The foil is gravel and clay, but his arable 

 fields all clay. His couries of crops, 



1 . Fallow. 



2. Wheat, defigned for oats next, but 



if the land does not turn out very 

 clean and in good heart, then it is 

 fallow again. 

 1. Fallow — 2. Wheat — 3. Oats. 



Another : 

 I. Fallow— 2, Wheat — 3. Peafe or beans. 



A fourth : 

 I. Fallow — 2. Wheat — 3. Cabbages— 

 4. Oats. 

 An excellent courfe \ 



His fallow is this. As foon after MichaeU 

 mas as polTible, he breaks up the ftubble, 

 and throws in a chaldron of lime per acre : 

 It is then gripped well to lie dry during the 

 winter, to be ready in the fpring for what- 

 ever crop is thought mofl: proper. If the 

 countenance of the land is not good, either 

 from being weedy or want of being enough 

 reduced, it is fummer fallowed for wheat, 

 receiving in all fix or {f^tw earths ; but if it 

 carries a good appearance, it is either fown 

 with fpring corn, or planted with cabbages, 

 as fuppofed moft proper. Two bufhels of 

 wheat feed, the quantity and his crop four 

 quarters upon an average. 



For oats he ploughs once before winter^ 

 and once more in the fpring, and if the land 

 then is not pretty fme, he liirs a third time,
