Gottcha now.

Firewood it's $150-$200 a cord in KS. For milling, not sure, they used to use the heck out of them for cornerposts on fenclines, but not really sure if there is a lumber market for it. Most times it is so split it's hard to get good lumber out ot the larger peices, and the smaller ones are not usually that straight. Sorry, not much help I know.

They are also used for making bow staves; the transition wood (where the sapwood meets the heartwood) is supposed to be incredibly strong when you have a little of each-some flexible, some super strong. I don't know the combination, or which is supposed to be on the outside of the curve, but I'd do a google search on it. I know people will pay more than firewood prices for nice straight, tight grain. Maybe not a lot more, but definitely more. good luck.
