Volume Tables. 



Table 22 shows the volume in board feet by the Scribner rule for trees of various 

 diameters and height in the Lake States. It is based on measurements of a large 

 number of trees in northern Minnesota, made under the personal supervision of 

 Mr. E. S. Bruce, of the Forest Service. Deductions for defect were made in the 

 field by expert lumbermen.
