The wafte, in re-drelTing the corn, (which is 

 what the farmers ought to do) is about 3 lb. a 

 barrel. 



The pollard Mr. Jebb tried, for fix years, 

 in giving to pigs. Bought in Jlores in Sep- 

 tember, at 7 s. to 20 s. each, and put them to 

 pollard given wet, about the thicknefs of 

 gruel ; it could have been fold for 2 s. a barrel 

 of 6 ffcone, and in feeding, it did not produce 

 more than 10 d. a barrel ; pork from 18 s. to 

 20s. per cwt. Thinks it would not more 

 than pay the 2 s. a barrel if pok was 40 s. 

 per cwt. Tried alfo breeding fows, bought 

 Berkihire fows fed upon the pollard, but it 

 did not anfwer better than the other method. 

 The pork fed upon it was foft, and not near 

 fo good as potatoe fed. Mr. Jebb thinks, 

 however, that if he had had plenty of llraw 

 litter, as the ftone-yard foundered them and 

 clover for the fummer food, that it would 

 have paid the 2 s. a barrel, but not more, the
