The committee considered the
possibility of expanding the
use of tree boxes, now under
trial on Fifteenth street, and,
of course, there are those who
wish to include flower boxes.
Action on these was deferred
until a more careful study
can be made of the problems

recreate Lake Toxaway so miles

the Southern Appalachains.
An 18-hole golf course also is
planned.
In the early part Of the
Century, ToXaway Lake had a
shoreline of IA miles, and the
inn there was regarded as one
of the most exclusive of its
time. Disaster struck in 1916.
and the dam went out because
of faulty construction, and
after unusually heavy summer
rains. All the inn guests left

Fast Hedges

From J. Robert Wendell -
11O6 University boulevard West,
StlueH Spring, Md.
Please recommend a fast
growing. trouble-free ever
green hedge plant of approxi-
mately 8 to 10 feet in height?
What is your comment con-
cerning the hemlock?
AnSDer
California privet is probably
as fast growing as any and the
least costly. Columnar arbor-
ivitaes are less work and slower
growing. The hemlocks cannot
withstand drying winds in win
ter, require only two prunings a
year, and are one of the faster
growers. 1t is best to buy the
smaller sizes, prune them to
within a foot or two of the
ground so as to encourage low
branching, and even then, a
second pruning should be given
when the new groth is 6 tc 8
inches long. For screening pur-
poses any Of these might well
be spaced 21a to 3 feet apart.
The hemlocks will grow in
either sun or shade, the others
in sun.

Doewood Woe

From Mrs. S. T. Eastman
2413 Cypress driUe
Falls Church, Va.
Can you suggest what might
be wrong with the enclosed
dogwood leaves?
AnSWer
Apparently there is some
thing wrong with either the
drainage, or with the soil in
which the dogwood is planted.
Suggest you examine the soil to
see if there is good subsurface
drainage; that the trees are not
planted too deeply, and that
they have not been injured by
a lawnmower or some other
implement at the base. ANY,
one of these will affect the flow
of sap, the supply of air, and
plant food to the leaves.
