Lou, meant overtime sessions,

How To Cut Yule Greens From The

A home owner may gather all
the Christmas greens he needs

This is particularly true of Aus
trian and white pine. Removal of
every second or third branch of
a hemlock, pine or spruce will
promote better growth if these
trees have not been pruned for
some time. Prune a fir in mod
Grafton.
Notice any elongated branches
in both trees and shrubs. Re-
move these for Yule use. A yeW,
rhodendron and firethorn may
yield a long stem without it be-
ing missed. Generally, cutting
hack a branch six to eight inches
will be sufficient. Boxwood, how
ever, should be very lightly
shipped.
The best time to purne is when
the temperature is 40 degrees or
above. If too cold, twigs may be-
come brittle Wear gloves when
pruning. And use foil to wrap the
gumny resin ends of branches.
