REMARKABLE SPRUCE HEDGE

What is admittedly the most extensive hedge In New Hampshire stands In front of the residence of John R. Hatch In the village of Greenland, N. H. It is 200 feet long. It Is composed of sturdy spruce trees, ranged side by side as thickly as their growth will permit, and which *are now 30 feet high. This distinctive feature of one of New Hampshire’s fairest villages is 40 years old. The roadway which runs along the Hatch premises Is completely obscured from the occupants of the house as the house la completely hidden from travelers in the highway. Greenland’s spruoe hedge Is certainly the most extensive thing of its kind which one will find in or about the precincts of New England.
