officer will scale it at what he considers its true value and include 

 it in the amount purchased. 



Logs which are not round will be scaled on the average diameter. 



In the absence of a scale stick, or where the position of logi in 

 the pile makes its use difficult, the diameters and lengths may be 

 tallied and the contents figured from a scale table later. 



When necessary and possible the purchaser will be required 

 to mark top ends of logs to avoid question when they are scaled 

 in the pile. 



The purchaser may be required to skid logs of different lengths 

 in separate' piles for convenience in scaling. 



The forest officer should always insist on having one end of 

 piles or skidways even, so that ends of logs may be easily reached. 



When scaled each stick of sawlogs, timbers, ties, posts, poles, 

 or piles must be stamped on at least one .end. Cordwood must 

 be stamped at both top and bottom of each pile and at least 12 pieces 

 in each cord must be stamped.
