are very proper kinds to fow Rt this feafon ; likewife the 

 rounci\'ai is a fine large pea for a late crop; but any 

 other of the large kind of peas may be Town any time this 

 month. 



The hotfpurs, or any of the fmaller kinds of peas, are 

 alfo proper to be fovvn now, i'f required ; for moll forts 

 will fucceed if fown any time in this month. 



Draw earth to fuch rows of peas wliich are come up and 

 advanced a little height. This will Itrengthen the plants, 

 and forward them greatly in their growth. 



This earthing (hould always be performed, for the firft 

 time, when the plants are about three or four inches 

 high. 



iiet flicks to peas where you intend it, for them to climb 

 upon. This fiiould be done in dac time. When the plants 

 are about five or fix inches high, it will bs proper to place 

 the fticks to the::!, obfervingto have Hicks of a proper height; 

 that is, for the marrowfat and other large peas, they fhould 

 be fix or feven feet high; but thofe of four or five feet 

 will do for th.e hotfpurs, and other fmall forts of peas. 



Fciatoes. 



Potatoes may yet be fuccefsfully planted, if it was 

 omitted in the former month ; but they Ihould be planted 

 the firll or fecond week in the month ; for, when planted 

 later than that time, they do not always fucceed well. 



Note, however, I have planted potatoes fo late as the 

 middle or latter end of this month, and have had very 

 fine autumn crops ; and have fometimes been obliged to 

 plant in May, and have alfo had tolerable good fuccefs. 

 But I ihould not advife this late planting for general prac- 

 tice ; only that in cafe the ground intended for planting 

 is not vacant, or cannot be fooner got ready than the rime 

 above-mentioned, you may, notwithllanding, venture to 

 plant them, with tolerable hopes of fuccefs ; but efpeci- 

 ally if it proves a dripping fummer, then you may expeit 

 a gopd full crop fit to take up about Michaelmas.
