Before shipping he cuts the small branches and sends the best. There is a great deal of holly in the woods about here, ami being in such great demand at the north where it is i extensively used for Christmas decollations it is strange that some one has not shipped it before now. A small bunch of holly with the berries sells ! for a high price, and tbe cost of collecting and shipping being small, the money received from the sale would be almost clear.
