The Farm Woodlot 



Out of 511 trees 225 were removed, representing about 

 27,050 board feet out of a total of 77,190 board feet. All 

 together, during the thinning process, about two-fifths of 

 the trees were removed, representing about one-third of the 

 volume. The cost of this thinning varied from 83 cents a 

 thousand board feet to $1.50 a thousand board feet for 

 day labor.
