To quickly assess the difficulty of the text, read a short excerpt:
It is proposed to try to prevent the older plantations of pines and cypress from further smothering the individual trees of which they are composed, and in this way to prevent the further loss of lower limbs, and to promote a more vigorous growth of the best trees. To this end it is proposed to cut out the weaker trees, particularly within the groups, to clean out the dead and dying foliage and branches, to clear away trees which, by their nature, are out of place in the fore- grounds of groups..., and thus to let light and air in to the indi- vidual and important trees. Having cleared away the rubbish and superfluous trees, it isjproposed in suitable cases to try to rehabilitate the groups as masses of verdure springing from the ground, by planting at proper distances from them small groups of lower growing shrubs and plants, as was done in 1875 and 1876, in the case of some groups near the park lodge, and which now present a comparatively attractive appearance. 15 It is not intended to cut out any trees or foliage which now seem to he necessary for protection from the driving winds, except at limited localities, where the condition of the planta- tions is so abominably bad, and hastening to early decay and uselessness, that a very small amount of foresight prompts ac- tion to save some part of the group, and to reform it with younger plants at the earliest time practicable.
