Be safe during the holiday season by decorating the home with the plant materials known to be entirely safe in the presence of in q u is itiv e children A number of plant materials are p ote ntia lly toxic and wimingOennDg FOR ALL YOUR PRINTING NEEDS • COMPLETE COMMERCIAL and PRINTING SERVICES. capable of causing severe skin rash, producing serious illness or responsible for arousing an allergy. Wilbur W. Burkhart, ex tension agent, encourages use of plant materials to promote a festive atmosphere and at titude of gaiety during the holidays but suggests caution in placing any fruited plant materials where they can be reached by small children. Children usually distinguish between fru its they were allowed to eat freely last sum m er and the inedible berries on the decorations. Caution does not mean a home with a drab, lifeless surroundings at Christmas time since many fruitless plants are available and may be placed within the reach of children without fear of the consequences, he said. Any plant on the questionable list need only be placed out of the child's reach. An example , of a substitute for Jerusalem Cherry, known to cause skin rash and digestive distur bances if crushed or eaten, calls for a small orange or kumquate to lend the color of fruits in green foliage while posing no threat if a child should remove and eat a small quantity. Burkhart cited Irish yew berries in foliage, poinsettia, m istletoe and Jerusalem Cherry as potentially toxic plants found among those used for decorative purposes Inform small children who can understand that such plants are not to be eaten and observe the child’s reaction to the novelty. When the plant is no longer a new item and accepted by the child as something to see and not touch, the holiday can be m erry with greater assurance no accident w ill occur, he concluded lr\-M et board to meet Dec. 6 • LETTERHEADS • ENVELOPES • BUSINESS FORMS • BROCHURES • CATALOGS • STATEMENTS • BUSINESS CARDS TLOOK PUBLISHING CO.
