better intermixed with the foil, which an-* 

 fwers better for the grafs feeds, than when 

 the dung is laid on for the barley. Likewifc 

 not having to dung for the barley, you can 

 be more certain of embracing a good feafon 

 of fowing whenever it offers, whether early 

 or late. Some years the time being confum- 

 ed in driving out dung for the barley, the 

 proper feafon of fowing is loft, which both 

 hurts the barley crop, and grafs feeds fown. 



Thefe crops, when dunged and properly 

 dreft, the feafon being favourable, are often 

 of more value than a wheat crop. I have 

 known fixteen tolls of clean beans upon each 

 acre,, by following the above method. I had 

 upon an average, fifty bolls of potatoes upon 

 each acre, every boll weighing forty ftone 

 Dutch weight, which is above fix hundred 

 weight Englifli ; and I have raifed ibme years 

 eighty bolls. 



The fifth year, I would propofe barley and 

 grafs feeds, as the foil, by the above method 

 of cropping is both well pulverifed, and rich 

 with lime and dung. The ba-rley crop, if 

 the feafon is favourable may be expedlei to 

 be very great, as neither the lime or dung is 

 exhaufted ; being only the third year fince
