partly with nursery grown Norway

for Christmas trees when fir and

into many homes, while In southern
Wyoming the Lodge Pole pine Is al
most the only species available.
HemlUck is often used, but only
In the absence Of other varieties. Red
cedar, says tho forest service, is not
despised where better trees can not
be had rs In the treeless states and
often in Tennessee and Pennsylvania.
In California red cedar and Incense
cedar are not uncommon. The
swamps Of Michigan, Wisconsin and
Minnesota furnish the markets OF
Chicago, St. Paul, Minneapolis and
the cities OF the plains states, while
Maine, New Hampshire, Vermont, the
Berkshire hills OF Massachusetts, and
the Adlrondacks and Catskills In New
York are the sources of supply for
New York, Philadelphia and Boston,

says, vary in size from 3 To SO feet,
and prices run from 20 rents to S85

secretary, the grazing fcea have boon

listing rates were established, the us
era Of the range Understood that they
would remain In effect for five years,
and many OF the grazing permits wero
issued for this period. The value OF
the grazing privilege on many nnges
subsequently advanced and "a consid-
cradle sentiment in favor Of an Inn

developed. The good faith Of the gov
eminent would be impaired by such
a course. Furthermore, to advance

No policy has been laid down by

WASHINGTON, Dec. 11.-Between
four and five million Christmas trees
will be felled his year to brighten
American homes, churches ana COM
munity centers, ana delight the
hearts OF the children. This Is the
estimate of the forest service, which
says hat the total of trees used In
his country acn yuletide season
equals approximately the combined
consumption of England. Scotland,
and Wales and is about 90 percent
greater than That of Germany.
Forest service officials are opposed
to any movement TO discourage the
use of these trees for Christmas pur-
poses. To the argument hat the cut
ting and use OF the trees is "A great
waste. they say hat the custom IL so
old, so well grounded, and 50 venerat-
cd, that even II Il were economically
somewhat indefenslble, these aspects
will and should continue TO outweigh
economic consideration.
Placed all together, the four or five
millions of trees used annually would
make n mighty forest, but forest SER
vice officers point out that many Of
them come from fields which are be-
ing cleared for farming purposes or
from forests which need thinning to
protect tho more sturdy trees. They
also argue That trees are for use and
that there is 30 other use to which
they could be put that would con
tribute so much to the joy OF man
kind as their use by children on this
M great holiday.
OF the total OF Christmas trees CON
sumed in this country, 1.5OO,O0O arc
used In New York state and New
England. the forest service says.

London, Oct. 18th. The eyes of all
Britain were centred today upon the first

of a situation menacing the prosperity
of the whole country, and the members
assembled with the idea of delOting

pressing topic.
