14 KERRY WOODS. 



Sample tree: h = i>7 f eet 4 inches. d = 5*4 inches. 

 v = 3'o5 cubic feet. ^0*513. 



Volume per acre = - ^ x 38*25 x 0*513 = 1,780 cub. ft. approx. 



0'2 



Also present 20 small spruce per acre with the Scotch and 

 Corsican pines all dead as in Groups Lj and L 2 . 



GROUP L A . 



Area, 0*2 acre. Elevation, 1,250 feet. Age, 21 years. 

 Soil, slope and aspect as in Groups L 2 and L 3 . 



Dominant trees per acre (of mean diameter 5*8 in.) 470 

 Minor trees per acre (of mean diameter 4 in.) ... 200 



Total trees per acre 670 



Sample tree: h = 34 feet 8 inches. d = 5*45 inches. 

 v = 2*67 cubic feet. f = 0*476. 



Volume per acre = 2 x 36*3 x 0*476 = 1,520 cub. feet, approx. 

 0*2 



There were also present 45 spruce and 10 suppressed pines per 

 acre. The spruce were mostly badly suppressed though a few 

 were 12 feet high. The heavy early thinnings to which this group 

 had been subjected account for the survival of the pines. 



Between Groups L 4 and L 5 the slope becomes gentler and the 

 wood is no longer sheltered to any extent by flanking hills to the 

 west. 



GROUP L fi . 

 Area, 0*18 acre. Elevation, 1,350 feet. Age, 20 years. 



Aspect N. Slope gentle. Soil shallower than in foregoing 

 groups. 



Dominant trees per acre (of mean diameter 4*75 in.) 560 

 Minor ( 3-0 ) 100 



Total per acre 660 



Sample tree: h = 24 feet 2 inches. d = 4*85 inches. 

 v=r6 cubic feet. f = 0*512. 



Volume per acre = I2 3 ? x 25*5 x 0*5 1 2 -= 900 cub. feet approx. 

 0*18 



Also present 150 spruce, 50 silver firs, 100 Scotch pines and 

 40 Corsican pines per acre. The two pines and the spruce are of 

 practically the same height and rival the larch, while the silver 

 firs are from 4 feet to 10 feet high.
