Ancient Finea and Oaka.

From tho Boston Transcript.
Down In Essex county. IN the town Of
Boxford. aud about half way between
North Andoycr on the west and George
town on the cast. IL a small tract OF an
cicnt timber trees such as are all too rare
In this part OF the world today. There are
about sixty acres all told. about equally
divided between white pin" and white and
rcd oak. Generally speaking. the trees are
In purc stands as the for"sicrS say, the
oak lot and the pine lot being side b. side.
a few years ago n small tract % line old
white pine timber was located In the town
OF Carlisle. b",we"n Bedford and Chclms-
ford In MiddlcscS county. and through tho
efforts OF the Massachusetts, forestry as
sociItlon his tcn-aCrc piece. with It's one
hundred great trees. was purchased by
public subscription. The Carlisle pines. rs
they have come To be called. are held In
trust for the public by the Appalachian
Mountain club. The old trees are being
conserved. and In the opinion Of forest en-
gtnccrs who have seen them. they are good
for at least another one hundred years,
and probably for more. A portion or tho
lot bears n fine stand OF young pines from
10 to . years old. and these are being en-
couragcd by Judicious thinning. and by the
rcmoval % interfering ~hardwoods. Nil un-
der the management OF the clubs coun-
cilior OF forestry. with n view TO keeping
the tract pcrpe,ually In biz pine timber.
when the old stand at length succumbs TO
tho tooth Of time the now young trees will
be- ready TO be claESed as veterans.
The lockwood pines. or Captain wooc's
pincs' as they are known locally. are no
larger than those at Carlisle. but there are
more OF them. and the array is perhaps
moro impressive on that account. White
the trees at Carlisle are pretty much all
or n size. ranging from two and u half TO
three and "A half feet I'm diameter nj hr.as,
height. and from Too TO 10 feet tall. those
at Bedford will show a great many more
smaller trees IN proportion TO the area.
though any OF them would rank as big
trees elsewhere IN these parts.
There arc thirty acres OF oak at Fox
ford. These oaks are old. probably 10
years or more.
