TO THE CONDUCTOR OF THE FARMER*S MAGAZINE. 



/I Statement of E^pences attend'mg the Culture of Corn in 1790 ami 

 l'6o ^y prefented to the Corvmit/ee of the Houfe of Commons by the Pro- 

 prietors a»d farmers of NoffolL With fonts Defultory Oifruaiions 

 thereupon. 



Sir, 



A PETiTiOH was lately prefented to Parliament from this coun- 

 ty, complaining of the hardlhips fuftained by agriciilturifts from im- 

 politic com laws and the heavy duty upon malt ; and I fend you a 

 {latement, drawn up by an intelligent agriculturift, in fupport of the 

 petition which was laid before t-hofe in power, and received much at- 

 tention. Perhaps fome parts of the ftatement may be confidered as 

 objeftionable, becaufe the value of crops during a whole rotation is not 

 precifely marked down j but whatever weight may be attached to this 

 Circumftance, I venture to afTure you, "that the ftatement is cor- 

 ^ett, fo far as refpefls the value of labour at the periods mentioned* 

 therefore entitled to the ferious confideration of evt- ry agricuitunil.
