CHRISTMAS TREES 
800 % Profit Per Year 
Qrowing Christmas Trees ! 
5,000,000 trees cut and sold each year for the Christmas trade 
is an enormous market for the growers of evergreens. This whole¬ 
sale cutting of forest trees has almost depleted the wild supply and 
increasing prices are inevitable. Here, then, is an opportunity for 
you to grow and market Christmas trees. 
Six years is the average time required to produce a six-foot tree 
from four-year old transplants but trees for table decoration can be 
sold at fancy prices two years after planting. Four-year old trans¬ 
plants (bought as our 6-10 inch, once transplanted stock), at a cost 
of 5c each in thousand lots, sell, when matured, at from $1.50 to 
$4.00 and more retail -a profit of over 800% per year. 
Plant an acre now (3000 to 4500 trees), or even a few hundred 
trees and get in on the ground floor of this new business. 
Norway Spruce, White Spruce, Concolor Fir and Douglas Fir are 
the best varieties to grow for Christmas trees. Concolor and Douglas 
Fir planting stock cost the most but they demand the highest fancy 
price as Christmas trees. Norway Spruce is the fastest growing tree 
used for this purpose.
