But if, as is sometimes the case,
larger plant is to be moved, the
branches may be too large to be cut
back without leaving ugly, short
stubs. 1t is better in such cases to
cut out the entire branch than to cut
it back New branches will appear
in a very short time, and new shrub
can be formed on the old root system
which, being larger than the roots of
a small plant, will produce a new
plant much more quickly. All of the
pruning should be done with the idea
of producing a low. compact and
graceful shrub rather than a tall and
ungainly one.
Evergreen trees and shrubs can
not be pruned like the deciduous var
tiles, and therefore more care should
be used in selecting good specimens,
with as many roots as possible"

TELLS WHAT TREES
TO PLANT IN LYNDEN
Professor Who Laid Out Local Park
Gives Advice on Improving Grounds
tn District

What to plant In the Lynden dis
trict at this season, and how. Is told
as follows by A. M. Doerner, assistant
professor of landscape gardening at
the State College Of Washington, who
laid out the Lynden park last month.
"There are a great many shrubs,
vines and other plants growing along
the Pscific Coast mat have a very
high ornamental value" says Mr..
Doerner. "The fall is the best time of
the year for digging Up these plants
and transplanting them with success.
Small homes, school houses,
Grange buildings, or community
buildings or in fact any type of land
scape may be successfully planned
and planted during the fall months
using entirely or almost entirely ma
tive shrubbery. Many people feel
that as these plants grow wild and
are common they are not adapted to
ornamental use. This theory is false,
as is proved by the fact that all of
these plants may be found listed in
nursery catalogues, many Of them be-
ing among the most highly priced
plants in the Eastern countries where
they are not so common.
"In beautifying the home grounds.
it is more important that shrubs and
trees be properly located than that
any particular variety be used.
Among the native growing plants
that are frequently and successfully
transplanted are Arrowwood, Azarea,
Oregon Grape, Nine ark, Douglass
Spiraea. Ocean Spray, Meadowsweet,
Scotch Broom, (not native but escap-
ed from cultivation) Yellow Flower
ing Currant, several varities of Dog
wood. Elderberry, Haw, Snowberry,
Wild Bush Honeysuckle, Mock Or
ange or Syringa. Rhodendron, Wild
Roses, Salmonberry, Evergreen, Hue
kleberry, Deciduous Huckleberry, Su-
mac and Salal.
Among the vines that are often
used for ornamental planting are
Wild Clematis. Honeysuckle, Bitter
sweet, and Twin Flower.
"Of the trees we find Alder, Quak-
ing Aspin, Birch, Cascara, Service
berry or June berry. Hawthorne, Dog
wood. Madrone, Oregon Maple, Vine
Maple, Oak and Willow. Besides
these there are a great number OF
evergreen trees, those especially de-
sirable being Douglas Fir and Jun
iper, and also Cedar.
"In digging up these plants one
should get as much OF the root system
as possible. Have the holes ready
dug where they are to be planted
Then get the plants in the ground as
soon as possible. II they are very
large it is we'll to tie or brace them
so that they can not sway in the wind
Shrubs and trees growing in the
woods are seldom of a regular oil
even shape. and usually are quite
scraggly. Therefore certain amount
Of pruning is necessary IL desirable
ornamental trees are to be the result
In young plants that have beer
moved the end of the branch may bt
cut back. This will induce branching
| low to the ground, eventually pro
dueing q compact and beautiful shrul
