foresters pointed out that this was based on present values of poles pulp wood and saw logs the area under agreement with york county at viviam is now 3665 acres comprising both natural stands and plantations the plantation area covers some 2221 acres of which slightly over 1800 acres will proctuce commercial crops the balance being established chiefly for protection purposes on poor sites n of the commercial plantation area 500 acres falls in the 32 to 34 year age class illustrat ing its present market value it was shown that if one acre of this age class was clear cut at the present time the total delivered value in poles and posts produced would be 2206 going a step further the delrv- ered value at present market prices of all timber in this 500 acre area at the present time would be 1000000 while ob viously there is no intention of clear cutting these figures do give a very interesting indi cation of present volumes and market values after 34 years leaving the sample plot area
