In the original plantation plots 1 to 8, inclusive, were one-half 

 acre each and plots 9 to 18, inclusive, were one-third acre each in 

 size. Some of the last plantings in these smaller plots did not suc- 

 ceed at all and there was no evidence of them in 1916. For this 

 reason they were left out of consideration in this examination and 

 only the actual areas on which trees were found to be growing 

 were taken. These are shown on the attached blueprint diagram 

 of the plantation. 



MEASUREMENTS. 



In 1916, five years after the trees were planted, breast height 

 diameter and total height measurements were made of all of the 

 trees in each plot. The diameters were measured in inches to the 

 nearest inch with calipers and the total height to the nearest even 

 foot with a long pole. Blanks w^ere counted and added to the 

 number of trees present to obtain the total number of trees 

 planted and the success of planting. The volume was obtained by 

 means of a locally constructed volume table and the results in 

 cubic feet of wood including bark obtained for all the trees on 

 each plot. For the sake of convenient comparison, the yield of 

 each plot in cubic feet was converted to the equivalent yield in 

 cords per acre, assuming that 70 cubic feet of this spiall-sized 

 wood would equal 128 cubic feet of space, the outside measure- 

 ments of a standard cord. 



* In the original planting this was thought to be Eucalyptus 

 obliqua but identification of the trees on this plot have proved 

 them to be Eucalyptus platyphylla.
