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 pound_n but_o now_o the_o tree_n be_v almost_o all_o dead_a it_o be_v one_o of_o the_o first_o orchard_n plant_v in_o kent_n mr._n cambden_n report_v that_o the_o earl_n of_o leicester_n gardener_n in_o queen_n elizabeth_n time_n first_o begin_v to_o plant_v flemish_a cherry_n in_o those_o part_n which_o in_o his_o time_n do_v spread_v into_o 16_o other_o parish_n and_o be_v at_o that_o time_n sell_v at_o great_a rate_n than_o now_o yet_o i_o know_v that_o 10_o or_o 15_o pound_n a_o acre_n have_v be_v give_v for_o cherry_n more_o for_o pear_n and_o apple_n 2_o there_o be_v a_o great_a deficiency_n in_o the_o order_n of_o orchard_n in_o that_o they_o be_v not_o well_o prune_v but_o full_a of_o moss_n misletoe_n and_o sucker_n and_o oftentimes_o the_o ground_n be_v pack_v too_o thick_a of_o tree_n for_o they_o shall_v stand_v at_o least_o 20_o foot_n asunder_o neither_o will_v ill_a husband_n bestow_v dung_v dig_v or_o any_o other_o cost_n on_o orchard_n which_o if_o they_o do_v may_v pay_v half_a their_o rent_n in_o some_o place_n one_o tell_v i_o for_o a_o secret_a a_o composition_n for_o to_o make_v tree_n bear_v much_o and_o excellent_a fruit_n which_o be_v this_o first_o in_o a_o old_a tree_n to_o split_v his_o root_n then_o to_o apply_v a_o compost_n make_v of_o pigeons-dung_n lees_n of_o wine_n or_o stale_a urine_n and_o a_o little_a brimstone_n to_o destroy_v the_o worm_n it_o have_v some_o probability_n of_o truth_n for_o by_o experience_n i_o know_v that_o a_o bushel_n of_o pigeons-dung_n have_v cause_v a_o tree_n to_o grow_v and_o bear_v which_o for_o divers_a year_n before_o stand_v at_o a_o stand_n but_o concern_v the_o split_a the_o root_n i_o know_v not_o what_o to_o say_v some_o old_a author_n affirm_v this_o aught_o to_o be_v do_v because_o that_o the_o root_n may_v as_o well_o be_v hidebound_a as_o other_o part_n of_o the_o tree_n and_o not_o able_a to_o attract_v his_o nourishment_n and_o when_o the_o root_n be_v split_v it_o will_v speedy_o send_v forth_o divers_a small_a fibrous_a root_n which_o be_v the_o principal_a attractor_n it_o be_v good_a that_o some_o will_v give_v we_o a_o account_n exact_a of_o this_o experiment_n but_o some_o will_v object_v against_o orchard_n that_o they_o spoil_v much_o ground_n and_o therefore_o aught_o to_o be_v plant_v only_o in_o hedge_n to_o this_o i_o answer_v 1_o that_o plumtree_n and_o damsin_n may_v very_o well_o be_v plant_v in_o hedge_n be_v ordinary_o thorny_a plant_n this_o be_v use_v very_o much_o in_o surrey_n and_o kent_n where_o the_o plum_n usual_o pay_v no_o small_a part_n of_o their_o rent_n yet_o i_o never_o see_v in_o these_o southern_a part_n of_o england_n any_o apple_n or_o pear_n thrive_v in_o a_o hedge_n unless_o a_o crab_n or_o a_o wilden_n or_o some_o sweeting_n of_o little_a worth_n how_o they_o thrive_v in_o hereford-shire_n and_o those_o place_n i_o know_v not_o 2_o the_o inconvenience_n of_o orchard_n plant_v at_o 20_o or_o 30_o foot_n distance_n be_v not_o worth_a speak_v of_o for_o this_o be_v the_o usual_a course_n in_o kent_n when_o they_o plant_v any_o ground_n they_o exact_o place_v they_o in_o rank_n and_o file_n and_o then_o plough_v their_o land_n many_o year_n and_o sow_v they_o with_o corn_n till_o the_o orchard_n begin_v to_o bear_v fruit_n then_o they_o lie_v they_o down_o for_o pasture_n which_o pasture_n be_v not_o considerable_o sour_a but_o have_v this_o advantage_n above_o other_o pasture_n 1_o that_o it_o be_v soon_o grow_v by_o 14_o day_n in_o the_o spring_n than_o the_o meadow_n and_o therefore_o very_o serviceable_a 2_o in_o parch_a summer_n here_o be_v plenty_n when_o other_o place_n have_v scarcity_n 3_o they_o be_v great_a shelter_n for_o cattle_n especial_o sheep_n who_o will_v in_o those_o place_n in_o great_a snow_n scrape_v up_o meat_n which_o in_o other_o place_n they_o can_v do_v and_o if_o the_o pasture_n be_v sour_a yet_o the_o loss_n be_v not_o great_a for_o it_o will_v be_v a_o convenient_a place_n for_o the_o hog_n to_o run_v in_o who_o must_v have_v a_o place_n for_o that_o purpose_n where_o there_o be_v no_o commons_o 4_o i_o say_v that_o the_o benefit_n be_v so_o many_o by_o orchard_n that_o you_o ought_v like_v a_o ungrateful_a man_n to_o thrust_v they_o up_o to_o the_o hedge_n for_o they_o afford_v curious_a walk_n for_o pleasure_n food_n for_o cattle_n both_o in_o the_o spring_n early_o and_o also_o in_o the_o parch_a summer_n and_o nip_a snowy_a winter_n they_o afford_v fuel_n for_o the_o fire_n and_o also_o shade_n from_o the_o heat_n physic_n for_o the_o sick_a refreshment_n for_o the_o sound_n plenty_n of_o food_n for_o man_n and_o that_o not_o of_o the_o worst_a and_o drink_v also_o even_o of_o the_o best_a and_o all_o this_o without_o much_o labour_n care_n or_o cost_n who_o therefore_o can_v just_o open_v his_o mouth_n against_o they_o 3_o deficiency_n be_v that_o we_o do_v not_o improve_v many_o excellent_a fruit_n which_o grow_v among_o we_o very_o well_o and_o that_o we_o have_v as_o yet_o many_o fruit_n from_o beyond_o sea_n which_o will_v grow_v very_o well_o with_o we_o i_o pass_v by_o the_o general_a and_o great_a ignorance_n that_o be_v among_o we_o of_o the_o variety_n of_o apple_n of_o which_o there_o be_v many_o sort_n which_o have_v some_o good_a and_o peculiar_a use_n most_o man_n content_v themselves_o with_o the_o knowledge_n of_o half_a a_o score_n of_o the_o best_a think_v the_o virtue_n of_o all_o the_o rest_n be_v comprehend_v in_o they_o as_o also_o of_o the_o variety_n of_o pear_n which_o be_v incredible_o many_o a_o friend_n of_o i_o near_o gravesend_n have_v late_o collect_v about_o 200_o species_n i_o know_v another_o in_o essex_n mr._n ward_n who_o have_v nigh_o the_o same_o number_n i_o hear_v of_o another_o in_o worcester-shire_n not_o inferior_a to_o these_o in_o northamton-shire_n i_o know_v one_o who_o have_v likewise_o collect_v very_o many_o so_o that_o i_o dare_v bold_o say_v there_o be_v no_o less_o in_o this_o island_n than_o 500_o species_n some_o commend_v for_o their_o early_a ripeness_n some_o for_o excellent_a taste_n some_o for_o beauty_n other_o for_o greatness_n some_o for_o great_a bearer_n other_o for_o good_a baker_n some_o for_o long_a laster_n other_o for_o to_o make_v perry_n etc._n etc._n but_o to_o our_o purpose_n i_o say_v many_o rare_a fruit_n be_v neglect_v to_o instance_n 1_o in_o the_o small-nut_n or_o filbird_n which_o be_v not_o much_o inferior_a to_o the_o best_a and_o sweet_a almond_n 2_o the_o great_a damsin_n or_o pruin-plum_n which_o grow_v well_o and_o bear_v full_a in_o england_n 3_o almond_n which_o grow_v well_o and_o bear_v good_a fruit_n as_o i_o have_v see_v divers_a bushel_n on_o one_o tree_n in_o my_o brother_n orchard_n 4_o walnut_n which_o be_v not_o a_o fruit_n to_o be_v despise_v 5_o vine_n and_o mulberry_n but_o of_o these_o present_o in_o another_o place_n i_o may_v likewise_o add_v currant_n raspese_n of_o which_o excellent_a drink_n may_v be_v make_v 6_o quince_n of_o the_o which_o i_o can_v but_o tell_v you_o that_o a_o gentleman_n at_o prichenel_n in_o essex_n who_o have_v a_o tree_n from_o beyond_o sea_n have_v the_o best_a in_o england_n and_o have_v make_v above_o 30_o pound_n of_o a_o small_a piece_n of_o ground_n plant_v with_o they_o as_o i_o have_v hear_v from_o his_o own_o wife_n mouth_n and_o therefore_o it_o be_v by_o reason_n of_o our_o ill_a husbandry_n that_o we_o have_v quince_n from_o flaunders_n small-nut_n from_o spain_n prune_n from_o france_n and_o also_o walnut_n and_o almond_n from_o italy_n and_o chestnut_n which_o i_o have_v almost_o forget_v from_o portugal_n and_o now_o i_o can_v but_o digress_v a_o little_a to_o tell_v you_o a_o strange_a and_o true_a story_n with_o my_o opinion_n of_o it_o in_o divers_a place_n of_o kent_n as_o at_z and_o about_o gravesend_n in_o the_o country_n and_o elsewhere_o very_o many_o of_o the_o prime_a timber_n of_o their_o old_a barn_n and_o house_n be_v of_o chestnut-wood_n and_o yet_o there_o be_v scarce_o a_o chestnut-tree_n within_o 20_o mile_n of_o that_o place_n and_o the_o people_n altogether_o ignorant_a of_o such_o tree_n this_o show_v that_o in_o former_a time_n those_o place_n do_v abound_v with_o such_o timber_n for_o people_n be_v not_o so_o foolish_a sure_o in_o former_a time_n to_o run_v up_o and_o down_o the_o world_n to_o procure_v such_o huge_a massey_a timber_n for_o barn_n and_o such_o building_n when_o as_o there_o be_v plenty_n of_o oak_n
