course_n of_o thing_n you_o will_v find_v that_o husbandry_n be_v the_o end_n which_o man_n of_o all_o estate_n in_o the_o world_n do_v point_n at_o for_o to_o what_o purpose_n do_v soldier_n

there_o be_v care_n &_o diligence_n requisite_a in_o husbandry_n as_o there_o be_v in_o all_o the_o action_n of_o the_o world_n and_o therefore_o as_o a_o captain_n have_v a_o lieutenant_n to_o

enrich_v the_o land_n i_o have_v see_v it_o sow_v in_o divers_a place_n here_o in_o england_n especial_o in_o cobham-park_n in_o kent_n about_z 4_o mile_n from_o gravesend_n where_o it_o have_v thrive_v extraordinary_a well_o upon_o dry_a chalky_a bank_n where_o nothing_o else_o will_v grow_v and_o indeed_o such_o dry_a barren_a land_n be_v most_o proper_a for_o it_o as_o moist_a rich_a land_n for_o the_o great_a trefoil_n or_o great_a glover-grasse_n although_o it_o will_v grow_v indifferent_o well_o on_o all_o land_n and_o when_o the_o other_o grass_n and_o plant_n be_v destroy_v by_o the_o parch_a heat_n of_o the_o sun_n because_o their_o root_n be_v small_a and_o shallow_a this_o flourish_v very_o much_o have_v very_o great_a root_n and_o deep_a in_o the_o ground_n and_o therefore_o not_o easy_o to_o be_v exsiccate_v
as_o we_o have_v observe_v ononis_n or_o restharrow_n common_o to_o do_v on_o dry_a land_n but_o if_o you_o sow_v this_o on_o wet_a land_n the_o water_n soon_o corrupt_v the_o root_n of_o it_o this_o plant_n without_o question_n will_v much_o improve_v many_o of_o our_o barren_a land_n so_o that_o they_o may_v be_v mow_v every_o year_n once_o at_o least_o seven_o year_n together_o and_o yield_v excellent_a fodder_n for_o cattle_n if_o so_o be_v that_o it_o be_v right_o manage_v otherwise_o it_o come_v to_o nothing_o as_o i_o have_v see_v by_o experience_n i_o therefore_o council_n those_o who_o sow_v this_o or_o the_o great_a trefoil_n or_o clovergrasse_n or_o any_o other_o sort_n of_o grass_n that_o they_o observe_v these_o rule_n 1_o that_o they_o do_v make_v there_o ground_n fine_a and_o kill_v all_o sort_n of_o other_o grass_n and_o plant_n otherwise_o they_o be_v native_a english_a will_n by_o no_o mean_n give_v way_n to_o the_o french_a one_o especial_o in_o this_o moist_a climate_n and_o therefore_o they_o be_v to_o be_v blame_v who_o with_o one_o plough_v sow_n this_o or_o other_o seed_n for_o the_o grass_n present_o grow_v up_o and_o choke_v they_o and_o so_o by_o their_o negligence_n and_o ill_a husbandry_n discourage_v themselves_o and_o other_o 2_o let_v they_o not_o be_v too_o spare_v of_o their_o seed_n for_o the_o more_o they_o sow_v the_o close_o and_o thick_a they_o will_v grow_v and_o present_o full_o stock_n the_o ground_n that_o nothing_o else_o can_v grow_v and_o further_o the_o seed_n which_o come_v from_o beyond_o the_o sea_n be_v oftentimes_o old_a and_o much_o decay_v and_o therefore_o the_o more_o seed_n be_v require_v 3_o not_o to_o expect_v above_o 7._o year_n profit_n by_o it_o for_o in_o that_o time_n it_o will_v decay_v and_o the_o natural_a grass_n will_v prevail_v over_o it_o for_o every_o plant_n have_v his_o period_n some_o in_o one_o year_n some_o in_o 2._o other_o in_o 3._o as_o the_o common_a thistle_n and_o therefore_o after_o 7._o year_n let_v they_o either_o plough_v the_o land_n up_o and_o sow_v it_o with_o that_o same_o seed_n again_o or_o with_o other_o grain_n as_o they_o do_v in_o france_n 4_o let_v not_o sheep_n or_o other_o cattle_n bite_v they_o the_o first_o year_n that_o they_o may_v be_v well_o root_v for_o these_o grass_n be_v far_o sweet_a than_o the_o ordinary_a grass_n and_o cattle_n will_v eat_v they_o down_o leave_v the_o other_o and_o consequent_o discourage_v their_o growth_n 5_o the_o best_a way_n if_o man_n will_v be_v at_o the_o charge_n be_v to_o make_v their_o ground_n very_o fine_a as_o they_o do_v when_o they_o be_v to_o sow_v barley_n and_o harow_n it_o even_o and_o then_o to_o how_o these_o seed_n in_o alone_a without_o any_o other_o grain_n as_o the_o gardiner_n do_v pease_n yet_o not_o at_o so_o great_a a_o distance_n but_o let_v they_o make_v the_o range_v about_o a_o foot_n breadth_n one_o from_o another_o and_o they_o shall_v see_v their_o grass_n flourish_v as_o if_o they_o be_v green_a pease_n especial_o if_o they_o draw_v the_o how_o through_o they_o once_o or_o twice_o that_o summer_n to_o destroy_v all_o the_o weed_n and_o grass_n and_o if_o they_o do_v thus_o the_o great_a clover_n and_o other_o seed_n may_v be_v mow_v even_o twice_o the_o first_o year_n as_o i_o have_v experiment_v in_o divers_a small_a plot_n of_o ground_n there_o be_v at_o paris_n likewise_o another_o sort_n of_o fodder_n which_o they_o call_v la_fw-fr lucern_n which_o be_v not_o inferior_a but_o rather_o prefer_v before_o this_o saint_n foin_n for_o

i_o yet_o i_o have_v hear_v it_o by_o so_o many_o that_o i_o believe_v it_o to_o be_v true_a namely_o that_o a_o orchard_n of_o 30_o acre_n of_o cherry_n produce_v in_o one_o year_n above_o a_o 1000_o

they_o leave_v it_o as_o be_v the_o custom_n in_o flaunders_n i_o have_v likewise_o observe_v some_o deficiency_n in_o wood_n wood_n which_o i_o shall_v brief_o declare_v with_o the_o best_a way_n to_o remedy_n the_o same_o 1_o it_o be_v a_o great_a fault_n that_o general_o through_o the_o island_n the_o wood_n be_v destroy_v so_o that_o we_o be_v in_o many_o place_n very_o much_o necessitate_v both_o for_o fuel_n &_o also_o for_o timber_n for_o building_n and_o other_o use_n so_o that_o if_o we_o have_v not_o coal_n from_o newcastle_n and_o board_n from_o norwey_n plough-stave_n and_o pipe-stave_n from_o prussia_n we_o shall_v be_v bring_v to_o great_a extremity_n and_o many_o mechanickes_n will_v be_v necessitate_v to_o leave_v their_o calling_n 2_o deficiency_n be_v that_o our_o wood_n be_v not_o order_v as_o they_o shall_v be_v but_o though_o wood_n be_v especial_o preserve_v for_o timber_n for_o building_n and_o ship_n yet_o at_o this_o time_n it_o be_v very_o rare_a to_o see_v a_o good_a timber-tree_n in_o a_o wood._n 3_o that_o many_o of_o our_o wood_n be_v very_o thin_a and_o not_o replenish_v with_o such_o sort_n of_o wood_n as_o be_v convenient_a for_o the_o place_n 4_o that_o we_o sell_v continual_o and_o never_o plant_v or_o take_v care_n for_o posterity_n these_o deficiency_n may_v be_v thus_o remedy_v 1_o to_o put_v in_o execution_n the_o statute_n against_o grub_v of_o wood_n which_o be_v sufficient_o severe_a it_o be_v well_o know_v we_o have_v good_a law_n but_o it_o be_v better_o know_v they_o be_v not_o execute_v in_o the_o wild_a of_o kent_n and_o sussex_n which_o lie_v far_o from_o the_o river_n and_o sea_n and_o former_o have_v be_v nothing_o but_o wood_n liberty_n be_v grant_v for_o man_n to_o grub_v what_o they_o please_v for_o they_o can_v want_v fire_v for_o themselves_o and_o they_o be_v so_o seat_v that_o neither_o firewood_n nor_o timber_n can_v be_v transport_v elsewhere_o i_o know_v a_o gentleman_n who_o proffer_v their_o good_a oak-timber_n at_o 6_o s_z 8_o d_o per_fw-mi tun_n and_o the_o land_n in_o those_o part_n in_o general_n be_v very_o good_a about_o tunbridge_n there_o be_v land_n which_o former_o be_v wood_n be_v now_o let_v for_o 30_o s_o per_fw-la be_v so_o that_o to_o keep_v such_o land_n for_o wood_n will_v be_v both_o loss_n to_o the_o owner_n and_o to_o the_o island_n but_o in_o other_o part_n of_o the_o island_n it_o be_v otherwise_o and_o man_n be_v much_o to_o be_v blame_v for_o destroy_v both_o timber_n and_o fuel_n i_o have_v see_v at_o shooters-hill_n near_o london_n some_o wood_n stub_a up_o which_o be_v good_a ground_n for_o wood_n but_o now_o be_v nothing_o but_o furze_n which_o be_v a_o great_a loss_n both_o to_o the_o owner_n and_o to_o the_o country_n for_o the_o land_n be_v make_v worse_o than_o it_o be_v former_o i_o conceive_v there_o be_v land_n which_o be_v as_o natural_o ordain_v for_o wood_n viz._n mountainous_a craggy_a uneven_a land_n as_o small_a hill_n for_o the_o vine_n and_o olive_n plain_a land_n for_o corn_n and_o low_o moist_a land_n for_o pasture_n which_o land_n if_o they_o be_v stub_a do_v much_o prejudice_n the_o commonwealth_n 2_o that_o all_o wood_n shall_v have_v such_o a_o number_n of_o timber-tree_n per_fw-la acre_n according_a to_o the_o statute_n there_o be_v a_o good_a law_n for_o that_o purpose_n but_o man_n delude_v both_o themselves_o and_o the_o law_n that_o they_o every_o fell_v cut_v down_o the_o stander_n which_o they_o leave_v the_o foll_n before_o lest_o perchance_o they_o shall_v grow_v to_o be_v timber_n and_o leave_v 12_o small_a stander_n that_o they_o may_v seem_v to_o fulfil_v in_o some_o measure_n the_o statute_n but_o it_o be_v a_o mere_a fallacy_n and_o cause_v the_o statute_n to_o fail_v of_o its_o principal_a end_n which_o be_v to_o preserve_v timber_n 3_o the_o best_a remedy_n against_o thinness_n of_o wood_n be_v to_o plash_n they_o and_o spread_v they_o abroad_o and_o cover_v they_o partly_o in_o the_o ground_n as_o every_o countryman_n can_v direct_v by_o this_o mean_v the_o wood_n will_v soon_o grow_v rough_a and_o thick_a it_o be_v good_a husbandry_n likewise_o to_o fill_v your_o wood_n with_o swift_a grower_n as_o ash_n sallow_a willow_n asp_n which_o be_v also_o good_a for_o hop-pole_n hoop_n sycamore_n be_v also_o a_o swift_a grower_n in_o flaunders_n they_o have_v

sow_v in_o biscay_n there_o be_v a_o law_n if_o that_o any_o cut_v down_o a_o timber-tree_n he_o must_v plant_v three_o for_o it_o which_o law_n be_v put_v into_o execution_n with_o severity_n

according_a he_o do_v but_o always_o in_o such_o place_n that_o they_o may_v not_o grow_v in_o france_n near_o to_o the_o border_n of_o spain_n they_o sow_v ashkey_n which_o when_o they_o grow_v to_o
