Dancing Out
the Christmas Tree
In Sweden, St. Knut’s Day is the traditional day to
discard the Christmas tree and end the season’s fes
tivities. Children’s parties are the favored way to
strip the tree of its decorations, after which the chil
dren are free to “plunder" the edible treats and small
gifts placed on the tree especially for the occasion.
Finally, everyone “dances" the tree out the door:
Singing special songs, they pick up the tree and toss it
out into the snow! Swedish children look forward to
incmg-oul parties almost as much as
mas itself and what better way to
ibat the post-Christmas blahs?
Those who dance arc thought
mad hy those who hear not
he music.
Use a sock tied around the end of a yardstick to clean
under the refrigerator.

“THERE’S MORE TO IT THAN JUST NPK”
For over 47 years, farmers throughout the Mid-Atlantic Area from New York to
Virginia have produced millions of dollars of crops using Lebanon Extra fertilizer.
Lebanon Extra is an ammoniated, homogenous, granular NPK fertilizer. With the
increased emphasis on using less and precise applications of plant food, Lebanon
Extra provides the nutrient sources that you can depend on, and not just NPK but also
secondary and six micro-nutrients. The nutrient integrity of Lebanon Extra is superior
to bulk blend fertilizer products. When using row applications or banding accurate
amounts of plant food it can be important to use a safe, quality, uniform grade product.
If you are using a blend with MAP compare the value of Lebanon Extra.
