 products.

' The roundwood (logs and bolts) volume of pulpwood, 

 of "other industrial wood" and of fuelwood includes only 

 that cut directly from trees. Plant residues utilized for 

 such products are part of the roundwood volume princi- 

 pally of saw logs and veneer logs and bolts. 



- Estimates of apparent consumption based on estimated 



production, less exports, plus imports, and changes in 

 lumber stocks. 



' Includes net imports of jjulpwood, also of woodpulp 

 and finished paper expressed in terms of pulpwood. 



* All other timber products, except fuelwood.
