Subject: mortar for limestone blocks

Nick,
Is it standard masonry practice to always use some sort of spacer for the
joints between blocks of stone and then tuck point the mortar in?
Does the hydraulic lime mortar have any more adhesive properties than
regular mortar?
I have just enough masonry knowledge to create dangerous public works.
