loosely and openly arranged than in most 

 members of the family. Cedrus verticil- 

 lata is a distinctly graceful plant, notice- 

 able even among the deodara and other 

 cedars. Both have the beautiful blue 

 tint mentioned above. 



HEDGES. 



Hedges require to be frequently 

 trimmed and to have considerable mois- 

 ture. But these things can easily be 

 supplied in grounds of moderate size, 

 and hedges are used with excellent effect 

 on such grounds. 



For a good hedge you must have 

 thoroughly prepared deep soil; set the 

 plants close, and shear them at least 

 twice a year. For evergreen hedges the 

 most serviceable plant in general is the 

 arbor-vitaj. The plants may be set at 

 distances of twelve to thirty inches 

 apart. For choice hedges in home 

 grounds, especially outside the extreme 

 northern states, the retinisporas are use- 

 ful. One of the most satisfactory of 

 all coniferous plants for hedges is the 

 common hemlock, which stands shearing 

 well and makes a soft and pleasing 

 mass. The plants are set from one to 

 three feet apart. Other plants that 

 hold their leaves and are good for hedges 

 are the common box and privet. Box 

 hedges are best for low borders about 

 walks and flower beds. The dwarf 

 variety can be kept down to a height 

 of six inches to a foot for any number 

 of years. The larger growing kinds 

 make excellent hedges, three, four and 

 five feet high. The ordinary privet 

 holds its leaves well into winter in the 

 north. California privet holds its leaves 

 longer and stands better along the sea- 

 shore. 



For deciduous hedges the National 

 Council of Horticulture says the most 

 used plants are the buckthorn, Euro- 

 pean thorn apple or Crataegus, the osage 

 orange and various kinds of roses. 



THE IDAHO LAW. 



The new Idaho law provides that nur- 

 sery firms that have complied with the 

 state horticultural laws in the inspection 

 of their nurseries, or the nurseries from 

 which they procure their stock, may have 

 duplicate certificates of the health of 

 their stock, upon the payment of $1 for 

 each certificate. Any violation of the 

 law, in the selling of the stock that is 

 not inspected or having a clean bill of 

 health, is made a misdemeanor, with a 

 fine of $25 to $300. 



Any nursery stock may be brought 

 into the state without having been grown 

 in an inspected nursery, provided the 

 shipper shall submit the stock to a qual- 

 ified state inspector, who will give him 

 a certificate of health, charging the 

 shipper for the inspection.

Bluffton, Ind. — Myers & Co. say 

 that Easter trade was better than ever, 

 plants selling well and carnations being 

 in special demand. They had a large 

 crop on and retailed them at 60 cents to 

 75 cents a dozen.
