A Couple Articles on Growing, Cutting, and Preparing Firewood

I know it is too late to do anything for this year's firewood needs, but spring is only a few months away. Via the Surviving Anarchy site, I found two articles from the Oklahoma State University extension office regarding firewood:

(1)  "Managing Your Woodlot for Firewood"(PDF)--a basic guide for managing a wood lot to grow better quality timber for sale or use, and culling other trees for firewood.

(2)  "Firewood: How to Obtain, Measure, Season, and Burn" (PDF). It has good information on stacking wood, and the BTU output of various types of wood.
