Ornamental Hedges l»£pS ly 
A small amount of money invested in beautiful hedges will add more value to a country 
or town home property, dollar for dollar, than any other similar investment without ex- 
ception. A hedge planted about the borders of a lawn will transform a heretofore bare 
looking spot into a place of beauty; and you can keep it low or let it go high, as a screen. 
City lots may be divided by hedging with fine effect. In dozens of different ways, which 
suggest themselves to the property owner, hedging may be used with great profit. A hedge 
is easily set, a little care will keep it in perfect condition and it is a wonder that more are 
not planted. 
Can you imagine anything 
more beautiful and fascinating 
than a living fence? That’s what 
a hedge is. How much more 
friendly than the old-fashioned 
wood and iron fences! As mod¬ 
ern ways of planting call for a 
clear view of the house front, 
nothing is better than a neatly 
trimmed hedge along the bor¬ 
ders of property. A walk or 
drive bounded by hedges is 
charming.
