Trees Were skidded in tree lengths to the assembly yards where poles and pulpwood were produced. When the poles Were cut to proper lengths, the peeling gang moved in - six men - who moved the poles to the machine, operated the ma- chine and stacked the peeled poles in a special way to facilit-i ate quick drying. ‘ Operations were under the direction of Zone Foremen William Irwin and Clifford Duckworth from the Angus Zone Headquarters with De- partment staff from the Orr Lake, Hendrie and Wildman fo- rests taking part.
