Mr. Lefly pra&ifed the drill husbandry fe- 

 veral years, in confequence of the recom- 

 mendations of Mr. Wynn Baker. He bought 

 of him a complete fet of tools for the purpofe, 

 a drill plough, horfe-hoes, &c. and fpared 

 neither attention or expenfe to give it a fair 

 trial, but found that it would not anfwer at 

 all, and then gave it up. Lucerne by tran- 

 fplantation he alfo tried, following Mr. Ba- 

 ker's inftruclions exactly ; but that did no 

 better than the other, and he ploughed it 

 up. 



In cattle, Mr. Lefly has been equally at- 

 tentive ; he procured one of Mr. Bakewell's 

 bulls two years ago, and has bred many calves 

 ,by him, but they are not yet of an age to ' 

 judge of the merit of the breed : the bull is 

 a very fine one. In draining he has made 

 confiderable exertions, principally by hollow 

 ones. Mr. Lefly's. granary is one of the beft 

 contrived I have feen in Ireland; it is raifed 

 over the th refiling iioor of his barn, and the 

 floor of it is a hair-cloth for the air to pafs 

 through the heap, whieh is a good contri- 

 vance. The whole building is well executed 

 and very convenient, and contains two large 

 bullock fheds.
