More About Hedging.

Mr.. EDITOR: Having written "a short article on
Hedging" in reply to your correspondent whose
signature is @E. a. B,"I thought I should say
no more on the subject but seeing that he is still
writing on this question, aud that many Of his
ideas are perfectly absurd, I believe it to be my
duty to say something more.
1 have had experience in growing fence and
plants for many years, and having a greater desire
Of seeing the country improve than merely that
my name should appear in athe papers, what l say
will be based on experience and not on suppOsitiOn.
Also, my name is given in full, 90 that all who read
the article, may know who I am.
Now, Sir, Z. d. B.. recommends setting the hedg
plants two feet apart and trimming of the side
branches ; which every one that has any experience
knows is wrong. He says the Usage is a tree, not a
shrub, and wants room. If I want trees Lset in
q grove, not in q hedge. Now. Sir, the reason why
Usage is valuable for hedgingis that it is hardy,
and will bear c~roWding and trimming, and can be
converted into a shrub, just what we want. I
know it does well set as close as four inches, tho
it is a vast Of plants. Six or eight inches is close
enough. If set wider, they must grow two or three
years, and then be topped if you want a hog-tight
fence. This process makes a strong fence, but
makes it more difficult to trim afterwards and can
never be made 50 neat. The cheapest and best
way 10 make a good hedge is to commence right and
keep it right. I win give my plan Of hedging, With
which have had perfect success. I think that
those who have NO expspiencs in raising plants
can bay them cheaper than they afford to can raise
them. Seed planted in the hedge row is time and
money lost. ] should get good sound plants, should
prefer q common or small sized plant, as every one
knows the more root a plant has in rese ting, the
more sure it is to grow, especially if it should be
dry. The plant roots very deep. A large plant
has a root from two to three feet long, and as they
root is left in the ground, while the mall plant
has nearly all the root left and grows better. I
should prefer plants grown here to those shipped
from the East. The hedge row should Be veil
plowed and narrowed, but not thrown mp, except
wet land, then draw a straight furrOW, deep.
Let one hand take the plants, first having them
within rwo or three inches Of the yeIIow
root press them against the bare side Of the fur
50 they will stand. Let another follow With
! hoe Ell the furroW level then tramp the dirt
then ell up again, and leaving the dirtiOOae
IN TOP. Be certain to set deep enough 50 the rain

DKarf Trees.
/ am your regular subscriber,
WILLIAM HALL.

What is understood by the term Dtragf as It is
generally applied to trees2 A tree Of deminuative
growth, caused by being so pruned and trained, is
not a dwarf tree, as the term is generally under
steek Such are only so in appearance at the
time, aud viii not retain that appearance unless
kept so BY the pruning knife. Neither can the
same result be obtained from them. Bnt a Dwarf
is raised from . bud Or a graft, inserted into a
plant of tho same genius, but of deminutiVe
growth, this being its natural habit, the stock
affecting the graft by an interruption Of the foW Of
sap, tending to produce early fruitfulness. For
instance the pear is worked on the ounce, ~(angers,)
the apple on paradise apple, the cherry on the
mahalst cherry, all these being shrubs in charae-
ter, and the tree thus produced is devided in its
character between q tree and a shrub, aud de-
nands a higher price hence it is that we often
see trees that have been worked on free stocks cut
back a time or two, and sold as Dwarfs. Tbs-hint
may not be out of place at this time. E. h. B..

Mr. Editor: In compliance with the
request Of your "Peru correspondent" in
your last issue, permit me to say that as
regards a proposition looking 10 the
educational interets of Nemaha county.
l think hat the Objest can be accomplish
ed by an association of all the teachers of
the county, say at Brownville, when an
exchange of views could be had upon
such educational topics as might come be-
fore it. Perhaps this movement would
have been more successful earlier in the
season when every district could Save
been represented, and while all the
schools were in session ; yet a%majority of
the schools viii be in operation during the
summer months. However permanent
organization can be affected with an
executive committee, to propose a pro.
gramme in the interval for an adjourned
session. If we would succeed, we must
have an organization and by The perfec-
ton of the same we would accomplish
much. To the consideration of those
now teaching, or who intend 10 teach,
would we especially recomend this
movement. Now the question arises as
to the most expedient plan to be adopted,
by which every teacher, and friend Of
education can be enlisted in this move.
ment. Perhaps it would be advisable to
secure the cooperation of several teach
ers in the county, to prepare a programe
and call a meeting, stating the object and
subjects for discussion
Teachers from adjoining counties no
doubt, would meet with US and add to the
interest Of our association. But if these
few suggestions are deemed inexpedient,
