A MISTLETOE RANCH
Novel Enterprise of Two Georgia
Young Women.
Huliday Evergreens Raised • a
Large Bualu fur Citr Markets
-Tb« U »rk and Its
Results.
“I tbi ik we have about the first
and only holly and mivtietoe farm in
the country, or in thé world, for that
matter." The «¡»eaker, aay« the New
York Sun, wm Alias Lucy Carteledge,
the elder of two Georgia young wom
en w ho three years ago began to raise
holly and mistletoe for market. "It all
started from my going to New York
to study art.
My mother, who is my
only living parent, by many sacri
fices finally saved enough money for
me to make the venture. I did not
achieve much in the way of art. but I
learned what a big world of smart
people this is and how much I had to
improve before there was a»iy chance
of setting it afire with my brilliancy.
Once convinced that 1 had little or
no artistic ability, 1 set about to
find some way to earn a living
The
high price paid for holly and mist le
toe in New York city was one of
many revelations, and on inquiry I
found that the prettiest pieces were
brought over from England, i hi« gave
me an idea, aud I wrote home about it
to iny sister, who is a very practical
person.
“She began at once to go over our
500 acres ami cleared away the under
brush around every holly tree and
holly bubii. In some instances with
those aroqnd the house jhe had gone
so far ns to trim away all the dead
limbs and have the earth about the
loots enriched ami spaded up.
For
the preservation of tlie mistletoe she
cut off the muscadine and jessamine
vines climbing over exery tree whrr*
there wiq» n sprig of it growing
She also declared her intention of
trying to plant the seeds In the hoi
lows and forks of ol<l oaks, where she
suxv a chance of their taking root and
growing.
“During the next summer we had
little to do besides sit and wait for
xvhut the autumn would bring forth,
but this energetic sister of mine wa»
caieful to see tbut no harm came to
the numerous little holly trees winch
she discovered about the roots of the
large trees.
She stated that site in
tended to transplant them in winter,
and for the first time wc realized it
might not be such an easy mattei to
get a holly farm as we anticipated
Negroes are so superstition« that it
Is almost impossible for n white per
son to keep up with the numerous
queer things they believe. When our
old cook beard us talking about trans
planting young holly she was horri
fled, and told us It was the worst kind
of luck, ami that whoever did it, th«
minute the bush grew and cast m
shadow large enough to cover their
grave they would die.
We fourni the
sup<*rstitlon quite genera! among the
negroes, so, of course, we reel’*ed at
once that none of them coni'* e de
pended on to plant our holly grove
According to their advice the only
way to obtain <m*h trees was by pine
Ing n lot of berries on a stump near
where we wished the tree and allow
th«* wind to blow them
Only fancy
what a stupid idea! Still II wns most
serious to uh . us we were entirely de
pendent on them ns laborers.
"However, our firat harvest came be
fore transplanting time
As noon mm
the berries were sufficiently grown to
judge of we sent specimens oh to
several firms in Washington and New
York. Almont by return mail \b* re
ceived surprisingly large orders, but
at different prices The best came from
the Washington firm which supplies
the white houwe. At Christ mas we
found two distinct grades of holly
Branches gather'd from trees around
the house, xvhleh had been trimmed
and fertilized, were more beautiful
than the others.
The foliage wiim
richer ami the berries larger, more
numerous ami v«»ry much more bril
liant. My slater fancied the same ini
provrnient was to be observed in the
mistletoe, but xve finally decided thnl
the most beitutiful specimens of thl*
were taken from post oak trees And
now. after three years’ experience, w«*
consider it a fact.
*<)ur profits for the first year were
gratifying, ami as soon ns there wnn
Kufiiuicnt cold to send the nap down
into the roots of the trees we begun
our transplanting. But do voti know
my sister and I were compelled to do
It with our own hands
The negroes
would dig the holes and put in the
fertiliser, but when It came actually
Io planting the little trees we had t,.
do that oursehes
We worked early
ajh I late «luring the months of Jan
uary and February and managed to
set out ten acres of holly. This past
season we cut out every other one of
these young trees and sold them ss
< liristmas tree«.
They were well
shaped, Tied fine foliage, with large
rich berries, so
of course they
brought the very best prices For our
mistletoe we select old oak trees
preferably post-oaks, and insert well-
ripened berries under the bark in
the fork hollow, where they will hate
a chance to germinate and caich hold.
