YIELD OF HEMLOCK BARK 



Where the tanbark industry is large and well organized, 

 2240 Ibs. of dried bark constitute one cord. One thou- 

 sand feet of hemlock timber, log scale, yields cord 

 usually, up to a cord in some cases. Small, thrifty hem- 

 lock, if closely utilized at the saw, as in parts of New 

 England, yields about cord per M.
