‘Privet, the Living Gence 

Plant 10 to 12 in. apart. Prune back to within 4 to 6 in. 
of the ground to make them branch low and thickly. The sec- 
ond spring, if not sufficiently thick, they may again be pruned 
back a little higher. After that prune to keep the hedge the 
height and width desired, usually about three times a year. Avoid 
severe pruning after the middle of August.

A rapid growing Privet of upright habit, taking the place of

Boston or Japanese Ivy 

“Hardy ‘Vines, Natures “Drapery 
When planting cut the tops back severely, particularly cling- 
ing vines such as English, Engleman’s and Boston Ivy, and 
Euonymus, as it is the new growth which clings. Twining 
vines, such as Bittersweet, Clematis, Honeysuckle and Wisteria, 
must have a support around which to twine. Wisteria becomes 
heavy and should have a strong support. Soil near a foundation 
is often poor. Replace it with good soil, and see that they do 
not suffer for lack of water, especially the first season. 
Five or more of a kind at the 10 rate. 
If by parcel post add 3c each, not less than 10c per package, 
for Missouri and adjoining states, except mail sizes.
