FENCES. [Mai/i 



All winter planted and drefled hedges, which have 

 not been cleaned out lafl month, will now forth- 

 with require to be cleaned. A week fpent in this 

 work at this time, will be of more advantage to 

 the hedges, than a whole month at the diftance 

 of a month afterwards. The greateft error a 

 Iiedger can be guilty of, in managing his hedges 

 at this feafon, is to wait till they become over- 

 run with weeds before he clean them. 



The Whin hedges which were fown in March, 

 will now be making their appearance, and would 

 be much the better for being hoed a little on each 

 fide of the drill : The rifmg plants will thereby be 

 greatly encouraged, and the weeds, which might 

 otherwife overtop them, will be removed. They 

 may, however, (till require another dreffing dur- 

 ing the fummer, efpecially if the land abound in 

 thirties, particularly the welter and way thirties : 

 Thefe fhould be frequently removed in the firft 

 feafon after fowing ; but fuch hedges rarely re- 

 quire any further attention, in the way of clean- 

 ing, in after feafons.
