Obs. Truncus et raniuli obscure et squalide fusci.
The Jersey Pine has probably been so named from its abounding in the lower part of New Jersey, where the soil is meagre and sandy, and where it is often accompanied by the Yellow Pine. It is not. however, confined to this State; for I have seen it in Maryland, Virginia, and Kentucky, in Penn- sylvania beyond Chambersburg, near the Juniata, and on the scrubby ridges beyond Bedford, at the distance of about two hundred miles from Philadelphia. In
... this part of Pennsylvania it is called Scrub Pine, and is seen wherever the soil is composed of argillaceous schist and is consequently poor. The leanness of the land on which it grows is attested by the decrepit appearance of the Scarlet, Red, Black, White, and Rock Chest- nut Oaks, with which it is mingled. I have never met with it northward of the river Hudson, nor in the Carolinas and Georgia.
This tree is sometimes thirty or forty feet high and twelve or fifteen inches in diameter, but it rarely attains these dimensions.
