Hedges form a living wall or fence which grows in beauty from year to year. 
Whether it is used as a living wall of green, neatly trimmed and kept within borders 
cr as a free-growing row of shrubs which screen out unsightly views, there is nothing 
quite so satisfactory as a hedge. 
Where little space is available, the hedge makes an ideal boundary planting. 
A hedge is decorative the year round and will add much to your lawn. 
Our hedge plants give splendid results. Here you will have a variety of 
plants suited for any purpose to which you wish them used, 
HOW TO PLANT HEDGES 
Prepare the ground by plowing or spading a trench 18 inches wide by 18 
inches deep. Be sure the soil is gcod and does not contain cinders, ashes or other 
harmful contents. Set the plants in a straight line in the trench, about 1 inch 
deeper than they originally stood in the nursery row. Firm the soil well around 
the roots adding water all the while. Apply well rotted barn-yard manure or some 
high grade fertilizer around the plants working it into the top soil. 
Be sure and cut at least one-half the tops of the hedge off after planting as 
the plants grow better and make a nicer hedge. Always trim hedges so the top is 
narrower than the bottom. Cultivate well.

Henderson’s Nursery, Athens, Texas: 
Early last spring my brother, L. I. Dodwell, 
3812 Rawlines St., Dallas, Texas, ordered an 
assortment of roses for me, and I have fully in¬ 
tended since they bloomed, to write you a letter 
of appreciation and to say they were without 
doubt, the loveliest and sturdiest bushes I have 
ever planted. Your selections were splendid. They 
have all bloomed and thrived, and I am expecting 
them to give me more pleasure this coming sea¬ 
son as their roots are fully established. I have 
banked them for the winter and giving them the 
best of care. 
I should like your spring catalog of roses or 
shrubs and if you care to send me several copies, 
I will be very glad to place them where they will 
bring you some orders. 
With kindest wishes, I am

Please And enclosed check for $150.00 to apply 
on our account. We shall endeavor to make ad¬ 
ditional payments on the balance as rapidly as 
possible. We have had and continue to have con¬ 
siderable money tied up on government contracts, 
and hence it is hard for us to take care of our 
accounts as quickly as we would like. 
We would like to take this opportunity to 
thank you for the excellent merchandise and 
splendid service and co-operation which we 
have received from you during the past season. 
Our business with you has been the most satis¬ 
factory of any rose grower we have purchased 
from, and it will indeed be our pleasure to con¬ 
tinue purchasing from you in the future. 
Yours very trul 5 %
