POMONA: Or, 
PEACH Stocks are generally large enough to graft the firft Year 
after their Kernels are fet ; but Cherry Stocks, Plumb Stocks, ¢c. not 
till the third Year, and ineiind not till the fourth. 
THE next Spring after the Buds have made their Shoots, thofe 
Parts of the Stocks which were left above the Buds, fhould be cut 
away clofe to the Bud, and cover'd with a Salve made of Mutton- 
fuet, Bees-wax, and Rofin, as I fhall dire in my Chapter on 
Pruning the Branches of Fruit-Trees, to preferve the Stock from the 
Injuries of Wet, which is oftentimes deftructive to them.
