N5- 



Variation the fourth. 



Fifty-three acres all arable ; the foil all 

 light) or fart light and partjlijf. 



This farm I fuppofe to be either all a light 

 foil, or part light and part heavy : the firft to 

 be cropped with carrots, and the fecond 

 with lucerne, for the joint fatting of cattle ; 

 but I may remark that thefe are both vege- 

 tables which will thrive on various foils, 

 carrots on loams that are only more inclin- 

 able to lightnefs than to heavinefs, and 

 lucerne upon light loams as well as clays. 

 But variations of foil are fo great upon 

 fmall trads, even in fmgle farms, that it is 

 no wild or improbable fuppofition to flate 

 the lucerne part of the farm dry and found, 

 but ftifF loam ; and the carrot part dry and 

 light loam. 



Any dry foil, from abfolute fand to a 

 ftiffim loam, will do for carrots : but no 

 clays : I have cultivated them with great 

 fuccefs on a good wheat loam.
