Hedges, Windbreaks, Shelters and Live 

 Fences. A treatise on the planting, growth 

 and management of hedge plants for country 

 and suburban homes. By E. P. Powell. Illus- 

 trated, i2mo, pp 140, cloth. Orange Judd Co., 

 New York. Price 50 cents. 

 A compact, practical handbook on the manage- 

 ment of hedge plants and hedges has long been 

 needed, and the demand for such a work is 

 rapidly increasing. This neat and attractive 

 volume is giving just that information which is 

 needed by those who live in the country or who 

 own suburban residences. It gives accurate 

 directions concerning hedges ; how to plant and 

 how to treat them ; and especially concerning 

 windbreaks and shelters. Anyone who will 

 follow the directions given will be able to avoid 

 those errors which make most of our country 

 places more or less haggard with half-dead 

 orchards, shelters and hedges. It discusses fences 

 briefly, as these are rapidly giving way to wire 

 fences ; but it enlarges on windbreaks, which are 

 becoming of increasing importance every year. 

 The illustrations are not only photographs cover- 



ing the whole subject, but include numerous 

 ground plans for laying out suburban lots and

CHARLES MAJOR'S NEW BEAR 

 STORIES. 



The latest work of the author of 

 "When Knighthood was in Flower" 

 has been secured by The Ladies' Home 

 Journal. As would be expected, it has 

 to do with adventure— the experiences 

 of some frontier children. There is a 

 childish romance woven innto the stor- 

 ies, and they will have a keen interest 

 for boys as well as for their elders. 

 Under the heading of "Blue River Bear 

 Stories" Mr. Major's serial will begin 

 in the October Journal.
