Scope and content
Stump burning. The public was invited to view a demonstration of the new Zysset stump and root burner all day Saturday, May 13, 1922, at a Summit View farm. Three burners were to burn out stumps and roots from a tract of land owned by Electric Logging Co. of Tacoma. The Zysset machine claimed to burn through a four-foot stump in 24 hours. This photograph of a large hole dug on one side of the wide stump was one of a series of pictures taken by Marvin Boland of the event. G75.1-070 (TNT 5-11-22, p. 13-article)
