Henry J . Vaux, dean of the School of Forestry, told them that California is the outstanding market in the nation for their product. He sketched this picture of the state's Christmas tree industry: Sales of trees in California total over $14 million annaully in a less than fourweek PERIOD. “ Of the more than three million trees sold annually in the state, 2.8 million came from Washington, Montana, Oregon, and British Columbia. California growers produce only about one-half million trees each year or 15 per cent of the total on the market. Natural stands of young forest -grown trees contribute Store e smn age w Pt ARROW SHIRTS whites & fancies &.

Some 18,000 trees are harvested from 6,000 acres of plantations started within the last five years. Most of the natural stand trees come from Nevada, Placer, Plumas, Shasts, Lassen and Siskiyou counties. The important plantation counties are Sants Cruz, Sonoma, Napa and Contra] Costa. . Douglas fir is the largest seller and "Silvertips” bring the best price while white fir is secondto both in sales and price. Vaux pointed out that California’ expanding population and high average income per person are increasing the demand for Christmas trees. He urged the growers and marketers to boost production and improve quality to capture a greater sh state market. Although some Nevada County people have planted fir trees for Christmas time use, by far the biggest volume of trees comes from natural wild stands. These arenow coming under management. New roads are being built, trees are thinned , pruned, and the growthi'regulated to bring about maximum quality. Farm Advisor Doug Hamilton has tried various management practices inseveral locations.
