Virgin forests, 1620

Title
Virgin forests, 1620
LC Subject
Forest reserves--Oregon
Description
The colonists found a great stand of timber along the Atlantic coast, and as far west as the Mississippi. They used all they needed for building purposes, but the bulk of it was slashed and burned to clear land for farming. You will notice that the East at this time had a far more uniform stand of timber that the West had.
