Much has been written about
the blight" that took the Ameri-
can Chestnut and wiped it out
in 20 years. It was an introduced
disease. brought in about 1904,
and by 1910 had killed the chest
nut forests as far west as the
Mississippi River. The loss was
widely felt because Of the impor-
tance of chestnut bark to the
tanning industry, the loss Of q
top quality durable wood to the
lumber industry, and. of course,
the crop Of nuts.
Before the blight" took the
American Chestnut, breeders had
been playing around with both
the European and the Asiatic
species. However, the "blight"
proved that the European varie-
ties are as lacking in disease re-
sistance as the American, and so
the japanese and Chinese species
apparently were the only hope
of re-eStablishing chestnut for
ests with disease-resistant trees.
Even this is open to question be-
cause of the small stature of the
two Asiatic species. Certainly
there is little hope of finding a
disease-resistant tree of the ma
tive species. The suckers that
normally spring from stumps of
dead trees are a part of tree
that has lost its top to the disease
and vegetative reproduction car
ries the same characteristic as
the parent.
The Agriculture Department
and the several State experiment
stations as we'll as private
breeders have been trying to pro-
duce disease-resistant hybrids
with desirable nut and tree char
acteristics. Several promising
hybrids have been produced that
are disease resistant, have fairly
good quality nuts, but they are
too small to be considered forest
trees. However, since they grow
about the same as an apple tree
they should make useful lawn
trees. Freedom from disease is
fairly good.
They are medium-sized trees
of fairly rapid growth and bear
crops. The root systems seem to

be deep enough so that they do
not offer undue competition to
grass and shrubs. This Is an inn
portant consideration to the
owner of small suburban lot.
Unfortunately, it takes two va
rieties of trees because the
chestnuts are not self fertile.
While they grow no larger than
a good-sized apple tree, it may
be impractical to grow two chest
nut trees on the small suburban
lot.
The chestnut tree requires ,
more care for good growth than
a maple or an oak. Unless the
owner is willing to give this care
he might better skip the idea Of
growing his own chestnuts. The
soil near the trunk should be
kept cultivated during the spring
and early summer. Mulching
can then be employed during
the late summer, fall and winter.
Feeding is a must if the trees
are to make desired growth. Or
dinary commercial fertilizer may
be used, preferably in the early
spring and again in the late fall.
The amount will vary with the
size of the tree.
Remove Lower Limbs.
The Chinese hybrids normally
are low branching and so they
should be trained to a height
that will permit moving the
grass beneath them. This is best
accomplished by keeping a single
leader and removing the lower
limbs as the tree gains in size.
Since chestnuts are of moderate
size it is doubtful if the limbs
can be removed to a height Of
more than 8 or 10 feet.
CheStnuts are normally planted
in the spring, but undoubtedly
in this area fall planting can be
successful with good cultural
practices. They demand q soil
that is well supplied with COM
post or other forms of humus.
Too much peat moss would tend
to make the soil too acid for best
growth. The chestnut seems to
thrive equally we'll in sweet or
acid soil as long as they are not
extremes.
Protect From Weevils.
When the chestnut trees be-
gin to bear. and they should
within 4 or S years of planting,
the owner will wish to protect
the nuts from the nut weevil.
They still persist, although the
native chestnuts have been gone
from this area for nearly IS
years. However. the weevil is re-
ported as relatively easily con-
trolled with DDT. Applications
of this insecticide should be made
shortly after the nuts are formed
and at intervals of 2 or weeks
until after the egg-laying sea-
son is past.
The chestnut has been on the
japanese beetles preferred diet
list for many years and he will
welcome the opportunity to feed
on the flowers and foliage. Here
again the DDT, or probably
Methoxychlor, may be used to
protect the tree.
The four varieties of hybrid
chestnuts. Abundance, Kuling,
Melting and Nanking, are the
first Of the breeders efforts that
were released for planting. But
there are many unnamed hybrid
Seeding trees being offered for
sale. Unless one is willing to
buy "a pig in poke" it would
seem the better practice to buy a
named variety. 1t takes several
years for tree to reach a useful
size and unless it is known to be
resistant to the blight and to
produce good quality nuts, the
risk of loss of time and money is
too great.

The Travellers Notebook
Rore Charm Of Christmos
\ Offered at Resort Areas
The Travellers Notebook
By Jacques FutrelIe, Jr
The Stor's Iravel Editor

Christmas is selected rarely by
families as a time to be away
from home. Yet there are recrea-
tional travel attractions timed
especially for this year-end holi-
day, and so arranged as to give
those who attend Christmas
that fingers fondly in the me-
n1ory for years to come.
One Of the most notable exam
Piles Is the Christmas cruise.
Luxury ships sail from New York
or New Orleans. on schedules that
put the traveller in a foreign port
or on a sunny sea when Santa
descends the frosty-topped Chin
ney at home. The popularity Of
such cruises. many of which also
embrace New Years, is apparent
for those who belatedly decide to
sail. Seldom is space available
for them. There Is always a
chance Of a late cancellation,
however. for those who apply
late.
virgiria's Colonial Williams

its festive spirit and fills up, as

cerned. months in advance. It

The program for the rest Of

parties, an outdoors treasure

golf tournaments, ping-pong,
riding and such relaxations as
sulphur baths and summing on

odd Christmas
Because old Christmas" OBJ
servances linger in parts of the
United States. it is possible to
have one Yuletide at home and
depart in time to catch another
elsewhere. One such place is
the picturesque village of Ro-
danthe, on the Outer Banks of
North Carolina.
Old Christmas is observed
there on January 5 and has been
for so long a time that the vii
layers don't try to pin down its
origin. Farther away, in the
pueblo land" of New Mexico,
Indians celebrate January as
a Christmas known as the day
of the Three Kings with pomp
and ceremony attending the in
stallation of new governors. The
day marks the beginning of the
new year for the pueblo dwellers,
and at Taos, the buffalo and
deer dances are staged amid
feaSting.
In Northern New Mexico, this
feast day of the Three Kings in
spires quaint professions in the
Spanish villages. with feasting,
Thanksgiving and holiday gaiety.
Tourists Wotch
Tourists come from many
States to see the interesting In
dian ceremonies at San Felipe,
Santo Domingo, Cochiti and
other pueblos. One Of the more
spectacular ceremonies is the
Eagle Dance at San Ildefonso,
where tribesmen take the role of
feathered birds, to tilt and swoop
about the plaza in graceful
rhythm.
Rooted as deeply in the Outer
Banks as the old English speech
that persists in that region to-
day are the festivities held at
Rodanthe. Central figure in the
celebration is "Old Buck" feast
ing is largely confined to roasted
oysters from Pamlico Sound go
bushels last January 81, and
principal diversions are dancing
and talking.
For one who would see folklore
literally alive, a visit to Rodanthe
at old Christmas time is recon-,
mended. One gains an extra
Christmas, too. If he can stand
another.

these are from persons disap-
pointed In a last-minute bid or
from repeaters. who enjoy the
festivities in the old tradition to
the extent that it Is their IA

Sulphur Springs, w. Va.
Season Alreody Begun
Williamsburg, following the
custom Of George Washington's
day. starts celebrating the Yule
season early. In fact. the
Christmas program got under
way this week end. and many
characteristic events viii crowd
the calendar through New Years
Day: There will be caroling in
the streets. which former Wis
itors remember so fondly;
Christmas concerts. the firing Of
Christmas guns. Colonial-style
decorations Of historic buildings
and among other things. a Yule
Log ceremony.
The Yule Log observance is not
new to today's restoration of
the Virginia colony's capital, but
the drama and fun that sur
round the event has been re-
vived in a more extensive form
only recently.
The ceremony will begin with
bringing in the Yule Log on De-
cember %. Five men. in costume
and carrying saws and axes, will
set out from the lounge Of the
inn at 4 p.m. that Tuesday. Be-
hind them will go visitors and
townSpeople. singing carols on
the way into the nearby woods
to find the hidden log.
Prize to Finder
To the finder will go a prize
and also the age-old duty to
ride the log in as others drag
1t with ropes. The log will be on
display until Christmas eve,
when the ceremonial lighting
will be staged. The log will be
cut so that the fireplace at
Chowning's Tavern as well as
the lodge, will have the CHEEKY
fire.
New this year at Williamsburg
will be another feature, the
Singing Candles" procession on
December 20, the Sunday before
Christmas. Each singer in choral
groups from two schools will
carry a lighted candle as they
slowly file down the Palace
Green from the Governors
Palace. It will be the signal
for the white lights to be lighted
in each window of the restored
section Of the city.
OF such things are Williams
burg's Christmases made.
Old and Modern Mixed
At White Sulphur's Greenbrier
the old traditions of Christmas
will have such modern overtones
as golfing, swimming and horse
back riding.
1t has happened before, so it

is possible that the all-year re-
sort will again have the nostalgia
white Christmas Of song and
story. with golf1ng as early as the
next day. Such was the case
November z. when the surprise
storm sprinkled the area with
snow for seven hours. This
proved an unexpected treat for
camera fans, who caught the
beauty Of the white mantle on
the evergreens. And golfers did
not have to be grumpy about it.
The next afternoon, about 100
men and women were playing
on the Old White, Lakeside and
Greenbrier courses.
Playable fairways so soon after
a snowfall is attributed to the
location of the resort in the
Greenbrier Valley. It Is far
enough south to dispel snow
quickly, and the contours of the
valley catch and hold the suns
warmth.
White or Green
But about the Greenbrier's
Christmas
White or green, the luxurious
resorts Yuletide is planned
along both old and modern lines.
Activities are arranged for all
ages. and the hotel encourages
a family" Christmas. For in
stance, Santa will appear in
time to toast marshmallows at
one of the events.
At teatime on Christmas eve,
the yule log will be lighted, and
stockings will be passed out to
each guest to hang near the
fireplace. After dinner, a choir
from the nearby village will
appear to sing carols.
