celved there will not be any pea-
i nui marketing <iuotas nor will
there be any farm acreage allot-
ments for peanuts In the *-ear of
1!K7.
This results from action taken
by Congress it, July, 19lti when
the Agricultural Adjustment Act
of was mended. The action
resulted from the fact that there

and feeds a"d fats and oils.
This means. Wylle stated, that
anybody ran plant any amount of
peanuts that lie wishes and there
will be no price discrimination V

HOWTO AVOIDXMAS TREE FIRES j Z^rJrJZJX.
•1c 24 |e How to avoid
NBW YORK <UJt — fifteen mil-
lion Christmas trees will grace
American homes this holiday sea-
son, a fai l which concerns many
ot the nation's fire prevention
experta.
The Christmas tree contains
natural resins which iunite easily
and burn rapidly. When decked
out with such Inflammable deco-
rations as cotton and paper
Christmas Trees present a first
clasa fire hazard. A spark from
an eleetrli- eor«l. a toy train, or a
careless smoker may cause a dis-
astrous fire.
Cognizant of the danirer the
New York City Fire l>epartmei,t
has banned natural Christmas
trees this year from *11 public
places except churches. Th" Na

fires. It 'niphasl/.v-t the fact that

fu| as, but less hazardous than a
.big tree. Here are the sugces-
tlons;
1. Keep the tree outdoors in,til
ready to install It. Place the tree
In the coolest part of the house,
away from radiators and heaters
If necessary shut off the radiator
near the tree.
2. I'ndet no circumstances use
cotton or paper for decoration of
the tree r r around the tree. Cotton

and flames will envelop the tree.
IVi not place electric trains
•round the tree Pse only electric
lights for lighting it and see that
alt cords ar> it, good condition and
fiot frayed. l>o not leave trie lights
burning wh t: no on.- is in ill*-

to see whet he i' my needb nt.tr
