 " circle above-mentioned, wheat feed-time

To do juftice to dibbled wheat, it ought 

 to be dibbled in ftraight lines, fo as the hoe 

 may pafs between the rows. A hoe made of 

 a triangular form, and fomewhat rifing in 

 the middle, would not only cut the weeds or 

 grafs, but, at the fame time, throw the earth 

 to the roots of the wheat, which would make 

 it fpread off the root. 



Laying three chalders of hot powdered 

 lime on each acre, with the dung, would 

 help to rot the grafs, and make the foil free 

 and tender ; but dung alone encourages the 



growth
