ON CARROTS, 251 



THERE are fome kinds of foils (which 

 have been mentioned before) that cab.- 

 bages will thrive on, that are not fit to he 

 fucceeded by carrots ; but as carrots are 

 fo advantageous a crop, if there is any 

 ground in the farm that is fit for them, it 

 mould be fo contrived as to be planted 

 with cabbages, that the carrots may be 

 fovvn after them. 





IT is a good method, where there arq 

 large quantities of potatoes propagated, 

 to plant firfl potatoes, which are always 

 dunged with long dung. 



T o prepare the ground properly, it 

 fhpuld be plowed as foon as the potatoes 

 are taken up, to mix and rot the long 

 dung that they were planted with. It 

 ihould lay rough all winter ; early in the 

 fpring harrowed, then dunged according 

 as the ground is in heart ; then plowed, 

 harrowed, and planted with cabbages, to 

 be managed as before directed, and fown 

 with carrots next fpring.
