Table IV is designed to show whether and hi which cases typical 

 rot extends much beyond the wounds forming the entrance for the 

 fungus. Column 7 is the one to be followed (" Typical rot, extending 

 much beyond wounds"). The affirmative is expressed by a cross, x }

 two are marked by a cross in parentheses; they are negligible for 

 our purposes. The first tree to be considered, No. 58, is 123 years 

 old and has a frost crack. From this age, or rather after 126 to 130
