POMON A: Or, 
the only Reafon, but by often Dreffings, as aforefaid, the Rains (when 
they happen) have a free Entrance, and confequently ftore the Earth 
with greater Quantities of Moifture, neceflary for the Support of Plants, 
chan when the Surface being hard and refifts, the Moifture cannot enter, 
but is immediately remanded back into the Atmofphere.. 
WET boggy Lands are beft drain’d dry by Trenches dug in prope 
Places, to convey away the too much Moifture tov fome proper Place of 
Reception ; and if {uch Trenches are filled at their Bottoms, about 
one Foot high, with Pot-fherds, Pebbles, Brick-bats, do’. they will 
always keep an open free Paflage for the Water ; and in want of them, 
a Laying of Bufhes, or Faggots of Beech, Alder, Ozier, @c. will en- 
dure many Years, and anfwer the fame End.
