comes in fcr wheat. I sow the rye and tares broadcast, as it 

 should be thick on the ground. Fourth, I sow the rest of the 

 ground with swedes, turnips, mangel-wurzel, carrots, and pota 

 toes, for winter food ; the mangel-wurzel produces a great deal 

 of food for the cows, if the leaves are taken off properly.

 winter tares. I sow these in February. 



&quot; This will keep two cows and a heifer all the year round, if 

 they are stall-fed.
