NEEJICO CITY, Hex, Dec. s.-The
iFi American rag flies over a piece
OF land almost IN the heart OF
Mexico City. Il is the property OF the
United States and is described hv
some as American territory" IN
other days, before the Mexicans
learned that they could beard Uncle
Sam with inpunity. the ground was
held sacred. Mexican policemen
would not even pursue rogues within
the enclosure VIXEN they lied there
for sanctuary.
What they would do now would
probably be a very different story.
The piece OF ground Is the old
American cemetery. It was decided to
Che United States by president Juarez.
Moxico's drmest friend Of America,
about 60 years ago. At first It was
the huryinE ground 70 which all
Americans who died here were taken.
Now Il is a military cemetery in
which are buried the soldiers who
fell IN Mexico in the war Of 1s47 and
Americans who followed the Tag in
other Warda- Only soldiers may be
buried thsre now.

CANDLES GLOW ON
! 5 MILLION TREES

Washington Dec. IA. - Uncle
Sans nephews are strong for Christ
mas trees and they use about five
million every year, says the Ameri-
can Forestry Association, which is
conducting the national voting cam
paign to find what those nephews
think should be our national tree.
Votes are coming in from every sec
tion of the country. When we con-
slider population of 110,000,000 the
number of trees used is not so large
but it is larger than the number
used by any country on earth. The
profiteers were badly stung last year
when the public refused to pay high
prices for trees and thousands OF
them were thrown away in large
population centres.
The question of cutting Christmas
trees comes up every year and the
association received many letters in
regard to this practice. Intelligent
cutting of the smaller trees really
aids the growth of the more mature
trees.
To New York and New England
are sent more than million trees.
Black and red spruce are very COM
monty seen in celebrations in these
parts of the country. Illinois and
Ohio nurserymen partly supply the
local demand with nursery-grown
Norway spruce. Pineskare in great
demand with nursery-grown Norway
spruce. Pines are in great de-
mand for Christmas thees when fir
and spruce are not available. Mary
land, Virginia and the District of
Columbia use the scrub pine, while
in southern Wyoming the Lodge Pole
pine is almost the only speceis avail
able.
Some favor the hemlock, but its
slender, springy branches are better
adapted to the manufacture of So
called fancy greens. Some arbo-
vitae are shipped among frs and
spruces to New York and Philadel-
phia. Red cedar is often shipped
to the treeless states and is much
used in Tennessee and Pennsylvania.
In California red cedar and incense
cedar are not uncommon.
New Hampshire, Vermont, Maine,
the Berkshire Hills in Massachusetts
and the Adirondacks and Catskills
in New York furnish this supply for
New York, Philadelphia and Boston,
and even for Baltimore and Wash
ington. The swamps of Michigan,
Wisconsin and Minnesota furnish the
markets of Chicago st. Paul, Min
neapolis and the cities of the plains
states. Christmas tree ships bring
greenery from the upper peninsula
of Michigan to Chicago or Detroit
In the Northeastern and Lake States
balsam fir furnishes the bulk of the
Christmas tree trade. In the south
the Fraser fir is the favorite. In
Colorado and other Rocky Mountain
States fir though abundant, is diff
ficult of access and the Lodge Pole
pine and occasionally the Douglas
fir and Englemann spruce are used
On the Pacific coast the Christmas
tree is often the white fir.
In the national vote being taken by
the American Forestry Association
the elm, the oak and the walnut
maintain a position among the frs
three in popular esteem. The hick
= ory and the apple find many friends
