Poles scaled according to specifications given on p. 18. 



Note.— The volume in "topwood" (top and branches) was obtained by subtracting the cubic volume of 

 the pole from the total used volume of the tree, in cubic feet (to a minimum diameter of 2 inches, outside 

 bark). 



YIELD OF INDIVIDUAL OAK AND OAK-CHESTNUT STANDS. 



In the absence of sufficient data for yield tables in lumber and ties 

 for the oak and oak-chestnut types, the following tables which show 

 the actual results of measurements in stands of these types are given. 

 Where two stands were of the same age, their yields were averaged; 

 otherwise no attempt was made to average them. The volume in 

 cords remaining was obtained by dividing the cubic feet remaining 

 by the converting factor in Table 41 corresponding to the average 

 diameter breast-high of the stand.
