Butter Tub Production

 
This photo shows one phase of butter tub production at the old Wooden Ware plant in Menasha.  The woman on the right is moving bundles of staves for the tubs.  They are made from Sitka Spruce, a wood that is relatively free from flavor and makes attractive containers.   We've talked about butter tubs in the past:  http://menashabook.blogspot.com/2012/05/butter-tubs.html
