Domestic consumption has re- mained fairly constant in the last few years, but a booming export market, which has nearly doubled in the last seven years, is taking more than 13,000,000 trees from Canada this year. Most of these trees will go to the United States which receives about one third of its Christmas trees from this country, but exporters have al- readv reported shipments as far south as Mexico and Cuba. The majority of the exported trees are from eastern Canada-- some 4,000,000 spruce from Que- bec, and more than 6,000,000 fir from Nova Scotia and New Bruns- wick.
