TABLES 



FOB 



MANURING LAND. 



EXPLANATION OF THE FIRST TABLE. 



THE left-hand column shows the distance of the heaps 

 of manure in yards, the figures at the top the number of 

 heaps in a load, and under them the number of loads 

 required for an acre for aay given distance of the heaps : 

 thus, if heaps of clay are set 3| yards asunder, and 5 

 heaps made of a load, then under five in the table, and 

 opposite 3| yards in the width, you will find 80, which 

 shows the number of loads required for an acre. Again, 

 if the heaps of dung are 7 yards distant from each other, 

 and 8 heaps made of a load, the table shows that 

 loads are required to manure an acre.
