OBSERVATIONS. 



It appears by the preceding accounts that 16,778 

 fecks of potatoes have been confumed by hogs in 

 the feven years* experiments, and confequently (the 

 fum total raifed being 20,924 facks) that 4146 

 facks have been fold and planted. Eftimating 

 thefe therefore, at an average of 4s. per fack, a 

 profit will remain (after deducing the above lofs, 

 viz. 185I. 1 23.) of 73I. los. 6d. The refult, 

 therefore, is, that potatoes are worth, as a food for 

 hogs, fomething more than 2S, 6d. per fack of 

 2401b. weight.
