In winter time American gardens present a dismal, naked sight that emphasizes 
the general dreariness of the season. Little of the beauty of spring, summer or fall re¬ 
mains. Yet it is so easy to change this with a few evergreen vines, shrubs and trees and 
some bright berried shrubs. With an attractive evergreen background, winter seems shorter 
and much more pleasant and nothing is a more beautiful sight than to see them partly cov¬ 
ered with snow.
