Holly Harvest in Full Swing at Ranch
Near Monmouth; 48 States, Canada and
Mexico Included in Holiday Shipments
MONMOUTH In December when most farmers ex
cept dairymen and turkey growers are having a slack work
season, Mr. and Mrs. Jack Stump of Monmouth are, rushing
witn tneir annual nony crop Harvest. Holly and vuletide seem
to have been inseparable for many centuries, and the demand
for this Christmas greenery comes from all over the nation
to the Stump farm.
Stump grown holly is Shipped
thousands of miles every year.
Two helpers are employed doing
office work and eight more for
cutting aud packing. The trees
were five-year-old stock when set
out in 1929 by the late John
B. Stump, pioneer Willamette val
lev agriculturist. He became in
terested in holly culture many
years ago, first planting a decora
tive hedge about his home; then
setting out 14 acres as a commer
cial venture. The trees are now
14 feet tall. It is the English vari
ety, which has bright red berries,
glossy dark green prickly-pointed
leaves.
The first commercial yield was
gathered in 193 6. Since then, ad
vertisements placed in national
magazines have brought orders
which keep the Stumps busy with
shipments for weeks before
Christmas. This year's first ship
ment was made November 15,
and orders are still being filled.

Last year's final order went on
its way January 6.
"Most of our wholesale bus!
ness this year was done with Bos
ton and Wichita customers," Mrs
Slump says. "I received a long
distance call from Boston about
one order. We have shipped to
every state in the union; one box
went to Mexico; and several to
Canada, to Hawaii and to Alaska
The European war has not affect
ed our trade at all.
"We do a retail business with
many large firms, including some
In Portland. We furnish holly for
weddings and parties, and cor
sages for gifts and favors. This
year we shipped approximately
2000 small gift boxes of one and
three pounds each."
There Is no rotation of bear
ing trees from year to year. Each
tree yields, annually, but is nev
er pruned too closely. The sprays
are cut by experienced men who
have been employed by the
Stumps for several seasons. No
spray is permitted to touch the
earth - lest it become soiled. In
rainy weather it is dried carefully
before being packed. Cold dry
weather, such as prevailed last
week. Is fine for holly harvesting.
The stump holly is planted on
well drained, slightly rolling land.
but is not irrigated. Cultivation
is similar to that given orchard
crops, and manure is used for
fertilizer. The trees are sprayed
and inspected carefully to prevent
Insect or other encroachment.
