Volume Tables. 
Table 22 shows the volume in board feet by the Scribner rule for trees of various 
diameters and height in the Lake States. It is based on measurements of a large 
number of trees in northern Minnesota, made under the personal supervision of 
Mr. E. S. Bruce, of the Forest Service. Deductions for defect were made in the 
field by expert lumbermen.
