fery-grounds, raifed ro a proper growth for 

 immeuiate bearing; g nerally choofmg fiicli 

 as are of lome advanced growth, with tole- 

 rably full heads to bear fome fruit the fame 

 year, if early planted, and that will fooa 

 commence full bearers. 



Or they may be expeditioufly raifed abun- 

 dantly by cuttings and fuckers, &c. according 

 to the following directions, and will com-

 obtained, or any forts approved, may be

 mencing good bearers, and not fo apt to run 

 to lucktrs as the lucker-raifed plants. How- 

 ever, the difference is not very material, and 

 good trt^es may be raifed by either method ; 

 and cxs luckers of one, two, or three yqars 

 growth may be planted, and being furnifhed 

 within roo's, they at once form immediate 

 plants, (•'■•metim°s furnilhed with a fmall head

To raife them by cuttings, it may be per^

 November, &c. or in February or March;
