garden, where there were few grains, and at one 

 foot in rows, and at three feet diftancc, appeared 

 extremely bad ; thofe with moft grains, and the 

 holes neareft, were much the belt. That in the 

 field with one grain, and with few grains per hole, 

 was very bad. 



Upon examining them afterwards, when the 

 wheat with moft grains was about three feet high, 

 the wheat with one and two grains was fo bad, that 

 it did not appear probable it would produce any 

 thing like a crop. The barley was the fame. 



That in the field with one grain, and with few 

 grains per hole, was bad j and as there were twelve 

 rows, they increafed in colour and length, as the 

 number of grains. The firft with one grain the' 

 worft; and thofe with fourteen and fifteen grains by 

 much the beft. But afterwards, thofe with few 

 grains improved furprifingly, and were very good. 



When in the ear, the wheat in the garden with 

 few grains had fevcral blanks in the rows where 

 there were no plants, and when the ears were num- 

 bered, gave the quantity marked in the table of the 

 barley in the garden; only thofe three rows which 

 were at one foot in the rows could be reckoned, 

 the others being fo lodged, they could not be 



numbered
