COMPLETE YIELD TABLES FOR BRITISH WOODLANDS 



Now, in as much as the prices obtainable for different kinds of timber are subject to such great variation, the 

 following table, showing in their order of merit the volume of timber per acre produced by various crops at 60 

 years of age upon land where the soil and situation are of Quality II. is of much importance. 



QUALITY II. THE YIELD PER ACRE IN CUBIC FEET OF TIMBER AT 60 YEARS OF 



AGE ON QUALITY II. SOIL. 



Note. It is most important to remember that a given soil and situation is not necessarily of the same quality for all kinds of trees, 

 e.g., a soil may be Quality II. for Corsican Pine, and yet only Quality IV. for Tlniya plicata or Douglas Fir. 

 Alder up to the first 35 years will yield about as much timber as Spanish Chestnut at the same date.
