2 This is calculated for a uniform moisture content of 20 per cent, with a weight of 33.1 pounds per cubic 

 foot. As a matter of fact, the moisture content at the time of shipment varies considerably— from 15 per 

 cent to 60 per cent. 



ANNUAL CUT. 



The annual cut of lodgepole pine by States, as nearly as it can be 

 determined, is shown in Table 7. This table indicates a considerably 

 smaller cut of saw timber than Table 3, due to the fact that some 

 mills which formerly sawed lodgepole pine have shut down, and to the 

 further fact that some of the material included in Table 3 as saw 

 timber appears in Table 7 as ties and mine timbers.
