The same place after the first cut. Poor quality beech were poisoned 19 months earlier, and were debarked with frill and sodium arsenite for $4.13 per acre. It is anticipated that hard maple and yellow birch reproduction will have a better opportunity to become established without competition from the beech.

Mature hemlock and yellow birch probably exceeding 200 years of age. An analysis of growth rings on nearby hemlock stumps indicates that severe windfall probably occured about 1790, and that cutting occurred about 1860 and 1905.
