i6o ON AMERICAN 



Oak, Afh, Beech, &c, will grow much 

 fatter than an Englifh Oak, Afh, or 

 Beech. 



I HAVE at this time Oaks of different 

 kinds, Am, Beech, and Birch, from Ame- 

 rican feeds, and the fame forts that are 

 Englifh, growing in the fame nurfery ; 

 there are fome of both forts that make 

 long moots and flrong ; and in many of 

 them there is no material difference. I 

 believe it is more from the richnefs of the 

 foil than from the trees, that caufes the 

 great difference in the growth of wood in 

 England and America. 



THERE are many kinds of American 

 oaks that have been railed from feed fome 

 years fince in England, and are planted 

 out, and are fine thriving trees, and grow 

 much fafter than the generality of the 

 Enolifh ; but as thev were new trees, and
