ANG ALAMAT NG MAKOPA
Sinasabing may isang bayang hindi nakakilala ng gutom dahil may isang gong o batingaw silang nagkakaloob ng kanilang kahilingan. Nabalitaan ito ng mga tulisan kaya nag-ambisyon silang nakawin ang gong at ilipat ito sa ibang lugar. Sa takot ng mga tao sa pagsalakay ng mga tulisan, ibinaon nila ang gong sa isang lugar na malapit sa gubat.
Sumalakay nga ang mga tulisan. Nakipaglaban ang mga taong-bayan hanggang maitaboy paalis ang mga gustong magnakaw ng kanilang gong. Sa kasawiang-palad, marami-rami rin ang namatay. Kabilang dito ang mga nagbaon ng gong. Samakatwid, walang makapagsabi kung saan nakatago ang gong.
Ilang taon ang lumipas at hindi pa rin nakikita ang gong.Naghihirap na ang mga tao. Isang araw, isang bata ang napadako sa tabi ng gubat at nakakita ng isang punong may bungang hugis batingaw (kahugis ng gong na nawawala). Inakyat ng bata ang puno at tinikman ang bunga. Nasarapan siya kaya nag-uwi pa para sa mga kababayan. Nang makita ng mga kababayan niya ang bunga naghinala silang naroon sa punong iyon ang kanilang gong. Nagpuntahan ang mga tao roon at hinukay ang ugat ng puno. Totoo nga! Sa ilalim niyon nakabaon ang gong na susi ng kanilang kasaganaan. Nakuhang muli ang gong at nagkaroon pa ng punong may matamis na bungang hugis kampana ang mga taong-bayan.

The Wood:
General Characteristics: Heartwood light golden brown; sapwood lighter in color and quite distinct. Texture moderately fine; grain interlocked, often curly or wavy; lustrous.
Weight: Basic specific gravity (ovendry weight/green volume) 0.57; air-dry density 44 pcf.
Mechanical Properties: No information available.
Drying and Shrinkage: Reported to require careful seasoning. No information available on kiln schedule or shrinkage values.
Working Properties: Easy to work and takes a fine finish.

M 150 282-3Logs are delivered to a sawmill in southern Nigeria. African mahogany
(mostly Khaya ivorensis) is in high demand on overseas markets. Export of logs fro
this region, as well as from most other tropical areas, is being restricted.
M 150 282-2Band mills in Ghana are designed to handle logs 5 feet and more in
diameter. Obeche or Wawa (Triplochiton scleroxylon) logs yield lumber favored for
joinery and millwork.
M 150 273-14In many areas of the tropics, fast-growing species are being introduced
future supplies of fuel wood and industrial wood. Batai (Albizia falcataria) is
a favored plantation species in the Philipines.
M 150 273-13 Shores spp. is still the major timber group harvested in Southeast
Asia. With modern chain saws, fellers no longer need scaffolding to get above larg
buttresses.
M 150 281 Felling of white lauan or almon (Shorea a;mon) with axes in the early
1900s in the Philippines. Most hardwood plywood now imported into the USA is
produced from species of Shorea.
