Show Make Tree Fireproof This Way It's Easy You can fireproof your Christmas Christ-mas tree by a simple method of letting it absorb the proper amount of ammonium sulphate. First cut the trunk of the tree at an angle or in a "V" shape. Then weigh the tree and divide the weight of ammonium sulphate sul-phate needed. Dissolve the indicated amount in water, using one and one-half one-half pint for each pound of sulphate. Put this solution in a jar or bucket, set the tree in the solution in a cool place and leave it long enough for the tree to absorb the solution fully. Then the danger of fire is at a minimum. |
