Ornamental EvergFeen Hedges.

Jdlging from its being SO rarely seen, it
would appear not to be generally known, that
tho common hemlock, Abies Canadensis, ans
1efs admirably for hedging purposes, bears
trimming well, and IS, we think altogether
unriYalled among eyorgIeeas for this purpose.
It may be planted either in double or single

Latter being preferable, more easily cultivated,
and kept clean in It's early growth.
