Osage: The rest of the story

Forest Products Laboratories has extensive data on North American hardwoods and softwoods. But for some reason, while they catalog data of green and dry woods, they only have the green numbers for Osage;

I emailed them off and on for 20 years and only got ho-hum responses--UNTIL a week or so ago! Finally one of their staff rooted out test data collected in 1961 that has numbers for DRY Osage. The data for "work to maximum load" is missing, but MOE and MOR are there.
Here is a link to the full Osage test report:

No idea why the image is broken, but if you click on its link,you can view it.

Persistence pays off sometimes.
Thank you, sir.
