During the past IS wears more than 16,000,600 firs have been sacrificed for Christmas trees. The demand waa small at first, but oon as the city dealers were made acquainted with the quality of - the trees, they bought more of them, ao for the past five or six seasons the shipments have been more than a million every year.
