atiye value of different kinds OF wood for fuel Ac
cording his table, if the price Of shell
bark hickory wood to be 80 so per cord. the value
OF ether kinds will be as follows :-pgnut hickory
81 81; white oak 80 03; white ash 81 90; red
oak 81 rs; black birch 81 81; hard maple and
yellow oak 81 so: yellow pine and soft maple 81
IS; ehesnut 81 80; white birch 81 90; white
pine 81 O5; lombardy poplar 81 90 Mr.. Bull
found that green hickory contained 81 per cent. in
moisture, green white oak 4 per cent. and green
soft maple 48 per cent. cord Of the latter will
