing use of wood preservatives and the closer utilization Of our forest resources the number Of species used for ties is increasing, and inspectors are called upon to be familiar with a larger number Of woods. Experienced inspectors may be able to determine the kind Of wood in most of the ties they commonly handle by the color and general character of the wood; but in case Of doubt as to the species it is necessary to look for more specific distinctions.
