^ioe Tragical Kitchen Gardiner, 



inches thick, and foak'd for about twelve 

 or fixteen hours, you will have your 

 corn well impregnated, and alfo an ex- 

 cellent water for your fruit and kitchen 

 garden, ot indeed meadow or corn, or 

 any thing elfe of this kind. 



I (hall add but one methbd more, 

 which is to take the dung of cows, 

 horfes, fheep and pigeons, of each a 

 like quantity, put the whole together 

 into a veffel of wood or copper, upon 

 which pour water boiling hot, and fo 

 leave it for three or four days, more or 

 lefs, as your leifure will permit, till it 

 has extrafted all the quintelTencc of the 

 compounds that was put into it, then 

 pour out the water from that ordure in* 

 to another velTel, into which put as ma- 

 ny pounds of nitre as you have acres of 

 ground, or barrels of liquor, and when 

 the nitre is melted, put thereinto your 

 corn, which when foak'd eighteen or 

 twenty hours, more or lefs as you fee 

 occafion, let the liquor remain for wa- 

 tering your fruits, legumes, braflica or 

 cabbages, c^r. 



Far be it from me, that I fiiould recom- 

 mend the foregoing procefs and expence 

 except it be in little plantations and com- 



pafs
