MY OPfiV EXPERIENCE. 



197 



In summer, all my small houses are placed on 

 grass, in winter, on dry earth, against a beech 

 hedge, facing the west; twice a-week they ate 

 moved to fresh ground: if done regularly, and 

 in line, the ground has time to freshen during 

 each remove. 



When not in use, I have the runs set aside 

 so as to leave the pastxu's perfectly clear; the 

 grass springs up luxuriantly, and should be 

 mown at intervals. Lime is sprinkled over the 

 portion of the park allotted to them, which keeps 

 it free from taint.
