CHERRIES. 



SECTION I. 



On tie ConJlruBion of tie Clerry-Houfe. 



THE production of this juftly-efteemed 

 . fruit, at an early feafon, has much 

 obtained of late years ; infomuch, that ma- 

 ny of our capital gardens are furnifhed 

 with a compartment for the purpofe. Thefe 

 are of various conftrudions ; occafioned 

 fometimes by the fancy of the conftruc- 

 tors, the fubferviency to other purpofes, 

 and the converting of places that were ori- 

 ginally ereded for the production of other 

 fruits or plants, to that of the Cherry : in 

 all which, where properly managed, it has 

 given general fatisfadion. Confequently, 

 it might be thought ambiguous in me to 

 fay, that a Cherry-houfe fhould be of fuch 

 and fuch a conftrudion ; nor do I wifh to 

 advance fuch a propofition. But, where 

 it is in contemplation to ered one, I would 

 recommend fuch as is reprefented by Fig. i.
