How much will you pay for that Christmas tree? People In some parts of the coun try will pay plenty this year! Wholesale prices for the better trees were around 30 cents a lineal foot. Add transportation costs, busi ness overhead, profit and you can tie up quite a little sum in that bit of evergreen around which your presents will lay Christmas morn ing. Local Scene Klamath Palls resiaenu are more fortunate, living near an area where they can either cut their own tree or purchase from local stands at cheaper prices. Cutting of Christmas trees at high elevations has been completed but some cutting on private land is still going on In the basin. "All designated trees In the na tional forest reserve area have been cut for some time," according to R. L. Cooper, chief of the national for est service here. "Shasta fir trees were sold this year for 10 cents lineal foot In tree lots and white fir sold for a few cents less," Cooper continued. "White fir trees grow at lower elevations and do not retain their needles as long as Shasta fir. Most of the higher elevation trees were cut by October 15. and have been stored for shipment since then." East Marketa "Eastern marketa in St. Ebuls and Chicago purchase many of the Shas ta firs from here." he said. "Al so many of the later cuttings go to the Los Angeles and San Francisco markets." Cutters usually start shipment Immediately after Thanksgiving and stands may be found ail over the country selling trees until the last minute. Daily, truck and trailer loads of Christmas trees can be seen pa trig through Klamath Palls, south bound for California markets. N Bargains "Stand prices will nrobablr hold throughout the season without drop ping tne last lew days before Christ mas." Cooper said. "Most operators destroy the trees before euttlna prices, they figure It's bad for next years marser.- Gl fin i "" H 1 I I II f " i r I Bk . , I . II C I I I .
