DSAAAc5 aIu Lnos QencienCy Is bein
taken care Of by the use of artif
cial berries. Green holly is plentiful
and Of excellent quality. Many farm
families, men, women and childrel
are engaged in the industry an,
hundreds Of dollars will be realized
Dy them from now until a few day.
before Christmas. This money. Il
many cases, win be used in the
purchase of needed winter clothins
and other necessities. This is one
crop" that never fails of PRODUCING
ready cash. Buyers call at the homes
and buy the finished product at a
good price. Each evening finds the
farm folks gathered around a glow
ing fire wrapping the greens" into
beautiful wreaths or long stFeamers
Tor decorative purposes. In years
gone by the holly was considered by
land owners as useless and a nuis-
ance and gladly gave to all who de-
sired 1t the foliage; but for the past
few years they have come to real
ize its value and woe be unto those
who poach the holly from their
property. In former years the trees
were trimmed of limbs in order to
more easier to get the berry twigs
for decorating the wreaths, but TO-
day care is taken to take only the |
berry twigs, leaving the large limbs |
to reproduce. The owner of a num-
ber of berry producing holly has a
cash crop that required on work to
produce.
