 is, that the people of the country followed his 

 example. 



Of this garden, a part fliould be fowii with maize, 

 which would enable him to fatten his pigs and 

 poultry ', another pare with Alface radiflies, either 

 the fpring fort, or thofe which are larger ; a good 

 proportion with potatoes; the reft with the yellow 

 carrots, wholefome pulfe, light and favory herbs, 

 which are not too tender, but which require as 

 litde care as potatoes and cabbages, and which 

 with very litde culture will yield more fine plants 

 than will be fufficient for his confumption. The 

 overplus and refufe of his pulfe will furnifh very 

 excellent food for his flieep and cows. 



Carrots are very ufeful for horfes, and the rc^^ 



fufe of the cabbages may be ufed as an exellent 



manures and I doubt not but he would live much 



A a 2 better.
