Select a tree cut as recently as possibly. Cut about an inch, diagonally, off | the bottom of the trunk. Stand the | tree at once in a container of water | and keep the water level above the edges of the cut during the entire 8, 19 time the tree is in the house. If the tree is not to be set up at ¢ keep it, still standing in water, a cool place. According to the i vestigators, freshly cut trees, sta ing in water, “cannot be set on fire by candle or match fir but of course will not withstand a 1 source of heat.” The tests showed the tree standing in the needles from dr: becoming inflammabl tinue to appear fresh Trees standing chemicals, hov did not take up the chemicals as rapidly or in as large amounts as in the. ca water, which resulted in inc combustibility, needle discolo .
