RELATION OF WHITE PINES TO EUROPEAN FORESTRY. 
Kuropean forest conditions form a striking contrast to those in 
America. In Europe conservative methods of management and 
utilization have been in practice for centuries, whereas in America 
we are considering only the ways and means of applying such 
methods. Labor costs, though now abnormally high in Europe, as 
elsewhere, have usually been very low, a factor which has con- 
tributed largely to the success of forest practice abroad. With the 
development of forestry as a science, exotic tree species have been 
sought for study and experimental planting. There has been a 
continual search for species which would become readily naturalized 
and establish themselves under different conditions of planting and 
site. Trees from the New World were eagerly sought after, both 
for ornamental and forest planting. Many of the newcomers soon 
found a permanent place in the list of desirable species for use 
by the arboriculturist and the forester, foremost among which was 
Pinus strobus. 
In Europe the eastern white pine of North America (Pinus 
strobus) is invariably called ‘“ Weymouth pine.” According to 
Belon (8) this tree was growing in the royal nurseries at Fon- 
tainebleau, France, in 1553. If that is true, it is the earliest record 
of its appearance in Europe. It was not until after its introduc-
