THe use of evergreens as all-the-year, outdoor adornment is rapidly increasing in favor. The 
conifers, or large cone-bearing evergreens as shade and protection impart an atmosphere of 
companionship and snugness to the home. The smaller kinds are effective as screens or hedges, 
and the larger as windbreaks. The dwarf varieties planted about foundations and filling angles 
and nooks, give distinction and an effect of refinement not equalled by any other plants. 
The great variety in shades of green, yellow and blue, and of growth habits, lend vast power 
to the landscape architect eager for effects, besides the more formal results obtained by shearing.
