NOTES. This acre was measured off at the xtreme end of a bench of table land extending

 latter appearing only where the cutting had been severe, evidently pi ices where the ground 

 was originally cleared for skidways.

ACRE No. 3. 

 Lot 206, Township 11, 0. M. Tract, Essex County, N. Y. 



NOTES. This acre was selected on a hardwood slope with a northerly exposure. Inter- 

 spersed with the larger trees there was a large number of small yellow birches and maples, and 

 in places, groups of small balsams, all under five inches in diameter. Only a * w of the hard- 

 wood trees had been cut by the lumbermen. 



The crown development was dense, and the forest in good condition.
