A SPLENDID EXAMPLE OF WELL-TRAINED CALIFORNIA PRIVET THE HEDGE PLANT UNIVERSAL! 



The Qateway and Fence of Civilization 



The ordinary fence reflects largely the desire of the owner to secure privacy regardless of cost. That 

 fence which develops and grows more beautiful from year-to year reflects the owner's eminent good taste. 

 Fences such as are shown on this and the following pages are a delight to the eye the year around. They 

 serve the purpose for which they are intended in admirable fashion at low cost and add considerably to 

 the value of the property that they adorn. 



Ever since the founder of this firm made himself the champion of California Privet here in the East — 

 over forty years ago — we have in a measure specialized in the production of various plants suitable for 

 hedges. On our own farms here at Little Silver and in Delaware, we grow Privet and Barberry by the hun- 

 dreds of thousands. They are available in various sizes to suit different purses and we can fill orders to the 

 amount of any reasonable number of carloads for landscape architects and others using them in quan- 

 tities. To those requiring hedge plants in larger than thousand lots we will, with pleasure, make special 

 quotations. 



Here are plants that form living walls of lovely green
