If the branches of any trees extend over a neighboring tenement, gardens or yards, the owner of the latter shall have the right to claim that they be cut off, insofar as they extend over his property, and if it be the roots of the neighboring trees that extend into the land of another person, the owner of the land into which they extend may cut them off within his property.
