A MANUAL FOR NORTHERN WOODSMEN 



VOLtTME TABLE No. 8. SPRUCE IN CORDS 



Table No. 8 derived from Table No. 6 by deducting 

 a fair allowance for waste in stump, also volume of top above 

 4 inches diameter, and dividing by 96, usual number of cubic 

 feet, solid wood, in a piled cord. The values in this table 

 are very closely confirmed by a table for second growth 

 spruce based on 711 trees that was made up in 1903 by 

 Mr. T. S. Woolsey of the United States Forest Service. 



This table may be used for balsam fir, but in general with 

 some deduction. For the amount of this deduction see 

 the preceding page.
