that time of the year, in many forts of flocks and trees that 
are very thriving, flay till the ground be well moiflened, 
and then your flocks will rife with lefs labour and better 
roots, not being fo apt to break 5 or you may flay till the 
ftp be a little morehardned: but if not, I know no incon¬ 
venience in it, being you are to cut off the greatefl part of 
your flock. You may know your flocks or trees have done 
growing for that feafon, if your flock appear blunt, or on¬ 
ly having a bud at the top, but on the contrary, if there 
be very fmall and frefh Leaves, then the tree is yet growing. 
In taking the head of the feafon to plant your Trees, they 
will have taken new root, before the ground be much chil¬ 
led and cooled with wet and cold weather, and thereby 
will take root the fooner, and fo the trees will be the bet¬ 
ter prepared to fhoot with the firfl, which is oft-times as 
good as a year laved, they being Tree from mifoarriage in 
cafe of a very dry fpring, which many times deflroys fuch 
trees as are late planted. Take notice that Snow is as great 
an enemy to Trees as any thing (in cafe it lye long on the 
roots when they are taken up.) Alfo drying Winds are ve¬ 
ry bad.
