Now commence taking out the sod, and be
careful to put the spade into the ground on
the same angle that you wish TO have the

beating down both with a spade or shovel.
Thus 60 on laying up all the sod that is

Planting the Hedges his part depends
much on the material used; and as have

remarks TO natives.
The thorn, crab and plum, may be set
IN two rows on the top Of the embankment
about foot asundcr, and from four to six
inches apart in the rows. Cotton wood
may be set in single row on the top of
the embankment, about eight inches apart
in the row, and inserted about or 10 inches

For planting on the top, the emDankmcnt
should be made in the fall and set early in
the spring.
Cuttings or the willow Of the dwarl kinds

For dry ground, select your cuttings Of
willows from dry ground; and for wet,
