    Giant wood handling tractor that unloads thelogs from trucks in one bite, then puts themon the bed of a big saw, which cuts the logsinto H-foot lengths. From there the logs travelby conveyor into the mill.

    Chips and sawdust are also purchased by themill, and the trailers are automatically un-loaded by tipping up, as in picture above.Inside the mill, the logs are fed into a hopperand chipped. Part of the wood is also groundup, to give the paper a fine texture.

    Down she goes! Another old Fort Worth landmark, Stripling's Departmentstore bites the dust. The pictures were taken as the building was im-ploded, with just a pile of rubble left in the center right picture. Atbottom right it looks like downtown Berlin in 19M*, but in the foregroundis a hole where Leonard's Department Store once was...across the streetis pile of rubble that was Stripling's, and a block at upper left is allthat is left of the Globe building, being razed for more departments forthe county courthouse. Replacing Leonards and Striplings will be a mod-ern hotel.
