Chap. 1 2. 'The Conclufion. 555 



By this fhort Supplement, I have added 

 what I had more to fay on the Subjecl: of 

 Raifing Trees : It remains, that 1 (hould il- 

 luftrate as much as I can by Words, what I 

 inean by the next Defign of Rural and Ex- 

 tenfive Gardening, and how far the fame may 

 be ferviceable to the World. 



And firft, it is neceflary that Gardens ought 

 to appear as large as poflible ^ if they were a 

 hundred Acres or more, ftill the nobler 5 but 

 how this fliould be done without the Lofs 

 of too much Ground, or how any Gentle- 

 man fliould be contented to be at fo great an 

 Expence, is not obvious to all that perhaps 

 may read this Book, at firft fight. 



The Method of Sowing and Raifing Wood 

 is certainly much cheaper than planting Exo- 

 ticks, &c. the Way that has been followed 

 in all our Modern Wilderneffes ^ befides, it 

 is of confiderable more Ufe and Advantage ^ 

 and that nothing is more noble than our En- 

 glijh Woods, is as undeniably true. But that ' 

 there fliould not be too much Ground taken 

 up in thefe fort of Rural Gardens, I have 

 propos'd. That in the Heart of all Quarters and 

 Divifions of Wood I have been Ipeaking of, 

 there fliall be a large Lawn or open %]uare, or 

 other Polygonar or Natural Plot, which may 

 be turn d into Kitchen-Gardens, Fruit-Gar- 

 dens. Orchards, &c, all of them of confide- 

 rable Ufe 3 and while the Whole Defign ap- 

 pears grand, thefe ufefiil Beauties are in 

 fome meafurc hid, tho' they help to niake
