480 MISC. PUBLICATION 218, U. S. DEPT. OF AGRICULTURE 
The net income before taxes of the nonindustrial portion of the 
property for the fiscal year 1924-25 was 239,800RM ($57,100). The 
above taxes are therefore 70 percent of the netincome. They amount 
to 1.4 percent of the value of the nonindustrial portion of the property, 
established at 11,855,000RM ($2,824,000) for purposes of taxation. 
It should be pointed out that, while the above figures exclude the 
industrial portions of the property, they nevertheless include quite a 
large amount of agricultural land which could not be segregated. 
PROPERTY NO. 6 
Property no. 6 is situated in Saxony. Its area is 975 hectares (2,400 
acres), practically all of which is in forest. The forest area is princi- 
pally in Scotch pine, which covers 88 percent. Spruce covers 7 percent 
of the area, and hardwoods and blanks the remaining 5 per cent. 
The rotation is fixed at 90 years. A sustained annual yield of 
2,430 m® (85,815 cubic feet), or 2.5 m® per hectare (35.8 cubic feet per 
acre) has been fixed. The age classes are fairly evenly distributed. 
The taxes during the fiscal year 1928-29 were as follows:

Without considering the turnover tax and the Rentenbank interest 
tax, the taxes were 3,476RM ($828), or 4RM per hectare ($0.35 per 
acre). 
The net income from this property during the fiscal year 1928-29 
was 8,350RM ($1,990), and the taxes represented 42 percent of this 
income. They were 0.9 percent of the officially established assessed 
value of about 384,500RM ($91,600). 
PROPERTY NO.7 
Property no. 7 is a forest belonging to the city of Nauen in the 
vicinity of Berlin. It consists of an area of 1,221 hectares (3,017 acres) 
devoted exclusively to forestry. 
The taxes paid on this forest in 1930 are as follows:

If the income tax and turnover tax are not considered, the taxes 
were 15,000RM ($3,570), or 12RM per hectare ($1.20 per acre). 
The net income before taxes in 1930, presumably abnormally low, 
was 10,500RM ($2,500). The taxes were therefore 143 percent of the 
net income for that year. They amounted to 1.3 percent of the 
officially established assessed value of 1,173,000RM ($279,400).
