 and where the soil is poor and thin, one- 

 year seedling Larches, nursed one season ; 

 two-year seedling 'Ash, Mountain -Ash, 

 Birch, Elm, Hornbeam, and Sycamore, also 

 nursed one season ; two-year seedling Beech, 

 Oak, Chesnut, and Horse Chesnut, nursed 

 two seasons, whose roots have been tapped, 

 as directed in Chapter III. Section II. Two-

 Silver Firs, which have stood thin in the 

 seminary, and are well rooted ; are of the 

 age and size admissible, and from which 

 there should be no deviation, if the plants 

 have been properly treated, and are heal-

For less exposed sites, and where the soil 

 is generally found from six to twelve inches 

 in depth, all the above deciduous kinds may 

 be nursed a second year in the same rows, 

 except the Larch ; which, if nursed a se- 

 cond season, must be removed into fresh 

 rows ; but plants of the above description 

 will be found to succeed best, not only here, 

 but in alt situations. Two-year seedling Firs 

 of all kinds, except the Scotch, being also
