contimfing sales and earnings up-
swing. The Company also estab-
lished a new, all-Lime record in

tion and other sources moved from

COMMENTED I{USSELL F.

h-ibutable to a high level of opera-

Research And
Th two major needs of the
Christmas Tree Industry are the
need to produce quality trees and
for research into the problems o£
growing trees, Shclton Clmmber
of Commerce members were told
last Thursday night.
Speaker for the program at the
monthly lnemberslfip meeting was
Herber'L Plumb, a retired Forest
Service employee and now oper-
ator of a tree farm near Black
Ltmb"- said the outlook for ual-
ity Christmas trees 'as excqlent
but that the grower was going Lo
have to pay more attention to put-
ling top quality trees on the mar-
ket.
He said hdica£ions to him from
merchants l]ad been that the arti-
ficial Christmas trees were de-
clining.
HE ADVOCATED a grading
system for trees, commenting that
most other crops v, rel,e graded so
that if cnll products were put on
the market, they were labled so
the buyer knew what he was get-
Ling.
A major need of the industry is
for research in tbe problems el
growing Christmas trees. Phmlb
said.
The Forest, Service conducts re-
seareh, he said. but it is almost
entirely in the area of timber pro-
duction.
There is research being carried
on in the cat and mid-west, but
it is not ahvays applicable here.
He said one step which might
help to get some ChrisLmas tree
research was the recent appoint-
ment of Lee Wells of the Hofert
Christmas Tree Company to the
research advisory committee of
the Forest Service,
HE SAID ONE WAY in which
the Chanlber e(mld hch) wqs to
support efforls to get the Forest
Service and the Department at
Natural RoSOllrees to get research
projects started.
Citing an exalnt)le of the need
for resear(;h he said he had a
problem with sometlfing defoliat-
ing some of his trees, and that
he had been told it was : fungus
while another grower with the
same probh, m was told it was
caused by an insect.
ausl to bc snre. he said, he had
sprayed with both an insecticide
and a funoicidc, but that this
was expensive, and if there had
been research available, he could
have found out what the trouble
\\;vas and would have had to have
used only one spray.
