fetrt!?. What is the faving of feed per acre ? 



9nstDCr» Not lefs than fix pecks, nor more than eight 

 pecks, per acre, are dibbled : if fown broadcaft, from three to 

 four bufhels per acre. 



fi>Cbent£» What is the additional produce per acre ? 

 Sinstoer* This is not yet afcertained by experiment : efti- 

 mated at four to fix bufhels per acre. 



©igf)f£» Is the grain of a better quality ? 

 2ngtocr» Exceeds the broadcaft, in weight, from ten td 

 "twelve pounds in the quarter. 



iSHntfn Can the praftice be eafily diffeminated? 



9ttsiDer. By employing perfons ufed to dibbling, with thofe 

 that are totally ftrangers to the prafliee, will readily teach them 

 the way : and, upon enquiry, I find perfons in this neigh- 

 bourhood willing to engage themfelves, for a feafon, at a tri- 

 fling addition of wages, and their travelling expences allowed 

 them. 



UnstJjv Stritt attention is required towards the children, 

 that they are not fuffered to drop more than three or four 

 grains of wheat, barley, or oats into each hole, nor more than 

 two or three beans or peas, as it may confiderably injure the 

 crop, befides wafte of feed. 



Any information I can obtain farther, to throw light on 

 this fubje&j I fhall be happy to communicate, and remain, &c.
