OF THE COUNTY OF TYRONE. 13 



flax, but not abundant. Though the foil about Killy- 

 bricfc and Favoroyal is, in general, cold, wet, and (hal- 

 low, yet timber trees, in general, fucceed very well. 

 Some patches of barley about Aughnacloy; but this 

 grain is not much favoared by the foil of this neigh- 

 bourhood. 



From Aughnacloy to Callidon, diftance about fix 

 miles ; all gentle fwells and fertile vales ; abundant 

 crops of hay, oats, barley, potatoes, flax, and fome 

 rye j foil inclining to red, and, in many parts, abounding 

 with limeftone and limeftone-gravel ; fome marie to be 

 met with in the fertile vales. 



From Callidon to Benburb, diftance about fix miles 

 along the Blackwater, and on to Blackwater town, 

 which lies principally in the county of Armagh. In 

 moft part of thofe diftrifts the foils are fertile and well 

 calculated to every kind of grain peculiar to the coun* 

 ty, and, perhaps, to the kingdom, if judicioufly ma- 

 naged. The exertions of Do&or Richardfon, of Clon- 

 feckle, near Blackwater-town, in the line of farming, 

 particularly on green crops, fully fhew what the fertile 

 foils of the major part of the barony of Dungannon 

 are capable of producing. 



From Blackwater-town to the Moy, Dungannon, 

 &c. is beautiful and fertile, almoft beyond defcription. 

 Every kind of crop fucceeds well, when the weather is 

 at all favourable, as the fault of a bad crop can never 

 be imputed to the foil ; I wifh the fame obfervatkm 

 would hold good with refpeft to good management.
