M'gm), which has mechanical properties quite different from those of white ash but the same general appear ance and sti ucture and a more handsome grain. Lumber cut from all species, however, is often sold as white ash. The terms green, red, and Biltmore ash are not used at all in the lumber trade. Old growtli ash from Continuously wet river bottom land is Often called pumpkin ash because it is soft and brittle. The term is applied chiefly to pumpkin ash (f. Profunda) and green ash (f.

The term Oregon ash is seldom-used-ih-trade on the Pacific coast.
