was not enough green picked early in 

 the localities where some of it could 

 be had to anywhere near meet the de- 

 mand. Therefore other decorative 

 greens will have to be used for 

 Christmas. 



"We believe bouquet green will be 

 getting scarcer from year to year in 

 this state. Pickers are demanding more 

 money for it right along, owing mostly 

 to the large territory that is necessary 

 to cover now to pick it, as it cannot be 

 found in as heavy quantities as it was 

 a few years ago in any one place, and 

 bouquet green disappears as soon as 

 the timber is cut away." 



On page 18 a picture of Mr. Pollworth 

 and a deer that he shot will give an 

 idea of the quantity of snow in the 

 woods. One may be quite sure green 

 picking has ceased in that locality at 

 least. 



THE BRITISH NONWAEEANTY. 



In an English court a buyer of grass 

 seed sued because half the seed, deliv- 

 ered in two parcels and sowed on sepa- 

 rate farms, did not germinate. The 

 seedsman, in addition to the nonwar- 

 ranty, rested his case on the lack of 

 evidence that the seed sold actually had 

 been sold and the court found for the 

 defendant. In commenting on the case
