down the one day, and carried to the barn- 

 yard the next. The wheat crop will not ex- 

 Jiauit the land, if followed with a green 

 crop. 



It is not the wheat crop that ruins the land> 

 fo much as the injudicious method of taking 

 two white crops in fucceflion ; then, indeed, 

 the foil will be very much exhaufted, and 

 will take many years, and much expence, to 

 bring it into the fame order that it was be- 

 fore. This is a fault which many who rec- 

 kon themfelves good fanners fall into. 



In anfwer to the third objection, By break- 

 ing up old g^afs, you obtain a treafure for 

 little expence ; which enables the farmer to 

 improve the mod barren parts of his farm, 

 affording him large fums of money to pur- 

 chafe manure, and to defray the expences for 

 men, cattle, &c. At the fame time, the large 

 quantities of ftraw, when managed properly 

 make large dunghills ; this raifes great crops 

 of corn in other fields. 



It is ?. very bad fcheme, when old grafs is 

 fet for three white crops, two of oats and one 

 of barley, allowing all the ftraw to be carried 

 off the farm. This exhaufts the farm very, 



much ;
