Of this soil and its management I shall treat more particularly 

 hereafter. 



Fallowing is generally practiced in all these soils \ for, as turnips 

 are little known, the farmers are obliged to have occasional re- 

 course thereunto, to clean their land, made foul by fuccessive com 

 crops. 



The common manures are marie, lime, farm yard, and stable 

 dung. In some parts near the turnpike road, which is mostly 

 made with lime stone, the scrapings of it are mixed with dung ; and 

 this manure is well adapted to pasimc land, bringing a luxuriant 

 carpet of white clover. 



The ploughs commonly used are strong single ones ; sometimes 

 with one small wheel, sometimes with a foot only. The great 

 length of the mould board occasions too much friction ; and it 

 cannot be deemed a good implement : but prejudice is strongly in 

 its favor, notwithstanding considerable pains have been taken to 

 shew the superiority of other ploughs. 



The carts are mostly large and strong tumbrels for the uses of 

 husbandry \ but the shape varies in different parishes,
