HISTORY<br />
Vast stacks of chestnut wood awaited processing into extract and pulp. Although the 1937 caption refers to 15,000 cords of<br />
wood, at its peak the plant stored over 60,000 cords in its yards. Much of this chestnut wood came from the 300,000 acres of<br />
woodlands they controlled. At full production the plant used 8,000 cords or over a million cubic feet of chestnut wood per month.<br />
