The selection of unfinished lumber is going to determine the kind of stain that needs to be best suited for your finished wood project. Softwoods, such as pine, fir or poplar tend to be well known for resulting in an uneven appearance of stain on the grain.

Washing the brush liberally with mineral spirits will help loosen the oils and further washing with water and soap and hanging to air dry will help keep the bristles clean and soft for subsequent use.
