crop of turnips, allowed to be the beft ‘in ‘the couns 
try, except my adjoining field, and one tilled in the 
fame method, and with equal fuccefs by my neigh- 
bour Mr. Buppen. The advantage of this fyftem

land is mucked, are abfolutely on a hot bed, and 
grow fo rapidly, that they are in little or no danger 
from the depredations of the fly. The intervals ad- 
‘mit fan and air without lofs’of land, as the whole 
of the pulverized foil is thrown to the part of thé 
land occupied by the plants. The land is better 
tilled by the ufe of the horfe-hoe and common 
plough, than it can‘poffibly be by hand-hoeing; and - 
the expence of hand-hoeing is reduced’ one half, by 
having merely to hoé the rows of turnips, and to” 
fingle the plants. Thus a more complete fallow is: 
‘made, and a much heavier crop obtained, at about 
one quarter of the expence of ploughing four times,

not have any of your correfpondents expect fuccefs 
in the turnip culture, without obtaining the moft

good, wheat foil, was fine as duft; and I can, from’ 
experience, recommend Mr. Coox.e’s in{truments, as 
the only implements by which this complete pulveri- 
zation can be obtained without extra expence. No
