then tread out one Bed or more,according as the quantity of 
(tones or kernels you intend to fow require, either of the 
(tampings or prefiings of Crabs, where Verjuice is made, or 
of Apples or Pears, where Cyder or Perry is made, or the 
Kernels of Apples or Pears, laved from Fruit otherwifo: but 
for my part, I do like the Stocks of Crabs and wild Peat| 
better for a Nurfory, and to graft on, than thole that are
