 this will not keep good long out of the ground. 

 Hawthorns of all forts, Yewberries, and Hips 

 of Rofes, fliould now be fown, obferving to

 Plums: thefe feeds, fown at this feafon, will 

 often come up the fucceeding fpring -, whereas 

 thofe fown in the fpring, if they do grow, will 

 not come up until the fpring following ; but

 a foot deep, and lay the Haws, Hips, and Holly- 

 berries therein, covering them over with earth 

 pretty thick, letting them remain one year; 

 then they take them out, and fow them in beds 

 the following Oftober, and the plants will 

 come up the fpring after.
