Although over 40 years have passed since Jacobs (1945) convincingly established the basic radial pattern of residual growth stress in growing trees, yet this phenomenon is still not widely appreciated in wood science and technology circles. This is in spite of the fact that the presence of these stresses of sizeable magnitudes has long been recognized as a primary cause of shakes and splits in logs as well as the warping of lumber sawn in the green condition. The presentation of the subject of growth stresses in trees presents some special problems due to the wide range of specialists who potentially might have an interest in the subject. For example, tree physiologists interested in questions such as the relation of mechanical stress to stem taper and the role of reaction wood and gravity forces in determining tree crown form encounter growth stress models. Silvi culturists interested in the relation ofthinning practices to wood quality find that wood properties are correlated with growth stress levels which are in turn significantly changed by cutting practices. Wood techno logists interested in the relation of residual growth stress gradients in green logs to the dimensional quality of sawn and seasoned lumber are forced to take a more quantitative approach to the effect of growth stresses than might have been the case in the past.

Excerpt from Growth in Trees A tree may be considered as a tall cone of wood terminating in leafy expanses. The base of the cone is subdivided into myriads Of rootlets, through the surfaces of which the soil-solutions enter, and the water, passing upward, is transpired from the leaves. The trunk of a tree is largely composed of dead cells, but inclosing it is a thin sheet of spindle-form cambium cells1 in 2 to 10 or more layers, which in the growing season enlarge in thickness and divide lengthwise, those on the outside becoming transformed into cork and phloem and those on the inner into wood cells and vessels. Extending from the center of the trunk are thin sheets or rays of the medulla or pith Of the young stem. The most recently formed cells of these elements are still living and in some trees the medullary cells remain alive for several years, so that the woody cylinder Of the tree may comprise wood-cells or tracheids, vessels, and thin-wall ray cells, some of which are alive. External to the cambium are sieve cells, bast fibers, etc., and cork cells, inclosed in a bark which varies widely as to structure in different species.

Wood is the usual end product of a forestry operation. Because of its importance, numerous studies have been made relative to wood prop erties, the causes of wood variation, and how best to develop wood for desired products. There is voluminous literature related to these subjects, but it is neither well known nor appreciated by foresters because the publications are often not available or are not well understood by the forester or by those who use the wood. Frequently, the literature is confusing and contradictory, making it difficult for the nonspecialist to use what information is available. In order to produce and use wood efficiently, the variation pat terns within trees, among trees within species, and among species must be understood. This also requires some knowledge of the causes of variation and the effects of different wood properties upon utiliza tion. The information about variation patterns, their causes, and con trol and effect upon the product must be known by the tree grower, the tree breeder, and the tree harvester as well as by those who ultimately convert wood into a final, salable product.
