CHRISTMAS TREES
Tenders Al Eyrewell Tenders have been called by the Canterbury conservancy of the Forest Service for the purchase of Corsican pine Christmas trees from the Eyrewell Forest Tenders will close on December 12, and the trees must be taken before December 23. Lots of 100 or more only will be supplied, and successful applicants will have to cut and load the trees themselves. Single or small lots will not be supplied. The senior forester in Christchurch (Mr H. H. Wilson) said yesterday that about 500,000 young Corsican pines would be cleared from a strip of land in the forest, which would be developed for farming by the Lands and Survey Department. They were suitable for purchase by groups and organisations engaged in fund-raising projects.
