Description: We can observe a lumber kiln under construction at the Kedgwick Fraser sawmill on August 11th, 1970. Softwood wooden boards measuring 2"x4" and 2"x6" would be dried in the kiln building. On the left, we see the mill where logs would be debarked and cut. The cone-shaped structures are the incinerators where unusable waste (mostly bark) was burned.
