CUTTING CHRISTMAS TREES
Demand for Maine Evergreens Is
Bigger Than Ever Before.
Business Begun Two Weeks Ahead Of ths
Usual Time.

The business of cutting Christmas
trees for the big city markets will put
about sl50,0OO into Names stocking,
this winter. for the demand is CREATE
than ever and is about two weeks
ahead of the usual time.
This early and increased call for
Christmas trees is taken as evidence
of great prosperity. One of the most
satisfactory features of the business Is
the fact that the young frs. which are
almost exclusively used for Christmas s
trees. are good for nothing else-in
many sections being considered nuis-
ance. as they grow like burdockS and
crowd out better trees.
In some sections where the fir is es-
pecially prolific. the cutting and pre-
pairing for market of Christmas trees
is made the occasion Of festive gather
ings. corresponding to the huskngs i'll
the fall, whole families going into the
woods and taking their dinners along.
a man cuts the tree close to the
roots. and a boy or a strong girl clips
away with a sharp hatchet the few
dead branches near the base. Women
and boys tie the trees into bundles of
Il dozen each. binding them with strong
cords, and then the harvest is piled
into hayracks and taken to the nearest
railroad station.
The smaller children gather the trail
ing creepers Of the ground pine. pluck
lunches Of glossy wintergreen and
gather the scarlet berries of the wild
raisin shrub. all of which are packed
in boxes and sent away to the cities
for the making of wreaths and gar
lands.
The evergreen harvests are generally
bought by men who make a business in
winter Of supplying the holiday green
markets of the large cities. although
many farmers ship their crops to mar
ket on their own account For trees
I'VE to six feet tall the buyers in Maine
pay cents. and for trees six to 10 feet
tail, 10 to 10 cents. In the city these
trees bring 25 cents to 81.
