Must be of such character as will lay and give a good serviceable floor. The wood must be firm, serviceable and may contain all defects common to maple. Pieces with 1/4 full tongue admitted.

Third grade will not admit- knot holes over 3/8" in diameter or unsound knots where the unsound portion is over 1" in diameter; voids on ends or edges; or shake, heart checks, badly split ends and imperfections in manufacture which would materially impair the serviceability of the floor.

Bundles shall be 1-1/4' to 8', as the stock will produce. Not over 85% of the total footage shall be in bundles under 4'; and not more than 55% of the total footage shall be 1-1/4' bundles.
