Healing the logs 



"Scaling" logs means determining their approximate contents in 

 lumber by measuring them and applying volume figures already worked 

 out. Tables containing these figures are called log rules, and tlie two in 

 most common use are the Sciibner and the Doyle log rules. The Scribner 

 is undoubtedly the better rule for woodlot use, since it gives a fairer scale 

 to the small logs. These rules are given in Tables 6 and T.
