 preferver of them, the coai-afhes or fea- 

 fand being under them, as before-men- 

 tioned. 



There is another method that is liked 

 well, for the preferving of peafe and 

 beans in the winter, and that is the 

 trenching in fome long dung, ftraw or 

 thatch, into the borders where you in- 

 tend to plant or fow peafe or beans, for 

 this keeps the ground hollow, and draws 

 off all the fuperfiuous moifture that is . 

 apt to rot the roots or fibres of peafe 

 and other pulfe. 



I muft not omit to acquaint my reader, 

 that peafe, as well as beans, will tranf- 

 plant in about a month or fix weeks af- 

 ter they are fov/n 5 on which account 

 it is that you may fow them under frames 

 and glaHes early in the month of Ja- 

 nuary, and fometimes in February^ if the 

 weather be fair, or rather in the begin- 

 Bing of March., you may tranfplant them 

 out under reed-hedges, or in warm bor- 



ders^
