 The northern portion of the town is a natural white pine 

 region. White pine is the principal growth, with chestnut, oak, 

 birch and maple coming next in order. The largest stand of 

 white pine noted was possibly 150 acres in area, while the 

 average stand was about 30 acres. In some places red pine was 

 found in mixture with the white pine, and for the same period 

 of years the red pine seems to have outgrown the white pine
