Text Appearing Before Image:
n Idaho and Montana,and south into California. Elevations 7,000 to 10,000 feet. Uses:Not equal to P. Strobus in cultivation. Locally used for lumberin Idaho and Montana. The mountain white pine is the Western counterpart of P.Strobus, which it resembles in general appearance and in thequalities of its wood. Its foliage is denser and its cones nearlytwice as large as those of our Eastern white pine, with a beakon each scale that the latter species lacks. It is unusual, even in the Sierras, to find a tree of giganticsize climbing mountains. This one at the elevation of 10,000feet shows specimens 6 to 8 feet in diameter and 90 feethigh, apparently growing nobler in form and size the colderand balder the mountains about it.

Text Appearing After Image:
THE WHITE PINE (Pinus Strobus) This tree has plume-like tufts of blue-green leaves in bundles of fives. The twigs have five buds around the central one,so the trunk and limbs send out whorls of five branches each spring. The pistillate flowers are near the itop of the twig andnidden among the leaves. The staminate cones cluster behind the new shoot and are yellow when ripe. The cones are slender,curved, pendant, with thin, unarmed scales. The tree is chief among the soft pines in the lumber trade
