BUILD BOUNDARY LINES HEDGELIKE AND ~
ALTOGETHER ORNAMENTAL AT SMALL COST.
Substitute for Hedge Can Be Made With Little Trouble by Setting
Stout Posts in Ground and Stretching Woven Wire Along
With Vines Trained 0ver-NatNe Plants Best

Let US suppose that there il line

and your neighbor's. or along the
front yard, or that fence already ex-
lists that is anything but attractive.
What can be done to make the boun-
dairy line pleasant to look at?
Several things. II you don't care to
plant shrubs and hardy perennials
there, why not make substitute for
a hedge by the use of vine like our
native Ampelopsis, known to you, per-
haps, as American ivy, or Virginia
creeper? This can be done with very
little trouble or expense by setting
stout posts solidly in the ground and
stretching woven wire netting along
them, and training this vine over it.
1t is of very rapid growth, and the
plants, II set about twenty feet apart,
ought to develop enough in one sea-
son to furnish quite a covering for the
netting, AS this plant grows in al
most all localities at the north, you
need not send to the plant dealers
for it. The children will be delighted
to provide all the plants you want
from the woodlot or the river bank,
where they will find it growing pro-
fusely.

will cause them to send out side

through the meshes of the netting, as
they develop. BY the end of the sec.
ond season the netting ought to be so
thickly covered that nothing of the
support will be seen, and the general
effect will be quite hedgelike, and al
together ornamental. Especially will
this be the case in fall, when the fol-
iage of the vine takes on it's rich col
oring of scarlet and crimson. When

1t sheds its leaves 1t will take on an
other ornamental phase, for then its
purple fruit will be seen clustered
thickly along the branches. The vine
must be clipped occasionally, during
the summer, to prevent 1t from
spreading in all directions and giving
ragged look to your fence. 1t is
quite important that stout posts
should be used, as the netting must
be stretched tightly, to prevent it
from sagging. The end posts should
be well braced to stand the strain

of wide sawed posts with row of
