In pruning shrubs, be careful to cut out the long rambling 
shoots of the last summer’s growth, which disfigures their appear¬ 
ance. Cut away, also, branches of shrubs which interlace each 
other, that every shrub may stand clear and well-defined. Take 
away their suckers, and let each shrub be kept to a single stem, 
as I have before observed.
