Firewood is split so that it will start and burn more readily providing quicker and a hotter heat. If firewood were left "in the round" it will take forever to start (likely never). The slender peices make for better handling as well. To help it dry faster and to provide greater surface area when you're trying to build the fire.

How long should firewood season?
Firewood typically will reach its driest state after about 9 months, or more importantly, one summer. The heat, wind, and lack of precipitation are what dry the wood. After a summer, the wood will reach a moisture content of about <20 %. Once it reaches this state, it doesn't matter if the wood is 9 months or 9 years, the wood won't get any drier. There are variables such as wood type, weather conditions, air flow etc., but typically a summer season is the most crucial factor. It should be noted that wood has to be cut AND split in order to dry in this period. Wood that is cut for 9 months and then split a week prior to being sold will not be dry. With this drying schedule, it becomes apparent how much time goes into producing good dry firewood.

How do you split firewood?
Splitting firewood can be done mechanically or by hand. A hydraulic wood splitter can make splitting large amounts of firewood easy. These units can be expensive, around $1,000 for one powered by a gas engine. Splitting firewood by hand using a splitting axe or maul is the more traditional way. The Fiskars x27 splitting axe is a great tool. Place the log to be split on top of another larger log to prevent the axe head from going into the dirt. A maul is heavier and can wear you out quickly even though it does work well. The species of wood will dictate how easy it is to split. Some woods like ash are known to split easily, while others can be much more difficult.

Why is wood split into slender pieces and the pieces of wood arranged loosely in the stove for cooking with the use of fine wood?
Whether for cooking or heating, and whether in a stove or camp fire, wood burns best when lit and built using smaller, slender pieces first, and in a "tent" or tepee style with one end touching the other pieces where they meet. Slender, small wood catches and burns fast. For a strong, long-lasting fire, pieces are arranged loosely, with thinner pieces at the center (tepee style) and a crisscrossing base at the bottom, then, loosely laying larger pieces of wood against the tepee on all of the outside edges. The larger wood burns more slowly with greater heat due to its mass. As the larger wood burns, it will break through near the centers; a human can use a tool or stick to push the untouched leftovers closer into the fire. Then, to keep the fire going, you'd add more large pieces at the outside edges. And repeat.
