CHRISTMAS TREES Twenty years of work by the forestry division of the state Department of Conservation and steadily increasing plantings by landowners that rose to 1,600,-1 000 seedlings in 1952 have made Illinois the top state in the production of non-shedding Christmas trees and greens. Leonard Schwartz,, director 6f conservation, makes this announcement, and adds that the two state nurseries will probably distribute 2.500,000 seedlings next year. About half a million Christmas trees will be cut in Illinois this year. White, Scotch and red pines art the best-liked varieties. Nearness to market, with lower handling and transportation costs, ability to provide fresh trees and the non-shedding quality of our native trees are boosting the demand for Illinois Christmas trees, Schwartz says IF IT'S WORTH DOING lis Worth Doing Right There is No Substitute Fer Good Plastering.
