PLASHING OF HEDGES, is an operation thought by somepersons to promote the growth and continuance of old hedges ;but whether the fact be so or not will admit of some dispute. Itis thus performed : The old stubs must be cut off, &c. withintwo or three indies of the ground ; and the best and longest of themiddle-sized shoots must be left to lay down. Some of thestrongest of these must also be left to answer the purpose of stakes.These are to he cut off to the height at which the hedge is intend-ed to he left; and they are to stand at ten feet distance one fromanother: when there are not proper shoots for these at the duedistances, their places must be supplied with common stakes ofdead wood. The hedge is to he first thinned, by. cutting away all.but those shoots which'are intended to he used either as stakes, orthe other work of the plashing: the ditch is to be cleaned outwith the spade; and it must be now dug as at first, with slopingsides each way ; and when there is any cavity on the bank on-which the hedge grows, or the earth has been washed away from(he roots of the shrubs, it is to be made good by facing it, as theyexpress it, with the mould dug from the upper part of the ditch :all the rest of the earth dug out of the ditch is to be laid upon the-top of the bank: and the owner should look carefully into it thatthis be done ; for the workmen are apt to throw as much as theycan upon the face of the hank; which, being thus overloaded, issoon washed off into the ditch again, and a very great part of thework undone; whereas what is laid on the top of the bank al-
