CONDENSED WORKING PLAN EEPORT ON THE WOODLANDS OF 

 JOHN DOE, ESQ., BY EICHARD ROE, FOREST ENGINEER 



Working Plan 



The following working plan is for 50 acres of woodland, 

 situated in the town of Doeville, and owned by John Doe, Esq. 



Object of the Owner 



It is the desire of the owner to manage his woodlands in 

 such a way as to make them produce continuously the greatest 

 amount of wood and timber, with the least possible expendi- 

 ture. He is particularly anxious not to cut the standing tim- 

 ber at a greater rate than that at which it is growing. 



Treatment 



For purposes of description and treatment, the tract has 

 been divided into blocks, which are indicated on the accom- 

 panying map. 



Block No. 1 is 5 acres in extent. It is covered with a stand 

 of mature white pine ready to cut, which when surveyed was 

 found to amount to 200 cords fit for box boards and cheap 

 lumber. It is recommended that this lot be cut over after the 

 next heavy seed year, and that the natural seeding be supple- 

 mented by planting if necessary. 



Block No. 2 is 10 acres in extent. It is covered with a 

 younger stand of white pine than that on Block No. 1. The 

 stand as surveyed amounts to 250 cords. This stand should 

 be thinned moderately, to improve and increase the growth. 



Block No. 3 is 20 acres in extent. It is an old field, which 

 is coming up to scattering bushes. It is recommended that it 

 be planted to white pine and red oak in mixture. 



Block No. 4 is 15 acres in extent. It is covered with a 

 growth of chestnut, red oak, ash, maple and birch. The sur- 

 vey places the stand at 300 cords. This block should be 

 thinned moderately, to improve the growth.
