A CLASSIFICATION OF TIMBER PRODUCTS 

 AND THEIR RELATIVE IMPORTANCE * 



1 Based on estimated forest drain to meet poten- 

 tial requirements in the United States, 1950-55. 



2 Drain refers to the volume of timber cut an- 

 nually to supply requirements for commodities. 



3 Includes all trees 5 inches and larger in diameter 

 at breast height. 



4 Includes trees large enough to produce saw logs; 

 minimum diameter varies by regions and species, 

 but in no case less than 9 inches in diameter at 

 breast height. (See page 731.)
