WARNING FIREHAzARD,
 XMAS TREES
ForestServi(e Issues State ment Regarding Prep
 dration, Decorations

The local Forest Service office is calling attention to the fire haz- ard in the indoor use of Christmas trees.
 Occasionally some reference IS made to the possible use of chem icals to fireproof Christmas trees The Forest Products Laboratory at Madison, Wisconsin, has experi- mented in the use of various chem icals for this purpose, and it not enthusiastic over the results ob- tained The conclusion is that for the average householder the most practical, satisfactory, and con- venient method for holding down the fire hazard is to follow care fully a number of simple precau- tions. The first of these is to stand the tree in water. This keeps the needles fresh and green. Each of the thousands of needles on an evergreen treen draws water from the tree trunk and breathes it off into the air, even for many days after the tree is cut Keep up this water supply.
 The recommendation is: Get a tree as freshly cut as possible. Cut off the but of the trunk diagonally at least one inch above the original cut end Stand the tree at once in a container of water and do rot let the water level drop below the cut surface. If the tree is not to be set up for several days, stand it in water meanwhile in cool place.
 If started in time this treatment prevents the needles from drying out and becoming inflammable. Spruce. especially, loses needles very easily. Freshly cut spruce trees standing in water are difficult to set on fire by candle or match fires, but of course cannot withstand a large source of heat.
 Some of the other precautions to take against fire around the Christ mas tree: eliminate defective cleo trical connections; avoid an ac- emulation of combustable decora- tions on or beneath the tree. in placing the tree keep away from window curtains or other combust- ible furnishings.
 Above all, be sure not to place it where the occupants of room or building would be cut off from the door or other easy exit in case of a fire
