Timber cutting from a Massachusetts paper
In a paper by Timothy Pickering presented to the Massachusetts agricultural society, it is shown that oak timber felled in May lasts 22 years while February timber lasts 12. A May entabbed well sweep peeled bark lasts 17 years, birch cut in winter with bark attached lasts only a year. Timber cut in June should be sawed immediately, as it then works easier.
