THE CULTURE OF 



Further Treatment to be observed. 



If in removing the first formed heaps, it 

 is discovered that any considerable quantity 

 of the leaves remain sound, which can only 

 happen from the want of wet, it will be be- 

 neficial to moisten them by a pot or pan of 

 water, having a rose, from which they will 

 more speedily become rotten. By after- 

 wards turning over the whole once in two or 

 three weeks, and affording a moderate sup- 

 ply of water as before to the undecayed 

 leaves, by Midsummer, the whole will have 

 becom'e one general heap of soft and light 

 soil, admirably calculated for the culture of 

 plants requiring cool soils ; and to render 

 this competent to the production of their 

 fruits in the fullest perfection, it will be 

 only necessary to apply rotten neat's, cow's, 

 or swine's dung, as directed, to be inter- 

 mixed and incorporated with bog soil.
