Illustrations photographs and drawings/diagrams. Tabular Data. Appendix. Bibliography. Check List. Cover has some tears wear and soiling. Foreword by Axel H. Oxholm Director of the National Committee on Wood Utilization. The contents address Factors to Consider First by Nelson S. Perkins; Judging the Exterior Construction; The Plan; Structural Features and Mechanical Installations. Axel H. Oxholm was also at one time chief Lumber division Bureau of foreign and domestic commerce. United States Department of commerce. Nelson Secor Perkins 14 Apr 1894 - 1 Aug 1985 was a noted author and authority and is regarded as one of the key pioneers in the development and use of plywood. The National Committee on Wood Utilization was organized by Herbert Hoover as Secretary of Commerce and comprised about 200 members representing manufacturers distributors and consumers of forest products. Its object was to work for closer utilization of the U.S.'s timber resources. The committee whose headquarters were in the Department of Commerce Washington D.C. worked in close cooperation with a number of official and private organizations notably the Bureau of Standards of the Department of Commerce and the Forest Products Laboratory of the Forest Service Department of Agriculture. President Roosevelt by Executive Order 6179-B Abolished of the National Committee on Wood Utilization. Dated June 16 1933 the Executive Order stated "There is hereby abolished The National Committee on Wood Utilization. All the property of every kind files and records etc. belonging thereto are hereby transferred to the custody of the Secretary of Commerce for such disposition as he may determine; provided that if the forest products industries desire to continue in their own quarters and at their own expense the work heretofore performed by the National Committee on Wood Utilization the Secretary of Commerce may permit them to have access to or the use of the records and files of the Committee." Plywood is a composite material manufactured from thin layers or "plies" of wood veneer that have been stacked and glued together. It is an engineered wood from the family of manufactured boards which include plywood medium-density fibreboard MDF oriented strand board OSB and particle board or chipboard. All plywoods bind resin and wood fibre sheets cellulose cells are long strong and thin to form a composite material. The sheets of wood are stacked such that each layer has its grain set typically see below perpendicular to its adjacent layers. This alternation of the grain is called cross-graining and has several important benefits: it reduces the tendency of wood to split when nailed at the edges; it reduces thickness swelling and shrinkage providing improved dimensional stability; and it makes the strength of the panel consistent across all directions. There is usually an odd number of plies so that the sheet is balanced that is the surface layers have their grains set parallel to one another. This balance reduces warping. Because plywood is bonded with grains running against one another and with an odd number of composite parts it has high stiffness perpendicular to the grain direction of the surface ply. Smaller thinner and lower-quality plywoods may only have their plies layers arranged at right angles to each other. Some better-quality plywood products by design have five plies in steps of 45 degrees 0 45 90 135 and 180 degrees giving strength in multiple axes. United States Government Printing Office paperback
19106626New Orleans; New York: The Board of Trade; Printed by H. R. Elliot & Co. Printers and Embossers 1910. Stapled booklet 10.25 x 15.25 cm. 14 unnumbered leaves; printed text decorated with red borders on rectos only. Cover title: Recipes for Cooking Rice. Author information inferred from external evidence. Printer from rear panel of wrappers. ~ Evident FIRST EDITION. A promotional publication designed “to create a greater interest†in a foodstuff that had yet to become a staple in many parts of the United States. With a dozen recipes including Gumbo Soup Jambalaya Belle Calas fritters Rice Pudding Riz au Lait. ~ The phrase “Louisiana Rice Exhibit†can be found in reference to displays in the agricultural halls of world’s fairs – the World’s Columbian Exposition Chicago 1893 for instance as well as the Louisiana Purchase Exposition St. Louis 1904 – but in the event the phrase is better understood not as an installation but as a program. The New Orleans Board of Trade had indeed exploited opportunities to educate the public by such means cf A. C. Cantley “Rice Display by Louisiana at World's Fair of 1904†The Planter and Sugar Manufacturer 32 no. 7 February 13 1904 page 121 but it would have been highly unlikely for booklets such as How to Cook Rice to have been produced specifically for them without bearing any mark of the association. Moreover Louisiana Rice Exhibits so-named were also staged at parish fairs livestock shows even horse races. Their visual aspect was meant to entrance and amuse. “The New Orleans Board of Trade made a very splendid exhibit†a trade paper reported “at the National Farm and Livestock Show with a display of all the products it handles with the centerpiece a working model of a rice mill†“Current Rice News Notes†The Rice Journal and Southern Farmer 19 no. 12 December 1916 page 33. ~ Founded in 1880 the Board itself coordinated among many other activities rice shipments from mills in Louisiana and to a smaller extent from eastern Texas and Arkansas too. In this case their printing contract with H. R. Elliot & Co. places the publication later than the Chicago Exposition as this form of name was not in use until after 1900 “The Manufacturing Stationer†Walden’s Stationer and Printer 31 Spring 1909 page 16. The date of issue proposed here rests on reports that the Board of Trade distributed booklets in or perhaps slightly before 1910 a note for example from the American Poultry World recorded that recipes from the Louisiana Rice Exhibit of New Orleans had been received 1 no. 5 March 1910 pages 354-355. ~ Interior clean and bright. Stapled in ivory wrappers with gilt illustration of rice plants overseen by a pelican in honor of the Pelican State. Near fine. OCLC locates four copies; Uhler 252; New Orleans Culinary History Group page 152; not in Bitting Brown or Cagle. [The Board of Trade; Printed by] H. R. Elliot & Co., Printers and Embossers paperback
