' Mortality estimates represent actual losses in 1952. In all but the North- 

 em Rocky Mountain Region actual mortality was found to agree closely 

 with the current level of mortality indicated by trends over a long period 

 of years, as determined in 1952. In the Northern Rocky Mountain Region, 

 actual mortality of growing stock for 1952 was found to be well above this 

 level for insect losses, at the same level for fire and disea.se losses and slightly 

 below for losses due to animals, weather, suppression, etc. For sawtimber, 

 actual mortality in the Northern Rocky Mountain Region was well above 



the current level for insect losses, at the same level for fire losses, and sub- 

 stantially below this level for disease losses and losses due to animals, weather, 

 suppression, etc.
