Beautiful Hedges add so much to the appearance of a prop- 
erty, and are, everywhere, coming into more general use. 
They look better than fences, last longer and cost less; when once established, they require only a little 
cultivation and pruning each year to keep them the desired shape and size. A fence is more trouble, a 
hedge grows better-looking every year.
