ing y the Cyon cnay be put upon, the Weft or South- 

 fide of the ftock, becaufe if fo, thofe wind? which Are 

 moft dangerous cannot fo foon break off the grafts as 

 on rhe otner fides. 



If you would have a Spreading tree , put in a long 

 Cyon; if a ftraight tree,put on a (hort one, o; let but 

 one bud thrive. 



Good bearing, trees are made from Cyonsof the 

 like fruitfullnefie. Unbind grafes when they have 

 ihot great fhoots , that the binding eat not into the 

 tree , ftrengthen thofe that are weak with a [tick tyed 

 above and below the grafted place, like Splinters to a 

 broken bone, till the cementation be made and con- 

 firmed. 



If you would have ftore of any fruit quickly, cut off 

 the head of an old ftock, and graft thereon. 



To Trees that bear great heads,and are of a Fail and 

 binding bark , fuch as Cherrie trees , fome hard A p- 

 ples, and other kinds of great fruit-bearing,and other 

 plants, it is efteemed neceffary by fo ne to put in 

 more grafts than one , leaft the fap rinding not way 

 enough,the tree receive a check and periihby the 

 difappointment of the fap. Hovever this reafon 

 may hold , certainly 'tis prudence to put in more Cy- 

 oris than one in fuch trees, leaft that one failing, the 

 flock likewife dye, being bark-bound and not ablet© 

 put out a germen. 



Cyons are beft chofen from rhe faireft,ftrongeft,not 

 under-fhoots or fuckers , which will be long ere they 

 bear fruir,which is contrary to the intention of graft- 

 ing; the prime ufe of which I beleive rather to be the 

 expediting, than the .improvement of fruit.
