CALIFORNIA PRIVET 
CALIFORNIA PRIVET. One of the leading hedge plants and 
undoubtedly Ihe largest planted of them all; Us foliage produces 
abundantly the deepest, richest green, almost an evergreen; does 
not shed its foliage until late winter and then only in an exposed 
condition. Very hardy, easily and quickly pruned, you may 
shape it in any position desired by trimming. They should be 
planted l>/2 inches deeper than they stood in the nursery row: 
where you set it dig about 12 inches deep and 12 inches wide, 
use some stable manure at the roots (do not use any com- 
mercial fertilizer), set the plants 6 inches apart in the row, dip 
the roots in water before planting; after plants are set cut 
them down to 4 inches from the surface of the ground, this 
will cause a thick new growth to start, and is very essential 
for a beautiful hedge, do not cut back again until they have 
made 10 inches of new growth, when cutting each time allow 
about 1 to 2 inches above where it was cut before until you get 
the height desired. After planting spread barn-yard manure 
at surface of ground; keep free from weeds the first two years, 
by this time it will get its start, then nature will do the rest. 
Did you ever realize what an admiring and luxuriant privet 
hedge you could secure at a very small cost, and how much it 
would add to the value of your property? To find the exact 
number wanted, measure the space where it is to be planted and 
multiply the number of feet by 2, this will give the exact num- 
ber. Our privet is strictly first class, well branched and heavy 
rooted. Can be successfully set any month in the year that the 
soil is not frozen, except .lune, July and August.

Sirs: My plants I received of you last year are loaded 
with berries. The KELLOGGS PREMIER are commenc- 
ing to ripen and are very large, and extremely heavily 
loaded with fruit. They are so good that I would lilie 
to set a large number of them if it's not too late; please 
let me know. Yours truly,
