i8o Of the Management^ and 

 over marrd, which as has been before hinted, 

 is a much greater Fault than under marling: 

 For Lands that are toleraby good, and not 

 deep, from 60 to i zo Load on an Acre is fuf- 

 ficient, but there are barren Lands that arc 

 very deep, that will require 3 or 400 Load 5 

 but thefe Lands are not fo common as midling 

 Lands are, and every Husbandman ought to 

 try before he depends on any precifc Rules, 

 be they never fo fpecious. 



To thefe Maries we may adjoyn Clays, 

 which are fomething of the fame Nature, 

 iho' if they are good, they are moft unftuous 

 and clammy ; yet being dug in May or Jnne^ 

 and expos'd to the Corrections of the Sun and 

 Air in the folftitial Months, the fucceeding 

 Autumn Rains, wtU make them excellent Ma- 

 nure for all light Lands, by allaying the Heat 

 and giving a proper Ligature and Confiftence 

 to them, and making them more folid and 

 tenacious, and more conflant in the Produ- 

 ftion of their Crops-, and, which is ot no fmall 

 ufe, deftrudiive to Weed*. Even Clays ought 

 not to be fet light by in fandy Countries, but 

 Experiments fliould be made of them,whether 

 they will be any ways a help, and thefe Ex- 

 periments are neither dangerous nor expen-

 either fandy or clayey, the diligent Husband- 

 man will endeavour to prepare Mixtures of a 

 .different Nature, there being, as we have
