A FIRE RETARDANT SOLUTION FOR YOUR CHRISTMAS TREE
• I
The county forester passes
on the following method for
making a Christmas tree fire
resistant.
Mix 9 ounces at Borax (or
Bora teen) with 4 ounces of
Boric Acid to one gallon of
water. Let the tree stand in
it, until it absorbs all the
mixture that it will. Check the
water level each day and re
' place water that Has leva-
porated. This will not only
help make your tree safer, ;
but it will also help it to stay ]
green longer. ,
"Let's all have a happy and
fire safe holiday this year."

I Since the racing season is

by Carl Reeves and he turned
out to be a pretty good dri

home without cash in his
pocket for his race. Car No.
