The Pace Mill

 

At Pace, the Pace Company engaged in sawmill and turpentine operations in a big way until the "thirties." Mr. Pace had long been an advocate of "sustained yield" lumbering operations and through his studies of that problem hit upon pulp production as the most satisfactory outlet for "sustained yield" lumbering.
