	Ash Tree
		There are frequent allusions to the Ash throughout European literature, since its tough saplings were naturally chosen by both Greeks and Romans for their spears, whilst the agricultural writers of the latter nation recommend its wood for agricultural implements, a use to which it is still largely applied.
		The Ash attains a height of from thirty to fifty, or even from seventy to ninety feet, with a girth commonly of five or six, but in exceptional instances of as much as twenty feet.
		Few trees are less particular as to soil than the Ash; but perhaps the sugar which in warmer latitudes exudes as "manna" from allied species produces in the North that greater luxuriance of growth which gives us the tree in its highest beauty.
