As for Liquors, they might make as good Malt-Drink, and as cheap there as any where else; and for Cyder I think it surpasses even _Herefordshire_ it self, for Plenty and Fairness of Fruit, the Trees thriving and producing wonderfully, yielding a strong and good tasted Cyder, when well made and managed, especially if kept in good Vaults. From Peaches is distilled an excellent Spirit in very great Plenty, very difficult to be distinguished (when well made) from _Citron Water_. This they call _Persico_, which with many other _Spirits_ might be made there to turn to a very good Account, and produced in great Quantities from their numerous large Orchards of Apples and Peaches. Hogs, horned Cattle, and Sheep thrive and encrease there mightily; and Salt and Casks being very cheap, vast Advantage might be made more than is, by raising of great Stocks, and salting up Beef and Pork for victualling of Ships, and supplying the _West-Indies_ and other Places with Provisions, which they might afford to do very cheap, did some of the additional Part of the Servants before-mentioned make it their Business to tend Flocks and Herds, and provide better and more Food for them in the Winter, than what they now usually have. As for the Advantage of Woollen Manufactures, that is so well known, that I shall say nothing in that Respect, only that there is in _Virginia_ as good Wool as the finest in _England_; and I doubt not but with good Management the Climate will produce as fine as any in _Spain_, since the Sheep in both Places are of _British_ Original; and in my Opinion it would be a great Advantage (instead of Detriment) to have fine Wool enough of our own to work up, without being beholden to _Spain_ for it; especially if we consider that it might either be sent Home to be wrought in _Britain_, or else we might send over Numbers of our superfluous Cloth-workers to make it up there into the same Sorts of Goods, as they make in _England_, which would be much the cheapest way; and then these Goods should be imported to the Clothiers _here_, who undoubtedly would have _Call_ enough for what they can make in _Virginia_ and at Home; for if they see Occasion they need not encrease the Quantity, but only make Use of Plantation Wool raised by _Britons_, instead of _Spanish Wool_; and the Decrease of our Exports to _Spain_ might sufficiently be balanced (if not upon Account of employing Numbers of our own People, yet) by many other Ways. Neither can I see any Harm in it, if the carrying on Woollen Manufactures in _Virginia_ by _English_ People that want Employment, the Quantity of Woollen Goods were thereby encreased; especially such as are for Home Consumption, and the Use of the Plantations; for then Rich and Poor would have their Cloths much cheaper; and if the Draper gained less by his Countrymen, it might be contrived that he should gain more by Strangers abroad in other Parts of the World.
