housekeeping having been neglected

with his vast estate about four or five
wide, and about twelve to fif-
teen miles long, has now become the

ATTENTION TO SHRUBS AND
 HEDGES IN THE GARDENS

ornamentals, he does it to keep them within certain predetermined limits, or to get formal effects. Whateve. his reason may be there are certain things he must keep in mind to attain his ends. The first is that every plant, no matter how severely or often pruned, TENDS TO RESUME QUICKLY ITS NATURAL FORM. The gardener should, therefore pI~
 to keep as near this as he can wfI.S still carrying out his. own object. The second is that while removing the upper buds, or bud, the lower buds or growth will be stimulated; but that one or more of them will immediate ly make the effort to take the place of that which has been removed. If the top Of young tree Is cut off, for in stance, a new Header" imme ediately makes the effort to take the place of It. This is important in the pruning CT hedge plants and specimens, where thick growth Is wanted clear to the ground. Merely cutting back plant. which have been allowed to grow tall Will not give the desired results, as the bottom will still remain straggly, While the plant endeavors to form a vigorous new top. The pruning
The Bridgeport times and evening farmer., 1919-07-07

The success to be had with hedges and moral wind breaks, depends Tn large measure on the pruning they get.
 Many beginners make the great mistake of letting the hedge grow to the height desired before they begin to prune To obtain a good face and to a hedge that is well filled out down to the ground, pruning should begin at once Cut back severely when the plants are set, to induce a thick growth of low branches; and head in once or twice each year until the plants begin to attain their nor nal size, when they should be sheared semi-annually, or oftener. In some cases a formal hedge is not desired Parbberry, for instance, is much more attractive if allowed to assume its natural form, and in this case the plants should not be so near together Many of the evergreens make excel lent hedges, but they must be pruned severely and freely from the start if enc wishes a hedge and not merely 2 row of overcrowded trees.
 Remember that in pruning of this kind your aim Is TO CHANGE THE NATURAL HABIT OF GROWTH OF THE PLANT.
 Pruning to Get a Special Form of
 Growth
 Nature has Ger own habit of growth or plant form for every species and every variety that grows. Frequently, however, 1t suits the gardeners purpose to mo dify or en- tirely change this natural habit. In the case of hedge plants and many
