1/ Changes by type since last survey are given only for state and unit totals. The changes for commercial 

 forest land and nonstocked are based on 1953 statistics that were adjusted to a comparable basis with the new 

 statistics. For the other types direct comparisons were valid. 



2/ Forest land which is producing or capable of producing crops of industrial wood and not withdrawn from 

 timber utilization. Forest tracts of less than 1 acre, and isolated strips of timber less than 120 feet wide 

 are excluded. 



3/ A classification of forest land based upon the predominant species in the present tree cover. 

 Forests in which pine species predominate, with eastern white pine or red pine most common. 

 Forests in which pine species predominate, with jack pine most common. 

 Forests in which conifer species other than pine predominate. 

 Forests in which oak and hickory species predominate. 



Forests in which quaking aspen, bigtooth aspen, and white birch predominate. 



Forests in which northern hardwoods species, lowland hardwoods species (including balsam poplar), or 

 Cottonwood predominate. 

 10/ Commercial forest lands less than 10 percent stocked with growing stock trees. 

 * Less than 500 acres.
