J4 6 SOIL FOR 



very ftraight and tall, and make a fine tree. 

 There is no wood fitter to cut down for 

 under-wood; it grows very quick and very 



thick.

THE Crab is a tree that grows to no great 

 fize, and large plantations of them* would 

 not be prudent. They are a fine, hard, 

 durable wood, and are ufeful, efpecially 

 for many things belonging to Mills. It 

 has the iineft bloffom of all the flowering 

 kinds, and a few of them properly dif- 

 pofed in a large plantation would be very 

 beautiful. 



THEY thrive beft in a good rich loam, 

 and there will grow to a pretty good fize ; 

 they will alfo grow in very indifferent 

 foils that are dry. If they are planted 

 thick they will grow tall and have fine 

 ftraight items ; but their greatefr, beauty is 

 their fine fpreading heads, fo if they are 

 planted for beauty they mould have room 

 to ipread.
