Remarks on the preceding Letter and tables , in

 of crops contained in the firft line of the table, 

 was given me by the Rev. Mr. Howman, of Bra-

 cumftances and feafons will not permit the inva- 

 riable execution of the plan. Where lands are 

 not good enough, and not infected with the worm, 

 which kills the red clover, the farmer contents

 Turnips, barley, clover, peafe, wheat; or, inftead 

 of the two latter, 



Wheat, I Qr f Beans, | Qr J Wheat, 

 Barley, \ Wheat, | [Oats. 



This plan is therefore given to the Society, not 

 as a courfe of husbandry, which has been invari- 

 ably
