 ither plants, and the fruit trees trained on them will get the full 

 >enefit of the sunshine. Fig. 5 shows a south aspect border at s, and 

 lie north side of the fence at N. The border facing south is here 

 ihown slightly raised. Such a border is warmer and better adapted

 num amount of sunshine. Fig. 6 shows at a glance how to lay out 

 ;he small garden : A and B are borders having south and west 

 ispects respectively. They are broad borders, c shows a narrow 

 Dorder facing north, and D, one facing east. These are useful 

 borders for summer salads, etc. ; E shows the Strawberry quarter ; 

 F, that devoted to bush- fruits ; and G, the vegetables for main crops. 

 So planned the lines of nearly all the crops will run north and south.
