every hole be left the space of one foot and prick therein branches a little scraped and put the stick into a ditch so that the branches stand upright one part of the stick remaining over the earth and with in a year after take it out of the ditch and cut the stick asunder so find you the branches full of roots and put every one into a hole in the ground and 't is fit the holes were stopped with lome or with wax Some do take in March a fresh Beech tree which is of a mans thicknesse and pierce him overthwart with maine and great holes and small holes till unto the lowermost barke or quite through then take sprouts or boughes which be as big and small that they may fit into the holes and when you will put them into the Beech stump you must scrape the uppermost barke off untill the green and no further then the bough must remain into the Beech the sprouts must stand a foot or somwhat lesse asunder then keep your Beech stumps with the sprouts in a fresh ground and skant a foot deep you must first maime the sprouts that they may not flourish then the next March ensuing dig it out with the sprouts and cut it asunder with a saw and every block which is cut off with its branch you must set in a fresh ground and so they will bring forth the fruit the same yeare The sixth Way This way teaches how to graffe that they may bring forth fruit the first yeare which do as follows Pare an old stumpe of what kinde soever it be the uppermost bark till to the lower green barke a span long or somewhat lesse which do in Harvest in the wane of the Moone and anoint it with Oxe dung and earth and tye it with bark and after in March when trees are transposed from one place to another then cut the same branch from the tree and put it into the ground and it wil bring fruit the same yeer I have seen that one hath prickt sticks on Alballow eve in the earth and hath pulled them out again upon Christmas eve and put boughes in the holes and they have prospered and come out The seventh Pierce the top of a stump which is not over small and draw a bark through it and maime it with a knife as far as it standeth on the top in eight days after poure water upon it that the top of the stump may close This must be done in harvest and in the March following cut it off from the tree and bruise the top and put it with the same earth in other ground The eighth Way Will you graffe a tree that the fruit be without stones Take a sprout and graff it into a great stump with the thicker and lower part of the sprout then take the upper or thinner end of the sprout and cut it also fit to be graffed and turne it downeward and graffe it into the said stump and when the sprout of both sides prospereth cut it in the midst asunder so that which is grown right upward with the tree the fruit of it hath stones but that which was the top of the sprout that groweth contrary brings forth fruit without stones And if so be the turned sprout prosper you must break off the other to the end that the turned sprour doe not perish which you may try after this sort for oftentimes it commeth and prospereth and many times it is perished and spoiled How Cherries are to be graffed that they may come without stones WIll you make that Cherries grow without stones pare a little Cherry tree at one year old at the stump and cleave it asunder from the top to the root which do in May and make an Iron fit to draw the heart or marow from both sides of the tree then tye it fast together and anoint it with Ox dung or lome and within a yeare after when it is growne and healed goe to another little tree which is of the same kind and which hath not yet brought fruit and graffe that same on the little tree so shall that same tree bring his fruit without stones How a Vine is to be planted upon a Cherry tree PLant a Vine tree next unto a Cherry tree and when it groweth high then pierce a hole into the Cherry tree right above it that the hole be no bigger than the Vine is thick and pare the upper bark of the Vine branch till unto the green so farre as it must go through the tree and look well to it that the branch of the Vine be not bruised and wel anointed You must not suffer any sprouts to come out of the Vine from the ground up but unto the tree only that which commeth out of the other side let that same grow and bring fruit Then the next March following if the Vine prosper and grow fast into the tree then cut the Vine from the tree off and anoint the place with diligence and it will bring fruit How a grape of a Vine may be brought into a glasse WIll you make that a grape grow into a narrow glasse take the glasse before the grape cast her bloud or while she is little and put her into the glasse and shee will ripen in the glasse To graffe Medlers on a Peare tree IF you graffe the branch of a Medler upon a Peare tree the Medlers will be sweet and durable so that you may keep them longer than otherwise How apples or other fruit may be made red If you will graft upon a wild stump put the sprouts in Pikes bloud and then graft them and the fruit will be red Otherwise Take an apple branch and graft it upon an alder stump and the apples will be red Likewise if you graft them upon cherry trees Of the Quince tree THe Quince tree commeth not of any grafting but you must plucke him out by the roots and plant him againe into a good ground or earth Otherwise The Quince tree requireth a dry and sweet ground and he prospereth therein How to make that Quinces become great TAke a branch of a Quince tree when it hath cast his bloud where a Quince groweth at and put it into a pot and set it into the ground and let the Quince grow in it and it will be very great And if you will shew some cunning therewith cause to be made a pot which hath a mans face in the bottome of it or any other picture whatsoever and when the quinces have blossomed then bow the branch and put the Quince into the pot and she will grow very big in the shape of a man which may also be done in Pompons Mellons Cucumbers and other earthly fruites The conclusion of graffing OVT of all the forewritten causes gentle reader is evidently shewne that although every planting or grafting be better from like
