for there is not such fertility and easefull growth, as within: and
there also they are more subiect to, and can abide the blasts of
_AEolus_. The cherries and plummes being ripe in the hot time of Summer,
and the rest standing longer, are not so soone shaken as your better
fruit: neither if they suffer losse, is your losse so great. Besides
that, your fences and ditches will deuoure some of your fruit growing in
or neere your hedges. And seeing the continuance of all these (except
Nuts) is small, the care of them ought to be the lesse. And make no
doubt but the fences of a large Orchard will containe a sufficient
number of such kind of Fruit trees in the whole compasse. It is not
material, but at your pleasure, in the said fences, you may either
intermingle your seueral kinds of fruit-trees, or set euery kind by
himselfe, which order doth very well become your better and greater
fruit. Let therefore your Apples, Peares, and Quinches, possesse all the
soile of your Orchard, vnlesse you be especially affected to some of
your other kinds: and of them let your greatest trees of growth stand
furthest from Sunne, and your Quinches at the South side or end, and
your Apples in the middle, so shall none be any hinderance to his
fellowes. The Warden-tree, and Winter-Peare will challenge the
preheminence for stature. Of your Apple-trees you shall finde difference
in growth. A good Pippin will grow large, and a Costard-tree: stead them
on the North side of your other Apples, thus being placed, the least
will giue Sun to the rest, and the greatest will shroud their fellowes.
The fences and out-trees will guard all.

_Of Grafting._

{SN: Of Grauing or Caruing.}
{SN: Grafting What.}
{SN: A Graffe.}
Now are we come to the most curious point of our faculty: curious in
conceit, but indeede as plaine and easie as the rest, when it is
plainely shewne, which we commonly call _Graffing_, or (after some)
_Grafting_. I cannot _Etymologize_, nor shew the originall of the Word,
except it come of _Grauing_ and _Caruing_. But the thing or matter is:
The reforming of the fruite of one tree with the fruit of another, by an
artificiall transplacing, or transposing of a twigge, bud or leafe,
(commonly called a _Graft_) taken from one tree of the same, or some
other kind, and placed or put to, or into another tree in one time and
manner.
