ON CARROTS. 



they fhould follow a crop that has been, 

 dunged the preceding year ; for the 

 ground mutt be in good heart, or there 

 will be little profit,

THERE is no crop that prepares the 

 ground & well for carrots as cabbages ; 

 when carrots are intended after cabbages, 

 before the cabbages are planted the ground 

 fhould be well dunged previous to the 

 laft plowing. 



THE cabbages mould be all got off by 

 Candlemas, and as foon as the ground is 

 tolerably dry it fhould be plowed as deep 

 as the plow can go, and lie rough until 

 near the time of fowing ; it then fhould 

 be well harrowed with a large harrow, 

 which will make it fine at top. It mull 

 be plowed again directly, for if rain 

 mould come before it is plowed, all the 

 fine mould at top will run into a hard 

 crufr., and all the advantage of the early 

 plowing will be loft.
