in the grain. These are described as follows:
"Growth Rings—These are very distinct in
walnut and produce the 'stripe' effect in quar-
tered wood. In plain sawed and rotary cut
wood these growth ring lines produce the more
or less concentric irregular lines.
"Wood Pores—In each growth ring occur
tiny but distinctly visible tubes or pores. These
are larger and more numerous in the Spring
wood and smaller and fewer in the Summer
wood of each growth ring. These pores ap-
pear as fine lines, dashes or dots, accordingly as
the wood is cut with the grain or slightly
across the grain.
"Wavy Grain—In stumps and occasionally in
'figured' trees the grain, instead of being per-
fectly straight and uniform, is wavy and on
smooth surface shows as 'cross figure' or
'fiddle back' and countless interesting patterns.
"In lumber the usual figure is a stripe, if
quarter-sawed, otherwise it is merely the 'plain'
figure. Highly figured lumber is scarce and ex-
pensive.
very attractive in panels. In stump wood and
the other highly figured pieces, the panels are
usually center matched, either two pieces or
four pieces, and it is this type that produces
the symmetrical and highly decorative panels.
These matched effects can also be obtained
from plainer kinds of walnut and produce a
striking appearance."
