130 MARCH. 



land breaks well with the harrow, it is best to har- 

 row in on all but the very lightest lands. But on 

 loose sands, or very light and porous soils, or those 

 that are extremely dry, it must eertainly be prefer- 

 able to plough in, on account of having a greater 

 depth, and of being further from the sun, which is 

 apr, in hot summers, to burn these soils. 



Pease should be sown after corn. They always 

 come in best after wheat, barley, or oats, generally 

 with good husbandry after layers. I can hardly 

 suppose a situation, where this is not the right ma- 

 nagement : they come very properly into sucli 

 courses as these : 



J. Turnips, 4. Pease, 



2. Barley, 5. Wheat: 



3. Clover, 



. Or, l. Cabbages, 4. Pease, 



2. Oats, 5. Wheat. 



3. Clover, 



When wheat succeeds clover, you may throw in a 

 crop of pease after it, if it suits you better than to. 

 come again to turnips, cabbages, or beans, the first 

 of the ctftifse. 



" If \vet weather happens whilst the pease lie inv 

 wads, it occasions a considerable loss, many of 

 them being shed in the field, and of those that re- 

 main, a great part will be so considerably injured, as 

 to render the sample of liiilc value. This inability 

 m .pease to resist a wet harvest, together with the 

 great uncertainty through Out their growth, and the 

 frequent inadequate return in proportion to the 



length
