ON WASTE LANDS. 9 



THE bed feafbn for dropping feeds into 

 rocks is as fbon as they are full ripe and 

 dry ; but there are fb many mice and other 

 vermin about fuch places in winter, not 

 overftocked with provifion, that they de- 

 ftroy every thing within their reach. To 

 remedy this as much as poffible, the feeds 

 may be fo prepared as to be fbwn or drop- 

 ped in March with good fucceis. 



THE preparation of the feeds for drop- 

 ping amongft rocks, and fbwing planta- 

 tions on all kinds of poor land, will be 

 treated of under that head. 



IN order to drop the feeds amongft 

 rocks, let a man take a few of the follow- 

 ing feeds, and drop three or four of a kind 

 into each cavity, obferving to drop the 

 larger feeds into the deepeft cavities, 

 fuch as acorns, beech-matt, hornbeam, 

 evergreen oaks, yews, mountain afh, 

 hollies, haws ; and, into the lefler open- 

 ings, broom, juniper, furze, birch, and 

 wood elm.
