98 Expenccs and Profits of a Dairy. 



elude my dairy cattle from them, of course they are ap- 

 plied to my horses, sheep and feeding cattle : the con- 

 sumption of pasture by these I believe generally equals 

 that of my dairy stock, therefore I suppose it a just 

 inference, that one hundred and twenty acres (clear of 

 garlick) would support my dairy stock, under my pre- 

 sent mode of management, but as my arrangements of 

 business are much blended, I find it difficult to ascertain 

 with precision the quantity of land appropriated to my 

 dairy cattle, for the part devoted to the dairy stock, is 

 also allotted to cultivation, and divided between pas- 

 ture, mowable, and ploughed land. I would have the 

 above considered rather as an opinion, than an exact 

 statement. If from it, you can collect such hiformation 

 as may in any- wise answer your purpose, I shall feel 

 fully gratified ; ever remaining. 



Yours &c.
