Tin- p-uiul effect of I his manure i^ on uncultivated 

 e land. On moors, mountains, bo*;-, and

 undertakings, it is idle to be nice about the season 

 of applying the manure ; convenience demands 

 that the xvork should go on at all seasons, but in 

 the English counties where lime is most used, the 

 common season is summer, and on fallows.

 carting cannot be executed. The improver will 

 have no difficulty in knowing what he can, and 

 what he cannot execute ; but every work should be

 He who can contrive to employ most hands through 

 the year, will do his work cheaper than if he were 

 not regular in his employment.
