Yield Tables. 



Present Stand. 



The following tables show the present stand of merchantable timber 

 for the eight commercial trees growing on Township 40. They were com- 

 piled from the i 043 acres of valuation surveys already mentioned and 

 explained. In these tables the total stand' for each compartment was 

 obtained by multiplying the average stand got from the surveys by the num- 

 ber of acres in the compartment. The average stand was carried out to four 

 decimal places and then multiplied by the acreage. In order, however, to 

 simplify and shorten the table, two of these decimal places were taken off 

 in the final figures, for both the total stand and the average stand per acre. 

 This explains the fact that the product of the average stand multiplied by 

 the total number of acres in the compartment varies slightly from the 

 product as stated in the table. This variation is so small as to have no 

 appreciable efifect on the result.
