To quickly assess the difficulty of the text, read a short excerpt:
323 if the plants are large, a second watering is sometimes necessary ; but in ordinary-sized plants, one watering is quite sufficient ; and after remaining twenty-four hours, more or less, according to the nature of the soil, the earth about the stem, and over the roots, should be trodden as firm as pos- sible ; and, after treading, should be dressed with a rake. Where this is practised, and the planting done in winter, in cloudy weather, there is scarcely a chance of any dry weather afterward...s injuring them ; but if this method, or something similar, is not practised^ there will be a great risk of failure every year, in planting evergreens, particularly when they are planted at the usual times recommended ; that is, in spring or autunm." Mr. McNab recommends " always to water evergreens when planted, whe- ther the work be done in wet weather, dull weather, or dry ; or whether the situation in which they are planted is wet or dry, sheltered or exposed ; because the watering, in the manner recommended^ fills up the holes that may be in the earth about the roots, and consolidates the whole mass much better than treading could do." In tenacious soils, treading is positively injurious ; and in no case should the soil be rendered more compact than it is found to be in ground that has been a few weeks trenched.
