Plan of a country place at Bedford Hills, Ne-u- York 



''laid-out" garden, where, in their off seasons, thev will not look 

 like a ragged fringe to a shrubbery border; and then, if one wishes 

 an informal garden, to build one which is truly naturalistic, with 

 as much of the spirit of woods and fields as it is possible for art to 

 capture. 



This sort of garden should be remote, or at least seem to be re- 

 mote, from houses and artificial things, and these may be banished 

 bv means of tall planting or grading or a combination of both.
