that there is no necessity to attempt it in the drill 

 method. 



I have seen it cultivated, however, with great 

 success, drilled at nine inches across drilled barley, 

 on the farms of Mr. Coke and Mr. Overman, in 

 Norfolk. 



BURNET. 



This is a proper season for sowing burnet; and 

 the best method of cultivating it is, to sow about a 

 bushel per acre, with either barley or oats, and to 

 cover it at two harrovvings. It flourishes extremely 

 well on most soils ; but it yields a produce propor- 

 tioned to the goodness of the land, though it will 

 do on those which are very indifferent. The great 

 use of it is for spring feed for sheep. If left of a 

 proper height in the autumn, it will improve 

 .-through the winter, notwithstanding frost, and be 

 ready early in the spring. This is a great excel- 

 'lency, in "which it is rivalled by no other grass. 

 Burnet does well mixed with ray -grass or cocks- 

 foot: about three pecks of burnet, and one bushel 

 of ray-grass, or cocksfoot, to the acre. 



SOW^CHICORY. 



This plant* (most valuable for many purposes) 



may be sown wrth any sort of spring corn all 



-through this month. It may be put in either 



broad-cast, sowing 12lb. of seed per acre, or 



drilled at a foot distance, with Qlb. or lOlb. (Jver 



* broad-past, or drilled corn.
