‘TShall always be ready to anfwer any queries you 
may wifh to refer tome. To the beft of my 
recollection, I never grew more than feven quarters 
of early mazagan beans per acre, and of the tick 
beans I have had eleven quarters per acre. The 
mazagan fell for 3s. or 4s. per quarter more than the 
tick; but this alone would not induce me to cultivate 
them. I have too objects of more importance, 
which will explain my reafon for always drilling 
fome part of my bean lands with the mazagan bean: 
they are fit for harvefting three weeks before the 
tick beans, and give me more time to prepare the 
land for wheat. I always arrange my pea and beaa

time to harveft the crops, and till the lands, without 
much additional force. This is my rotation :—early
