128 HEDGE-ROW TIMBER. 



matter what the expense may be, if a gentleman 

 determines to have Hedge-row Timber, he must 

 guard it well. It stands more in need of the 

 watchful eye of the Wood Manager than almost 

 any thing else : in fact, it is of little or no use 

 planting at all, if a good and sufficient guard fence 

 be not immediately put down : but, having put in 

 good plants, and effectually protected them, I say 

 again, I know of no reason why Hedge-row Tim- 

 ber should not thrive and prosper, and, ultimately, 

 turn out as sound, as any other. That it is not 

 so with** the race of Timber Trees now growing, 

 except to a very limited extent, I assert without 

 fear of contradiction; and, with the same confi- 

 dence, I plead this fact as my justification, when 

 I re-assert, that their treatment, from first to last, 

 is neither more nor less, than a course of gross 

 " MISMANAGEMENT." 



THE END.
