INDOOR CHRISTMAS TREES 
Firs, Spruces, Pines, Cedars and Sequoia gigantea 
make excellent indoor living Christmas trees, later 
planted in the garden. These trees come with a ball 
of soil around the roots that must be kept moist. We 
can supply tubs at small additional cost. Soak burlap 
in water, wring out and pack firmly between tub and 
ball. Renew moisture every 3 or 4 days. Before plant- 
ing, test the ball with your thumb. If dry and hard, 
plunge in a bucket of water for a minute or two.
