Anne w. Holberton, Consumer
Information and Marketing Spec
ialist of Agricultural Extension
Service, has some good information
about Christmas trees which is
certainly timely as most homes will
soon be frightened with the holi-
day decorations. II behooves the
homemaker to be cautious buyer
on selection of the tree, since more
that beauty is involved. Safety
should be prime consideration.
Here is what Anne has to say on
the subject:
"If you are buying ready-cut
Christmas tree, it pays to buy it
early, according to the U. S. Dept.
of Agriculture. Tests by the Forest
Products Lab. show that the best
way to have a fresh, moist, fire
resistant tree IS to buy it early
when it is fresh and keep it that
way by giving it water.
Know the trees:
1. Pines and frs make the best
Christmas trees if you are going
to keep the tree inside for a length
of time-they hold their needles.
2. A spruce tree is lovely but
will start to lose it's needles in 2
or days.
8. Hemlocks are also lovely trees,
but will loose needles sooner than
the Pine or Fir-not as fast as the
Spruce however.
The differences between the Fir
and Spruce tree-Spruce has round
needles and you can roll them be-
tween your fingers. Fir has fiat
needles and will not roll between
your fingers.
When buying:
Run your hand over bOughs and
see if needles feel moist. Shake
trees to see # needles fall. If need
les fall tree is already dry and
probably too old to absorb water.
When tree is brought home throw
cold water on it. Cut off butt end
about an inch slantwise to open
pores for drawing up water. Set
tree in water and keep cool and
shaded. Have a holder that will
keep tree in water also. No fire
proofing" material is half so effec-
tive as a tree that is moist. Re-
member a tree which has lost, or
is loosing, its needles is dry tree
and a dry tree is = Ire hazard. For
safety sake have a fire extinguish-
er or a bucket of water handy in
case an accident should occur.
