From this ftate of the Sainfoine culture* 

 I cannot help remarking how much the 

 vail tracks of poor light dry foils in this, 

 kingdom, call for f® cheap "and great an 

 improvement : There are many very execu- 

 tive waftes in the north of Engla?id admi- 

 rably adapted to this culture, and yet how 

 few have the fpirit to fet about even this 

 cheap and eafy improvement ! The poor 

 foils on which this grafs is the greatest im- 

 provement, are not worth cultivating in 

 any other manner ; the common wold, 

 huibandry is a proof of this. The yield- 

 ing food tor meep is not a comparable pro- 

 duce to rich crops of excellent hay and 

 after- feed -, but nothing fpeaks this clearer 

 than their letting only from i s. to as. an, 

 acre, and being railed by fainfoine to ioj. 

 and 25 s.

THIS excellent root is not fo univer- 

 fally known as a food for cattle, as it well 

 deferves : The experiments I met with 

 upon it are not numerous, but fome of 

 them are very valuable.
