KERRY WOODS. 23 



Sample tree : 11 52 feet. d = 8'o inches. 



v = 8*73 cubic feet, f = 0*482. 



This proved a somewhat poor tree, having lost its leader on 

 two occasions. The average height of the group as determined 

 by Brandis' Hypsometer was 60 feet. 



Approximate Volume per acre= - x 62 x 0*482 = 6,000 cub. ft.

GROUP IA. NEW POOL SPRUCE. 

 Area, 0*125 acre. Elevation, 1,020 feet. Age, 43 years. 



Adjoining Group I., but on somewhat damper soil; other 

 conditions similar. 



This group had been neglected for some years and required 

 thinning. In addition to the dominant and minor trees there were 

 also 105 dead trees per acre on the ground. The dead branches 

 were still adhering but not so strongly as those in Group I.
