CABBAGES. 245 



i if the ground is. rough and lumpy, 

 xv ate r is absolutely neceflary, although 

 there has been a good deal of rain. 



IF cabbages are managed on the different 

 foils, as here directed, they will be a pro- 

 fitable crop, and few will be without them 

 after they have experienced the great ad- 

 vantage they are of in winter- feeding. 



No cattle are fond of eating vegetables 

 when they are frozen ; therefore if the 

 cabbages are carried home and laid in a 

 cow-houfe fingly, where cattle are kept, 

 the heat of the place will foon thaw them ; 

 but if they lie in a heap they will continue 

 frozen, although in a very warm place. 



IT will require no great room to thaw 

 them ; for after a few are thawed, and 

 the cattle fed, fome may be laid all along 

 behind them, to be ready -againft thefe are 

 eaten. This will be very little trouble, 

 the cattle will be much better fed, and 

 {here will be no wafte.
