IDK what they used back then, but 2x4s today are not pine, they are Douglas Fir.
Only if you're in the western US or Canada (or Japan/China where most
Doug fir is exported to)...the kids in the lumber yards around here
don't even know what "Doug fur" is; some kind of pet, maybe???
Douglas Fir is WAY too valuable to be used for residential framing,
even here in Canada./
Maybe true in Canada, but HD and lumberyards in the US are full of
cheap 2x4s made of Douglas Fir.
