Xll INTRODUCTORY VIEW. 



In the tenth and last general head, I en- 

 deavour to set forth, not only the importance 

 of properly fencing in plantations, but a few 

 rational methods of rearing new, and of 

 training, reclaiming, or otherwise improving 

 eld fences, so as to make them continue du- 

 rable. The methods of building and coping 

 stone walls, and of building mud and turf 

 walls, are also exemplified; with some re- 

 marks concerning a certain district lying be- 

 tween the river Spey and the Murray Frith ; 

 which, however, are applicable to the far 

 greater part of Scotland.
