I4o Of the Management y and 

 oi March Winds, will find them to be owing 

 to a more violent Caufe than pure frofty Air 

 is ^ bur, to take our leave of this ftrid Enqui- 

 ry, leaft it lead us too far oat of the way, 'tis 

 by means of this open Expofure in the 

 Winter, that our mod furly Lands are cor- 

 refted, and it therefore keeps the Husband- 

 man under thegrcateft Necelliry of uiing his 

 Ground after this manner ; and both of thefe 

 Fallowings are of that Benefit in Gardens and 

 Plantations, that the Direftions relating 

 thereto, ought to be writ in Charafters of 

 Gold, for that *tis the common Method that 

 is taken of breaking up Ground and planting 

 it immediately, that occafions very much of 

 the ill Succefs of Planting and Gardening, as 

 well as Husbandry ; the Earth being oft times 

 (( might fay always) four and undigefted 5 

 and no wonder if the new planted Tree, or 

 new fbw*d Seed does not thrive, bur if he 

 doesftrike Root at a!l, looks in a very ftar- 

 ving Condition, and 'tis ten to one if ever he 

 makes a good Tree, except the Ground be 

 naturally very good, which does not gene-' 

 rally happen. 



Let that Perfon, therefore, that has a mind 

 to plant or to low either Maft or Corn, or to 

 plant large Trees, confider what time of the 

 Year he intends to do it 5 if at Michaelmas ^ 

 or fome little time after, then plough thq 

 Ground, or prepare the Holes wherein his 

 Trees are to lland in, viz* the latter end of
