remains 25; which call 20 for carting 

 compoft: 100 chaldrons lime, the ftable, 

 dunghill, and 700 of earth as before : there 

 will be ample time for this, with due al- 

 lowances for weather. 



But we muft here confider tlie manage- 

 ment of the 20 acres of grafs that has been 

 mown : it will be advifable to feed it pretty 

 often ; the moory foil is loofe, and nothing 

 is of greater ufe than treading fuch a foil: 

 the regular ftock that is kept thro' winter 

 fliould be cows : but for fummer alone, I 

 iliould advife the (locking with young cat- 

 tle J buying in Scotch heifers, for inftance, 

 of two years old 5 and felling them after a 

 year's grafs. It is very profitable, and will 

 certainly pay 40 j-. an acre, clear profit for 

 the grlafs, one cannot eftimate the produdl 

 jn this manner at lefs : it is certainly un- 

 der the mark, and fo I would chufe the 

 calculation fliould be; but it is to be ob- 

 ferved,that I fliall, in purchafmg the cows, 

 allow for the feed of the 4 horfes. They 

 mull be kept in winter on the ftraw, with 

 fome hay at proper times 3 the farm will 

 thus be a very v/ell appointed one. There 

 will be every year 20 acres of Itraw, 20 

 of hay, and 20 of turnips for the flieep.
