Do Hedges Exhaust the Soil. 
A tree or plant only takes from the soil the amount of nutritive matter 
required to develop its growth. A close trimmed hedge which is not allowed 
to grow materially larger from year to year, takes from the soil a very small 
amount of nutriment. The same is true of lawns which are kept close cropped. 
“The Privet arrived in splendid condition and I am much pleased with them. The hedge will 
certainly be an enormous improvement for the school grounds." 
"Please find enclosed money order in payment for Privet received. They were splendid. I will 
buy exclusively from your list hereafter."
