Byfthe use of special machinery do signed at the Forest Products labora tory, boxes can be artificially subject ed to the same kind of shocks and strains they receive in actual trans port From these teats It has been possible to determine the correct amount and quality of material to use, the result of defects In the wood, the adaptability of different species of wood, and the best types of beat and crate construction. The results of these investigations have recently been compiled by the Forest Service and published in book form under a co-operative arrangement with the National Association of Box Manufacturers. In addition the book Includes the standardised specifications for box making tentatively adopted by tbe American Society for Testing Mate rials, and also a key to the identifica tion of the chief wood species used in the construction of boxes and crates.
