Table 2 shows the proportion of ash lumber contributed by the im- 
portant species in different years. It is to be noted that the propor- 
tion of black ash in 1914 was only half of what it was in 1899, while 
the proportion of green ash had nearly doubled in that time and the 
proportion of white ash had been reduced.
