36O BUCK-WHEAT AFTER TARES. [jUNE. 



FALLOWS. 



The fallows, whether for wheat or barley, if in 

 common management, should this month receive a 

 stirring ; by which the crops of weeds, that have 

 arisen since the land was ploughed and harrowed 

 fine, the latter end of April, or the beginning of 

 May, will all be turned in and destroyed. 



But in the more modern management, it is not 

 necessary to give any ploughing this month ; the 

 weeds are better destroyed by the broad shim, or by 

 the scufflers, which should work till just before har- 

 vest, and then one earth if wanted will be effective.

This crop bearing to be sown so late is, in many 

 cases, a most valuable circumstance. By means

 good order, and quite free from seed-weeds. If 

 the stubbles are broken up in Oclober, he must be 

 an indolent farmer that cannot get his land fine 

 and clean by the middle of June. 



BUCK-WHEAT AFI'ER TARES. 



This is a very beneficial system, which was first 

 explained by the Rev. Mr. Moscly, of Suffolk, and 

 it is so much deserving of attention, that I shall 

 insert his own account of it. 



The excellent Norfolk method of managing light 

 lands I generally adhc're to, viz. turnips, barley, 

 clover, and wheat ; but finding, from a failure ot 

 clover in my two last crops after barley, that the 

 succeeding ones were not equal to my expectation,
