Publisher's Synopsis
Excerpt from The Red Gum
The tables in this report apply quite generally to the range of the species, those for Missouri holding good, with little variation, for the Mississippi River States, and those for South Carolina applying in general to the Atlantic coast region. It will be seen that the tree differs greatly in rate of growth, percentage of sapwood, and volume in these two localities. Intermediate variations between these two types of course occur. It should be remembered, however, that these tables for gum apply only on hardwood bottomlands. About the Publisher Forgotten Books publishes hundreds of thousands of rare and classic books.
