(Shrubs should bo planted In
beds, oh Is shown by the iiecom

the ground Is spaded the better.
On hillsides, where thebeds would'
wash, the. pUinlH liiny. bo' set In
holes In the sod. All ground to bo
set to berries and fruit should bo
plowed nnd harrowed before plant
ing operations start.
After the shrub' bed has been
prepared for planting a hole should
be dug large enough lo allow the
roots lo spread out naturally nim
deep enough to allow planting at
the proper depth. It Is better to
have the hole too deep thun too
shallow, as the plant can be raised
up a trifle as the dirt is placed In
nround It. ' The shrub should bo
planted ns deeply or a trirlo deep -er
than It was In the nursery. When
the planting Is done on slopes
where previous preparation of the
soil bed IK Impossible, the hole
should be dug quite lurgo to pro
vide sufficient loose soil to give
the roots a chunce. The sod should
he laid lo one side and If n forkrul
of well-rotted manure, some hone
meul and a handful of potash are
thoroughly mixed with the. soli In
