WHITE PINE. 
A noble tree to plant for present enjoyment and future generations. The quickest-growing pine, and the best for wide 
shelter plantations. As a background and wind-break on large lawns it is the finest tree, being always cheerful in 
appearance, and far superior to the Norway spruce, so much used, which, when grown on poor soil, has a ragged and 
mournful appearance. The White Pine makes a large timber tree on any soil, even the sandy brush plains. See illus- 
tration above, and on page 17. We can furnish small, transplanted trees for reforesting waste land at low rates per 
.acre. The above illustration shows a group of White Pines at Westbury, 30 years planted.
