NOTES TO TABLE 14. 



Table 14 is computed from table 12 and table 13 so as to 

 show what quantity of lumbeo", in feet board measure, a sound 

 tree may be expected to contain on an average when its diame- 

 ter 4 feet from ground and freed from bark, reaches a given 

 number of inches. 



The Volme-inicremient of a tree does not rum parallel to 

 the diameter-iu'cireaBe. A diameter-increase 'cd 2 inch'es 

 corresponds with a volume-inarement of about 125 feet B. 

 M. in the case of trees 18 inches through, and of about 250 

 feet B. M. in the case of trees about 27 inches through. In 

 others words, whilst a tree 18 inches through adds 125 feet B. 

 M. to its volume by growing 2 inches larger, a tree 27 inches 

 through adds about 250 feet B. M. to its volume when grow- 

 ing 2 inches larger at breastheight.
