An artistic and symmetrically arranged 
x\. garden or lawn is always a delight to 
to the eye, and the pleasing appearance of 
such a garden enhances the value of the 
surrounding property. Trees properly trim- 
med, variegated or flowering shrubs, flowers 
massed with a regard to combinations of 
color, foliage plants — all of these contribute 
their share to the charm of a garden. The 
style of landscape architecture should be 
made toconform to the topography of the land 
to be devoted to that purpose. Many beauti- 
ful results have been gained by the expendi- 
ture, not so much of money as of time, 
thought and labor.
