Red Cedar Continues As Favorite Yule Tree By ROBERT SCHMIDT When we think of Christmas we think of Christmas trees with all their lglhts and decoration!. The kinds of trees most commonly used as Christmas trees are red cedar, fir and pine, depending to a large extent on the species na tive to the area. Many carloads of northern fir trees are shipped in to North Carolina each year but unfortunately by the time they arrive here and are sold they are pretty badly dried out and are dropping their leaves. The red cedar is a shapely tree and is a favorite in central and eastern North Carolina where it grows naturally. I personally be lieve the pine is greatly under rated as a Christmas tree and should be used more often. Pines are plentiful and make a pretty tree when decorated and also give off a pleasant "piney" perfume When trees are obtained sev eral days before Christmas the base of the stem should be freshly cut and placed in a bucket or tub of water in order that the tree will take up some of the water and thereby keep it from drying out so soon When taken into the house the tree may be set in a bucket or tub of wet sand. The important thing la to keep the tree from drying out so that It will not become a fire haiard. Unfortunately, there have been no practical inexpeneive methods to treat Christmas trees to make them ftoeproof without damaging the appearance of the tree. It has been recently reported that trees may be fire proofed by dipping them in a strong solution of am monium phosphate- as much of the ammonium phosphate salt as the water will take up. A thorough spraying of the tree might take the place of dipping. It Is said that a tree so treated will char If subjected to flames hut will not Trial Balloon Asks Holp; Curious Child Appeased Chicago ( AP) -Ten-year-old Ter ry Strom berK loosed a gaa-UUed balloon from her Chicago home recently bearing a message: "Help, pleaae."

Also, the leaves of the tree treated with ammonium phosphate will remain green longer than an untreated tree. I checked with a chemist here at the college and he veri fied the fact that ammonium phos phate will retard fire and there fore should be a good fireproofing treatment. My suggestion would be that you try it out by treating a ?mall pine or cedar branch and attempt to set it afire with a light ed match or other small flame. Ammonium phosphate is a fer tilizer and may usually be ob tained at a seed or fertilizer deal er. Any of the solution or salt left over may be applied to thr garden or lawn. ? Last Timet Today ?
