My co-worker's in-laws claim that when they first started burning wood, they made that mistake. With the lights out, you could read by the glow of the cast iron stove and stovepipe. They slept in shifts that night. Wouldn't dare try to cool it with anything but air when it's that hot.
Guess it was about 20 below that night, they had windows open and fans going, and still pushing 100 inside.
Thought I had some hedgeapple located, but it turned out to be locust. And when I moved out here, the guy I was working with told me some trees were hedgeapple, but my current co-workers father-in-law says they are burr oak. We cut up a couple that had to come out, and there was acorn lids on the ground under them.
That stuff is hard. When I hit the stump with the axe, it almost rang like hitting steel. The locust laughs at the 8 pound splitting axe. Stretches out a chain pretty well too, even a good Stihl chain.
What the guy told me were cottonwood are also elm, too.
We only get about 20 inches of rain a year around here, but if I knock down anything over about 6 inches in diameter, if I don't knock it down into 6 foot or shorter lengths, it will still rot inside within 2 years.
