On Carrots,

flF 



CARROTS are another very beneficial 

 vegetable for feeding, and many 

 other profitable ufes. The cultivation of 

 them in all the different foils they will 

 thrive in will be very advantageous to the 

 farmer. I mail endeavour to give fuch 

 plain and eafy directions for the propaga- 

 tion of them, as I hope will be liiccefs- 

 ful, allowing for the common accidents of 

 ieafons. 



ALL the farmers may keep their horfes 

 from the beginning of September to near 

 May-day with carrots and hay, without 



one grain of corn, which muft occafion a 

 great faving of oats.
