WAGES AND HOURS OF LABOR IN LUMBER MANUFACTURING: 1921.

INTRODUCTION.

Rates of wages per hour, hours of labor per week, and full-time
weekly earnings in lumber manufacturing in the United States are
presented in this report for 1921. Both the sawmill and logging
branches of the industry are included.
Summary figures for sawmills are shown for each year that data
were collected from 1907 to 1921. No data were collected for the
years 1914, 1916, 1917, 1918, and 1920.1
Figures for hours of labor, earnings, and production are based on
data for one pay period taken from the books of representative estab­
lishments by special agents of the bureau. The pay period varied in
length from one week to one month.
In selecting establishments from which to obtain data the bureau
undertook to have all States represented in which this industry is of
material importance, as indicated by the number of employees reported
by the United States Census of Manufactures in 1914, which are the
latest figures available.
Agents of the bureau found it difficult to obtain representative
mills in some States as a great deal of the timber in such States has
been cut out and consequently the number of mills has decreased
materially. In other States the number has increased. There was
depression in the industry in many sections during the period of
obtaining information.
Data were obtained from the July pay rolls of 3 establishments, the
August pay rolls of 60 establishments, the September pay rolls of 105
establishments, the October pay rolls of 78 establishments, the
November pay rolls of 30 establishments, and the December pay rolls
of 3 establishments.
as follows: Nineteenth Annual Report, covering 1890 to 1903; Bulletin No. 59 (July, 1905), covering 1903
and 1904; Bulletin No. 65 (July, 1906), covering 1904 and 1905; Bulletin No. 71 (July, 1907), covering 1905 and

According to the census of 1914 more than 88 per cent of the
total number of wage earners in the industry are found in the States
in which the establishments furnishing information to the Bureau
erf Labor Statistics are located. The number of employees for whom
the bureau obtained 1921 data and for whom detailed information
is presented in this report is about 9^ per cent of the total number
in the industry as reported in the census of 1914.
Table 2 shows the classified number of head saws, total number
of head saws, average number of head saws per mill, average number
of days the mills were in operation, and average days of operation
per head saw, by States, for the year ending August 31, 1921.
The head saw is the large saw which first receives the log in the
process of lumber manufacture. It is generally used to saw the log
into boards of finished thickness but may be employed to cut the log
into cants only, a resaw or gang saw being used in a later operation
to further reduce the size of the lumber.

* ;Not including 1 mill for which data were not reported.
* Not including 2 mills for which data were not reported.

Of the 277 mills, 124 had 1 head saw each, 129 had 2 head saws
each, 14 had 3 head saws each, 7 had 4 head saws each, and 3 had 5, 7,
and 8 head saws respectively, or a total of 472 head saws. The
mills averaged 1.7 head saws each.
The 472 head saws averaged 234 day turns and 33 night turns or a
total of 267 turns during the year. The mills averaged 236 days in
operation during the year.
The mills in Texas averaged 90 per cent of possible days in opera­
tion and the mills of Maine averaged 56 per cent. These two States
show the extreme range of time in operation.
Wages in the mills reached their highest point in the early part
of 1920. At the time the bureau’s agents obtained the schedules
in 1921 the mills reported an average approximate reduction in wages
of 35 per cent from the high point. This percentage of reduction1
varied in different sections of the country, being about 38 per cent
in the Southern States, about 34 per cent in the far Western States,!
and about 32 per cent in the Northern and Eastern States.
Table 3 shows by States the number of establishments, numoer
of employees, production in board feet per 1-man hour, labor cost
per 1-man hour, and cost per 1,000 board feet of lumber produced,
m 1-man hours and in wages. These figures are obtained from
earnings of productive wage workers only, and do not include earnings'
of managerial or office workers, supervisory employees, maintenance1
and repair workers, and saw filers.

The highest production of board feet per 1-man hour is 117 in Ore­
gon and California follows with 116. The lowest production is shown
in Georgia, 50 feet. The average for all the States reported is 79 feet.
Georgia leads in low labor cost per 1-man hour, with 17.6 cents, and
California with the highest, 47.2 cents. The average was 33.5 cents.
It required 8.5 1-man hours in Oregon and 20.1 hours in Georgia
to produce 1,000 board feet of lumber. The average for all States
was 12.7 hours.
The range of labor cost per 1,000 board feet of lumber was from
$2.92 in Alabama to $5.84 in Pennsylvania. The average for all
States was $4.24.
In making comparisons of different States, the quality of labor,
variety and size oi timber, and different methods of Handling should
be taken into consideration.
Table 4 shows index numbers of full-time hours per week, earnings
per hour, and full-time earnings per week, by occupations from 1907
to 1921. The base year used is 1913, as this year represents the period
immediately preceding the war. Doggers, setters, resawyers, and
machine feeders are compared for the years 1911 to 1921 only, as no
data prior to 1911 are available. No figures are given for saw tailers,
as separate data for this occupation were not secured prior to 1921.
The index numbers for earnings in most occupations show decreases
in 1921 from 1919. The peak of wages, however, occurred in 1920,
for which year no detailed data were gathered.

ANALYSIS OF GENERAL TABLES.

In addition to the text tables already shown three general sawmill
tables arc presented as follows:
Table A.—Average and classified full-time hours per week and
earnings per hour and average full-time weekly earnings, by occupa­
tions, in the United States, by years, 1907 to 1921.
Table B.—Average and classified full-time hours per week and
earnings per hour, and average full-time weekly earnings, by occu­
pations, in each State, 1921.
Table C.—Average number of days starts were made, average
full-time hours and earnings per week, and average actual hours
worked and earnings per pay period, by occupations, in each State,
1921. This table is divided into three sections by length of pay
periods, which are one week, two weeks or half month, and one month.
Full-time hours per week are the regular customary hours during
which under normal conditions employees in an occupation are on
duty. The full-time weekly earnings are the earnings oi the employee
working full time or the earnings on broken or short time reduced
to equivalent earnings for a full week.

In addition to the sawmill investigation information was obtained
in 1921 relating to the wages and hours of labor in logging in the
following 10 States:

ANALYSIS OF GENERAL TABLES.

In Table D are shown for each State from which data were obtained
the number of employees, the full-time hours per week, the wage rates,
and the equivalent rates per hour, by occupation.
Occupations are arranged alphabetically under each State and no
attempt has been made to combine those which, while having different
names, indicate the same or similar work. It has been thought
better to use the nomenclature in use in the locality and in the camp
from which the data were obtained. This will account for the
appearance in the same State of different terms meaning nearly if
not exactly the same thing.
