 The general condition of the forest is good, especially in the 

 pine, oak and hardwood types. There is a good layer of 

 humus. The principal species are pine and chestnut and oak 

 in clear and mixed stands. Ash and hickory are common in the 

 mixture and also as roadside trees. Suppressed pine is common 

 in the chestnut and oak types. The Century Mill, W. J. 

 Webber, proprietor, cuts chestnut and pine to the extent of 

 about 75 M board feet per year. This is the only lumber mill 

 in Bolton, and it is idle most of the time.
