The capital pays 23 /. 18 /.; but this, 

 like all arable farms to gentlemen, is fub- 

 jedt to numerous inconveniencies and de- 

 dudtions not reducible to calculation. Few 

 gentlemen would chufe to manage fuch 

 a bufinefs as this, without the afliftance of 

 a bailey, whofe board, wafhing, lodging, 

 horfe, &c. cannot be reckoned at lefs than 

 60 or 70 /. a year^ befides what he may 

 think proper to cheat his mafter of. How- 

 ever, as baileys are mere afliftants to idle- 

 nefs, I fhall never fuppofe them kept : I 

 might, with as much propriety, fuppofe 

 any other matter of eafe or imagined con- 

 venience : all which a gentleman may, it is 

 true, employ; but they never ought to be fet 

 down to the account of neceffaries. I fhall 

 offer, before I conclude this work, fome 

 hints for the ufe of fuch gentlemen as arc 

 defirous of managing without baileys. 



Variation the fecond. 

 Three hundred and fifty acres arable^ fht 

 foil light enough for turnips. 



Thirty acres of this farm I fuppofe grafs 

 near the houfe.
