In two acres of land fummcr-fallowed for 

 wheat, the general was perfuaded not to fovr 

 it, as the red-worm would infallibly deftroy 

 the crop, he therefore kept it for barley, but 

 manured it with lime, 90 barrels an acre at 

 2idi each, from the hill of Howth in Auguft -, 

 the barley was eaten notwithstanding the lime ; 

 it was a very poor crop, and in fome places 

 none at all. Sowed the ftubble with peafe, 

 -which I faw, and were very fine. The gene- 

 ral tried a very extraordinary experiment upon 

 breaking up an old molTy grafs lay in an or- 

 chard, and laying it down again without hav- 

 ing any corn : it was manured with plenty of 

 land, then ploughed it up in Auguft ; directly 

 crofs- ploughed it; harrowed it thoroughly, 

 $nd threw about 20 barrels of lime an acre ; 

 burnt the roots, weeds, and tufts of grafs, 

 fprcad the afhes, harrowed it, and upon that, 

 about the beginning of September, fowed hay 

 .feeds. This was done to efcape the trouble of 



a courfe
