 drilled corn, kept perfedtly clean, is a better sample than 

 the common run of broad-cast, and he finds it difficult to 

 get, in the country, a price proportioned to the merit of 

 his produflions ; and to send the corn by sea to London, 

 does not cost so much as land-carriage to Lynn would do. 

 Entering on a new farm of Mr. Coke's, a year and a 

 half past, and finding many hurdles necessary, he sent his 

 ship to Sussex for a lading of hurdles: there, made much 

 better, of riven oak, and at the same time lighter thaa 

 others to be liad in Norfolk : they cost him 3s. 6d. each, 

 and will last 20 years. Common wattle hurdles cost is. 

 is. id. besides long carriage, and will not last above two 

 years. 



Mr. Money Hill, of Waterden, has also a sloop of 

 50 tons, which goes to sea, with two men and two boys: 

 he built her, and the employment is the same as Mr. 

 Overman's. Mr. Davy has likewise one. They have 

 not yet brought manure from London ; though probably 

 tallow-chandlers' graves, woollen rags, and various other 

 articles, would answer as well as rape-cake, at the present 

 prjce of 7I. to 81. per ton.
