niEPNGS MOUNTAIN HEB
Holly Now Grown In
Many Parts of Land
Grown on the hillsides of thtcoastal
states from Maine to Texas
and up the Mississippi valley to
Missouri, holly is a pretty but slowgrowing
plant.
Leaves are evergreen, the margins
of which are provided with
rather widely separated spines
Weak and close-grained, the wood
is exceptionally white, making it
highly desirable in the manufacture
of woodenware, cabinets and inte
rior finishing.
As. a result of scientific discoveries
holly cuttings will take root
quickly when they are treated with
hormonelike substances. Christmas
holly has been converted into potted
plants. These plants can be set oul
as a permanent ornament for landscapes.
Growth regulating substances?
indole butyric acid and naphthalene
acetamide?are on the market in
liquid or powdered form under various
trade namea. The chemicals
are applied to plantings of fresh
cuttings kept moist, cool and well
shaded.
NeA Bethlehem did shepherds keep
Their flock* of lambs and feeding
sheep;
Two whom God's angels did appear,
Which put the shepherds in great
fear,
'Prepare and go," the angels said,
'To Bethelehem, be not afraid;
For there you'll find this happy
morn,
\ princely babe, sweet Jesus born."
