means, — with the probable expense. When the sur- 

 veyor is going over the lands, he can take his notes 

 of all such, so that he can bring them briefly into 

 such a state attached to the maps or plans, as will be 

 of great use and highly satisfactory to the proprietor, 

 at little expense, and which will afterwards save him 

 considerable outlay. 



A proprietor having a plan or map of his estates 

 furnished with these remarks, when judicially made^ 

 although he is a thousand miles distant from his pro- 

 perty, can give directions and instructions for cul- 

 tivating and improving, by planting, draining, kCo 

 &c. &;c. this, that or the other part, portion, or so 

 many acres of any part of his waste lands he may 

 from time to time think proper and advisable, and 

 knows something of the probable expense and the 

 returns he is likely to have from all such. This is a 

 matter of very great importance, and I hope will be- 

 come general in future. I have often had to regret, 

 and many a time complained of the want of such a 

 report when called upon to value the woods, planta- 

 tions, and timber trees on the lands of an estate, 

 particularly when the property was for sale, and 

 when the proprietor put into my hand the plan, he 

 supposing it would be of the greatest use to me, 

 whereas it was, for want of this very thing, as before 

 stated, for no more use to me, nor any other man, for 

 such a valuation, than an Aberdeen or Balfast old al- 

 manack.
