Is it OK to plant a new tree in the same hole where a stump was removed, using Epsom salts? I have a dwarf RI red maple, and want to plant it where I am removing a white pine stump. Will I need to add anything to the soil, or in the hole, before replanting?

This is not really a good idea because you put Epsom salts in your dirt. Your soil has a high salt content now. You will need to wait a few months before you can plant a tree again in this hole. If you try to plant a new tree there now, the salt in the hole can kill the roots of this tree.
Epsom salt helps some plants like tomatoes grow better. I would take a chance and plant the tree
