Ibmetlmes thrown upon; but this is feldom 

 done, unlefs there does not happen to be a 

 clover-flubbie in the neighbourhood of the 

 turnep piece ; and even then, it is conlidered 

 as bad management ,* unlefs the feafon be very 

 dry, and the furface lound. 



In a wet lealon, tlie Norfolk farmers, even 

 on their dry foil, are fometimes put to incon- 

 veniences for clean ground to throw upon 5 and, 

 notwithftanding the value of teathc, when the 

 land will bear the bullocks, I have known a 

 farmer aflc leave of his neighbour to let him 

 throw turneps upon an adjoining piece of found 

 olland ; rather choofing to lofe his teathc 

 than check his bullocks. 



Hence, in laying out a Norfolk farm, it 

 is proper to endeavour to intermix the crops 

 in fuch a manner that a piece of turneps fhall 

 have, at leafl:, two pieces of lav in its neio-h- 

 bourhood. 



The method of throv/ing turneps is fimilar 

 to that of fetting on manure ; the carts be- 

 ginning on one fide of a clofe, and working 

 regularly to the other ; giving every part an 

 equal fliare ; and never throwing twice in the 

 fame place, until the' whole has been gone over.
