CROPPING AMONG ORNAMENTAL PLANTATIONS* 



The ornamental plantations intended to be 

 cropped with vegetables fhould now receive their 

 crops, imlefs the Yellow, the Swedifh, or the Com- 

 mon field Turnip be in view. Care fhould always 

 be taken not to overdo plantations by crops of 

 vegetables. The trees, it muft be remenbered, 

 are the principal crop ; the others are intended 

 chiefly as motives to lead to a more effedual cul- 

 ture of the land, and to help to pay for keeping 

 it clean. In cafes where the trees are anxiouily 

 wifhed to rife rapidly, that objed will be beft 

 promoted by digging and hoeing among them, 

 without any kind of under-crop being either fown 

 r planted.
