To this amount of manufactured lumber may be added about two hundred and fifty thousand tons of square timber; this is not far from the annual amount manufactured in this province. Four dollars per ton is about a medium price; this gives a product of $1,000,000. To this we may add, as the product of masts, staves, shingles, per annum, $20,000.[ [26]
Grand total of the lumbering produce in dollars, reckoning four dollars to the pound:
| Long lumber | $1,041,840 |
| Square timber | 1,000,000 |
| Other lumber as above | 20,000 |
| $2,061,840. |
THE END.
