Cobb, Department of Forests' and Waters, on the “eve” of another yuletide season. “First of all,” said Cobb, “the purchaser wants a fresh tiee, one which will stay fresh'and green throughout the season. There are three ways of cleter ming this factor The tree is fresh if you can bend a needle and its resilient, if you can bump the base of the tree hard on the giound and the needles do not fall off, and if the bot tom of the stump feels sappy moist ” “Before putting the tree in its stand at home,” added Cobb, “cut an inch 01 two off the base of the tiunk This will allow it to lake up water more easily Be sure to add a pint or quait of water each day to the stand, keeping the water level above the bottom of the tiunk ” “For safety s sake,” said the State Forester, “never decoiate the tiee with cotton, paper or other materials that burn easily. Avoid wax candles, check lights and wiring foi worn spots and cracks, do not overload electric circuits, and its also wise to spray the tiee with a fileproof ing matenal made up of a com bination of two gallons of sodi um silicate (water glass) and a gallon of water, to which has been added six teaspoons of liquid soap. The latter is used as an adherent.” “A dry tree is a fire hazard, and as such should be disposed' of properly, never burn it in’ a’ fire place,” concluded Cobb. “Remove the tree to the out-of doors for the trash collector or, as is tradition in some areas, have it picked up for Twelfth Night programs whei e trees are burned during appropriate ser vices under the supervision of the local fire companies.
