Dunes on Coast of Jutland. 67 



larch has been used in some plantations and does better than 

 European larch. Experiments with every evidence of success 

 are being made with Quercus pedunciUata and sessiliiiora, 

 Fraxinus excelsior^ Betula alba and Alnus glutinosa upon moist 

 ground. Fagus silvatica has been used on high places. In one 

 case it was observed that in a mixed plantation formed in 1855 on 

 fine sand the oak had accumulated four inches of rich soil under 

 it while a neighboring pine had made but half that amount of soil. 

 The southwestern part of Jiitland gradually will become 

 forested once more after a belt of forest has been formed along 

 its west coast. The evil caused by previous generations will be 

 eventually corrected.
