Holly makes Christmas decor
I f you plan to gather your own
Christmas holly decorations, some
special care and treatment will keep
the leaves and berries intact through
the C hristm as season. The same
treatment is recommended for holly
that is to be shipped to friends across
the United States.
Ray M cN e ila n , Oregon State
U n ive rsity Extension home gar
dening agent, suggests the following
pratices to keep h olly bright and
cheerful:
--Cut holly when the temperature is
above freezing and the sky is cloudy.
A windless day is also desirable in
order to keep the holly from drying
out.
-Spray the cut holly with cold water
to remove chemical residues and
dust. Holly marred by sooty mold or
algae may need to be washed in soap.
I f possible, keep the h o lly damp
from the time it is cut until it is put in
the house as a decoration.
—To delay natural leaf drop and to
extend the life o f the cut holly, treat
the cutting with a mixture o f naph-

Barley is too good a bargain to be
overlooked when consumers are
searching for nutritious foods to ser
ve their families with confidence.
N othing a rtific ia l is added to this
grain-good food, which contains
protein, phosphorous and iron.
Both types o f barley, regular and
quick, are “ pearled.” Pearled means
that the barley has had the outer hull
removed from the grain kernels by
abrasive action. Barley-unlike other
grains, such as wheat, has a tough,

Barley's tender, slightly chewy tex

superb in soups, as almost everyone
knows But barley is also a great base
fo r casseroles, main dishes and
desserts, as you’ ll come to see.

available in garden stores. Follow the
label directions. For a greater gloss,
add two or three tablespoons o f high

As a decoration in the home, keep
holly away from direct heat and keep
it as cool as possible.
"T reat holly decorations as i f they
were a bouquet o f flo w e rs,” says
McNeilan. "Keep the stem in a bowl

Most holly sold in stores and at
roadside stands has been treated, but
M cNeilan advises asking the sales
clerk to be sure.
When sending h olly to friends,
pack it in strong cardboard cartons

Resist the temptation to put in a few
pears or apples. Any ripening fru it

Ship cut holly in the fastest way
possible. The less time in transit, the
better.
