The average yield per acre is given in the table be- 
low, both for the entire 1046 acres, and for each of the 
four classes of situation. From this table it appears 
that there are 3004 board feet of Birch, 464 feet of Hard 
Maple, 982 feet of Hemlock, 74 feet of Pine, 15 feet of 
Cherry, and 16 feet of Black Ash per acre on the 1046
