BUREAU NOTES

The United States uses annually
between four and five million Christ
mas trees, according to estimates OF
the U. s.. Forest Service. The Christ
mas tree bears practically the same
fruit the country over, but the variety
OF the tree itself varies according t.
locality. During December hundreds
of cars are used to carry the trees to
the cities.
Sixteen hundred lots of seed and
plants Of African fruits, vegetable,
grains and flowers, not common to
this country. have been sent to the
U. S. Department of Agriculture for
a test as to their adaptability to
American soil as a result of trip
made by DR.. H. l.. Shantz, an agri-
cultural explorer, Africa was ex-
plored from Cape Town to Cairo.
Many of these new plants will be
tested OF the Brooksville (Fla) Ex-
pertinent Station.
For ailing children the best way to
get orange juice is to buy the fruit
and squeeze out the juice. The ordin-
airy orange beverage contains only
small amount of fruit juice per glass,
il it has any at all, and is intended
for a fountain drink.
