BEAUTY IN FRONT YARDS.
How to Plant Shrubbery For an Orna-
mental Effect

If you wish to help in making your
home town attractive, improve the
front yard with some shrubs
For a small front yard where it is
impracticable to plant trees there is
nothing better for ornamental effect
than few well placed shrubs. Once
planted and established in the soil
they require little attention except in
spring, when they should be pruued
back so as to keep them symmetrical.
In planting shrubs much will de-
pend upon the layout of the lot
and its topography. II is easier to
spoil an effect than it is to obtain a
good one. 1t is good plan to get
the advice of competent landscape
gardener. If you can't study your
yard and its possibilities thoroughly
before you set out shrub. A plain
greensward is far more desirable from
an artistic standpoint than lot lit
tered with miscellaneous collection
of shrubs placed without regard to
harmony in the general scheme.
For a small yard among the best
shrubs aside from the roses. are the
hydranGeaS. of which there are several
varieties, some dwarf; the honey
suckles. Japanese SNOWFALL, barberry.
rose acacia, Irish yew. Cataipa bunGii.
Magnolia conspicua, Magnolia soulan-
giana, japanese cypress and the many
varieties of evergreeus. The ever
greens, however. appear to better ad-
vantage in rOomy yards
Then there are the white and purple
lilacs, Japanese ounce. Syringa grandi-
fora. althea Jeanne dare, pure white:
Dcutzia Graelis and the azaleas These
shrubs are hardy, rapid growing. at
tain large size and bear beautiful flow
ers. The aZaeas should be given a
northern exposure and be well pro-
tected in winter.
Many of these shrubs will be found
growing in the park strawberries, and
those who have friends among the park
gardeners can obtain valuable advice
from them about the planting and care
of shrubs
