as i)laiine(l, with the result odds and ends are left 
throngli the nursery whieli do not move. 
Instead of i>‘rowin<>' shrul)s among’ the trees an¬ 
other and better i)lan is to grow trees among the 
s]irii])s. That is, in planting a given block al)ont 
everv tweiitv feet instead of rnnning a row of shrnhs 
])nt a row of trees. This will allow the trees to de- 
velo]) nniformly on all sides, add to the api^earance 
of the nursery and not overcast the ground while giv¬ 
ing light and air to shrnhs and trees. 
'The custom is followed very largely in Boskoo}), 
Holland, wliere every foot of groniid has to i)rodnce 
its qnota of plants and there is no jn-actice that is 
([iiite e(inal to it for growing si)ecimen trees, es])ecial- 
ly if exti’a care is used in the selection and no crooks 
or defective trees allowed in the s])ecimen row.
