THIS difference of flavour is generally 

 attributed to the fituation, but never to 

 the 'foil, from a fuppofition that there is 

 little difference. 



A GOOD fituation is certainly of great 

 advantage to the flavour of fruit ; but if 

 the foil is improper, though ever fo ikil- 

 fully pruned, the fruit will not be high 

 flavoured, although often fair, and beauti- 

 ful to the eye. 



THE general method in making the 

 borders in kitchen-gardens, is to make 

 them rich, without regard to the different 

 kinds of fruit to be planted in them. 



WHEN thus prepared the trees will of- 

 ten thrive, look well, and produce great 

 quantities of fruit ; but it will be very in- 

 ferior in flavour to the fruit of thofe 

 trees that are planted in foils which are 

 properly adapted for them.
