JX2 COURSE OF CROPS. 



1. Turni[is, 4. Ditto, 



2. Barley, 5. Buck-wheat, or pease, 



3. Clover and ray^ 6. Wheat. 



It was remarked more than thirty years ago, near Nor- 

 wich, that the crops of barley, after turnips fed late, were 

 generally bad, which led to a pradice tiiat deserves not- 

 ing: buck-wheat was substituted, which succeeded well, 

 and was followed by wheat ; an observation very applica- 

 ble to Swedish turnips at present. 



COURSES ON STRONGER LAND. 

 At Thelton, Mr. Havers, on his drier soils: 



1. Turnips, 



2. Barley, 



3. Clover, once in eight years, the land being sick of 



it, 



4. Wheat, dibbled. 

 But on heavy land : 



X. Summer-fallow, 4. Wheat, dibbled, 



2. Barley, 5. Beans. 



3. Clover, once In eight years, 



On either soil, in the intermediate course, trefoil, ray, 

 and white suckling, substituted for clover; sometimes left 

 two years, and then pease on the lighter land, and beans 

 on the heavy — wheat following. 



Mr. Drake, of Billingford, on heavy land; 



1. Summer-fallow, 4. Wheat, 



2. Barley, 5. Beans or oats. 



3. Clover, 



But as the land is sick of clover, he does not sow It of- 

 tener than once in eight or ten years ; using white clover 

 the intermediate round. 



On his light land, the common four-shift husbandry. 



Mr. Pitts, at Thorpe Abbots, on gravel: 



I. Turnips,
