|SCANT TREE SUPPLY
EASES SANTA'S TASK
Fewer Christmas Evergreens
Than in Former Years.
Prices Higher

Santa Claus Is anticipating a lighter
| task on Christmas Eve, SO far as one
OF his accustomed tasks--tree.trimming
lis concerned.
Christmas trees are scarcer than ever
ihefore This is another condition di-
trectly due to the war. a tour of the
Icity--in kensngton, Frankford. South
and West elphia--showed that
many of the usual neighborhood stands
where trees were sold IN former years
have been abandoned.
In localities where there is heavy traf-
fic. such as Juniper and Market streets,
Fifty-second and Market streets, Ger
mantown and Chclten avenues and Ken
sington avenue and Cumberland street,
there are a few trees on sale at record
breaking prices. The siX-foot trees that
sold last year for 81 are $3.50 and those
that brought 50 are bringing as high as
$3.50. A few trees selling. for 81 are
only four feet in height, OF course,
prices will take a drop on the day before
Christmas. and Judging from the way
the present stock fingers. the buyers are
waiting until the market breaks,
The tree scarcity is due solely to the
lack of labor and scarcity of cars. Whole
sale tree dealers say that they had to cUt
most of their trees down themselves in
the woods of New Hampshire. Maine and
Vermont. There was no labor available
I Ii was necessary to order cars two weeks
in advance even then there were not
sufficient cars to haul the trees which
had been cut down.
Most of the trees arrived at the Phila-
tlelphia and Reading Railway yards at
Nineteenth street and Indiana avenue
The entire crop this year is only slight
ly more than half that of 1916.

WASHINGTON. Dec 1s--The food
administrations rule against the sale
OF less than pound OF bread has been
changed to prevent working a hardship
on the poor of New Nork's lower East
Side. where bakers have been selling
bread from large loaves by the penny or

reached after representations that many
of the persons affected could not afford
