CUTTING CHRISTMAS TREES.
Woodsmen Already at Work Gathering
Firs For Holiday Market.

Woodsmen Already at Work Gathering
FRS For Holiday Market.
The work OF cutting Christmas trees
In Maine for the rest of the country
has begun. says Damariscotta (Me)
correspondent of the New York Herald.
Nearly 100000 trees are In demand
annually, and In Maine the Christmas
tree trade has become an industry of
the first Importance. Workmen have
begun to go into the woods to cut
them. Throughout Knox. Lincoln and
Sagadahoc counties as well as all coun-
ties in the northern section of the state
the work of selecting and cutting be-
gan few days ago. and the process of
loading and shipping them on fat cars
to the big cities of the west will soon
be begun.
There Is an art in raising Christmas
trees. One of the principal features Is
to have them grow evenly, for crook
ed Christmas tree cannot be given
away. Therefore they must be packed
standing NJ, YET far enough apart not
, to, be dwayfed, and this ~ the secret OF
raising the Christmas tree. .tri
A Christmas tree takes five years to
grow. The woodsman who raises them
can count upon going over the same
strip Of land once every five years I'm
til fifteen years ago the balsam fir of
the cold northern woods was consider
ed the most worthless tree that ever
grew.
There is an interesting bit of history
connected with Maine Christmas trees
which is worth repeating. 1t was if
teen years ago that a party of hunters
returning on a steam yacht from a
caribou hunt in Newfoundland called
at Sargentville. on the eastern shore
of Penobscot bay, and took a ride In
land to visit some abandoned copper
and lead mines in Blue hill Stretch
Ing back from the roadside and sweep
ing over hill and valley were thou
sands and thousands of young frs in
the full vigor of rampant growth.
The owner of the yacht looked al
them carefully and came to the con-
clusion that they would make ideal
Christmas trees, much better, In fact
than the scrubby, irregular pines that
were then in use. He hired some men
to load the deck with 500 of them and
took them to Boston to speculate with
in the market district.
The marketmen about Faneuil hall
fell over themselves In their greed tc
get the new trees, and the yachtsmar
sold out his entire stock at an immense
profit and forthwith sent for more
The next year $4,000 were sent to the
Boston yachtsman. and from this time
on the success of the Ar balsam as q
Christmas tree proposition in both
Boston and New York became assured
