Jan.] PLANTING MIXED COPSES. 



the nurfes are completely removed, or very fliort- 

 ly thereafter, the copfe wood itfelf may proba- 

 bly be in a proper condition for being cut down. 

 It will be underiiood, that we do not approve oi 

 removing the nurfes fuddenly ; on the contrary, 

 it mud be a work of years. They may, however, 

 be all removed by the thirtieth year. If the copfe 

 wood, whether mixed, mailed, or entirely of one 

 fort, be planted at the diftance of fix feet between 

 each tree, the principals will not require to be 

 thinned out at all, but will have fufficient room 

 to iland until they be large enough for the pur- 

 pofes for which they were intended. 



The feafon. of felling copfe wood rnuft be re- 

 gulated by the time mod proper for taking off the 

 barks ; which will fall to be treated off in the fub- 

 fequent months.
