Show THE OGDEN STANDARD-EXAMINE- R i t irea 1 re-'ri- vi - v -- ry : i. , i balsam are fir and used in ogden. But the Christmas tree de luxe is the DOUGJjAS balsam fir. Of little use for lumber, it possesses ideal characteristics for holiday purposes beautiful and symmetrical with long horizontal branches and deep green foliage, each tiny leaf and bud of which sends out a breath of aromatic fragrance. CRUSADE EVERY YEAR: Yearly a crusade is started against the Christmas tree idea,? usually protesting the waste of timber and the destruction caused to our young growth through their removal. The forest service in answer to 'th'ese protests points out that five million Christmas -- annually within the The New England states and New York alone consume a million and a half. trees, amounting to some 500 carloads. Each year a "Christmas tree fleet" makes its way down lake Michigan with a tree at the mast of each vessel In token of the cargo it carries. Five million trees of the size used for the holiday festival is, relatively speaking, a drop in the bucket, f state, for that number could be grown on 6,000 acres of land. The lumber industry cuts over a thousand times this acreage In a single year. If on December 26,1921, the nation's timber cutters should begin work two hours late, the resulting decrease in acreage annually cut would be equal to the area exploited by the Christmas tree industry for" the entire year. The annua cutting of five million trees Is Insignificant as compared with the loss through forest fires which each year sweeps over twelve million acres, causing a yearly wastage of about $20,000,000. DECLARED BENEFIT. In addition,-i- t is pointed out that the lands from which a large portion of the trees is taken is often more suitable for pasture and is more valuable after the timber crop has been removed than it was before. In the European forests the removal of Christmas trees is made to serve the welfare of the forests when at the holiday season the cutting of the small trees is in the nature of an Improvement thinning and at the same time a source of revenue. The removal of Christmas trees, from our own national forests, under the supervision of forest officers, places a tidy sum in the nation's pocket each year and results in a more healthy and faster growing stand of timber- remaining. FOREST MEN LIKE IDEA. It has been demonstrated that by cuttfng Christmas trees of certain evergreen species above the lower whorl of branches the remaining limbs turn abruptly upward and often reach a. height of six feet in legs than two years. If a crop of Christmas trees can be cut without actually destroying the parent tree and a new crop sprouted within two or three years, the system may become of considerable economic importance to the industry. But, so Jar as discontinuing the Christmas tree Is concerned, the foresters are against it. Their creed is to put each acre of ground and every tree to its highest use, and to what better use can a tree be put, they ask, than to bring joy to the hearts of our children on their greatest holiday. or-est- (iSy For Monday Selling ALL-WOO- L ' : ; f i BLOOMERS The best value in quality and price, all sixes, la colors white and pink with elastic waist and knee bauds. 83c values.

HI STORY OF TREE. The history of Christmas tree usage extends far into the mists of antiquity ' and it origin is difficult to trace. Some say it is connected with the Tree of Time, Tqdrasil, the .grear tree of Norse within whose roots and mythology, branches heaven and earth are bound. Some say the custom may be traced to the Egyptians who at the time of winter solstice decorated their portals with branches of the date palm the symbol of life triumphant over death. An ancient legend of the Scandinavians relates how; the Christmas tree owes its origin to the'service tree" which sprang from soil once drenched with the1 blood of two slain lovers and how each night during the Christmas season mysterious lights played amongits branches. To this legend may perxiaps De traced our custom of ating the tree when darkness comes. Among the Greeks, Christmas is shown as the feast of lights. NOT ALWAYS SAME. To people of different localities the term, Christmas tree may mean fir, spruce, pine, cedar, or evwi magnolia, for each region makes, use of the most suitable species found near its markets. In the vicinity of Chicago a short-needl- e pine found in' Michigan and Wisconsin may be used. On the iJacific Coast the white tir finds favor, while throughout Ohio Norway spruce is largely used. In Maryland and Vir ginia the scrub pine finds, its way into many homes, and farther south cedar and holly.
