Labour. 



The fum I have charged under this head 

 does not include the affiftance he is likewife 

 to hire at wheat fowing, which will 

 amount to a few {hillings more : the whole 

 will form a fum very fmall in the eyes of 

 many; I mould, therefore, here explain 

 how one man may cultivate 36 arable acres 

 with fo little afliftance. Let us take every 

 month in the year from the conclufion of 

 harveft. 



Oclober. 9 Acres of wheat ploughed 

 and fowed, (the feeds-man hired), 

 and water-furrowed : This may be 

 called days of work, - 15 



9 Acres of laft year's wheat

 November. Thrafhing * 13 qrs. of 



wheat, 26 



* Here I make the wheat yield 2-^qrs. per acre, and yet 

 charge it only 4/./*racre; but fomething mufl be al- 

 lowed for the fcreenings which the farmer ufes in his 

 family (and which -are thraihed like the reft) and alfo on 

 account of all his corn being fold at home, or at leafl to a 

 neighbour; and alfo to the general attention of not 

 cramping him in this Calendar, 'with charging lefs work 

 than the reality.
