dividuals ; but it may be fald, that nine ticrcs 

 of ten of the tiirneps grown in Eaft-Nor- 

 folk are manured for with '^ muck." The 

 quantity of malt-coombs made in the county is 

 inconfiderable, when compared with the num- 

 ber of acres of turneps annually fown in it ; 

 — and rape-cake is principally confined to the 

 north coafl : nor are either of thefe manures 

 equal to the tafl< of keeping up the foil thro* 

 the barley and the two grafs crops ; much 

 lefs of aflifting to fupport it under the fuc- 

 ceeding crop of wheat, in the manner which 

 may reafonably be expedted from a proper 

 dreffing of dung ; the whole quantity of which, 

 made upon a given farm, ought, in my opi- 

 nion, to be applied folcly to the turnep-crop : 

 and, if the foil require fupport under the 

 ■wheat, let it be affifted with lime, malt-dufl, 

 foot, oil-cake, or other light manures ; which 

 may not be only adequate to fecuring a crop 

 of wheat, but may be more or lefs ferviceable 

 to the fucceeding crop of barley. This has 

 already been mentioned •, but I think it merits 

 a repetition in this place.
