HEIGHT-GROWTH CURVES OF SOME OF THE SAMPLE TREES FELLED. 

 It may be said that on all aspects the spruce should here attain 

 a height of at least 60 ft. in 60 years at an elevation of 1,500 ft. 



F. Quality of the Timber. 



A few of the sections taken from the sample trees felled have 

 been reproduced to show the quality of the timber. Some of these 

 sections bear labels, on which the top number is the number of the 

 sample tree, the second the height of the section from the ground, 

 and the bottom the number of annual rings in the section. 



Larch. The larch timber generally is of good quality. The
