Hedge 
Plant deciduous hedge plants six inches apart, and 
after the first season, cut them down to within four 
inches of the ground. From these stubs many sprouts 
will start the next season, and that makes it dense from 
the ground up, which is a necessity for a good hedge. 
To make a satisfactory hedge the ground should be 
well prepared before planting. If the soil is of poor 
quality a trench should be dug 15 to 18 inches in depth 
and filled with good, rich soil. This will insure strong 
and rapid root growth. 
Barberry, Thunbergi. This is a dwarf Barberry; very 
hardy and very ornamental. Its yellow flowers are 
followed by bright scarlet berries. In the fall its foli- 
age turns to scarlet and gold. Price per 100, 12 to 
18 inches, #12.00; 18 to 24 inches, #15.00. 
Amoor Privet North (Chinese Hardy). Upright in 
growth. Dark green leaves and extremely hardy. 
Just the right kind of Privet for a hedge in northern

Privet hedge, easily kept in shape by trimming new 
growth two or three times during summer season.

The New Columnberry 
(U S. Plant Patent No. 110) 
The most sensational introduction in hedging plants of 
recent years. This new form of Barberry has the same beau¬ 
tiful foliage and berries as Barberry Thunbergi, but its 
growth is upright, thus eliminating practically all pruning. 
Perfectly hardy. Withstood the severe winter of 1933-34. 
Also the equally severe hot and dry summer of 1934 with¬ 
out damage. Makes beautiful individual specimens. Has 
been mistaken for Boxwood because of its extremely formal 
shape and its dense, deep green foliage. Just think of hav¬ 
ing a beautiful Barberry hedge that practically takes care 
of itself.
