irtg, and that none unthought of come into 

 this account, I apprehend it will be fuppof- 

 ed a moderate allowance to call the total 

 jT. 70,000,000. I do not imagine it can, 

 in any way of calculating, be laid at a lets 

 fum. Extraordinary lories of live (l:ock do 

 not come into the ettimate, no more than 

 other circumftances, which cannot fail of 

 bearing, in a courfe of years, pretty heavy 

 upon the farmer. However, to obviate ob- 

 jections, I (hall call the total expenditure 

 £. 65,000,000. 



But whether this fum, or that fpecified in 

 particulars, be fuppofed; in either cafe the 

 amount muft prove, very decisively, that the 

 particulars of product given by the author 

 of the Three Tracis, quoted above, are far 

 below the mark j for by proportioning the 

 total given by the preceding accounts, to 

 the amount of thofe particulars mentioned 

 by that writer, we find that the total pro- 

 duct of the lands of England will not amount 

 to near half the annual expenditure of hus- 

 bandry; which implies fo manifeft a con- 

 tradiction, that truth is totally irreconcile- 

 able to it : And although fome of my par- 

 ticulars are conjectural, and others may 

 be contrary to fome received opinions, 

 yet I apprehend it will prove an un- 

 furmountable difficulty to reduce them all 

 fo much to nothing, as is neceiiary to 



render
