These weights of the root-crops have been ascertained by taking up three square 
perch of each in difl'erent parts of the crop, tiie swedes being topped and tailed, btit 
the mangold tailed only. Although the spots have been fairly selected for weighing, 
it is possible that if a whole acre had been weighed the result might have been some- 
wliat lower. 
IV. — Evidence on the Antiquity, Cheapne.<s, and Efficacy of 
Thorough- Draining , or Land-Ditching, as practised throughout 
the Counties of Suffolk, Hertford, Essex, and Norfolk, collected 
by Ph. Pusey. IVith Some Notice of Improved Machines 
for Tile-Making. 
I. Suffolk Draining. — 1. By the Rev. Copinger Hill. 
Now tliat Mr. Pusey has drawn public attention to the existence, 
for half a century, in the eastern counties, of a complete and 
economical system of drainage, it may not be amiss to describe in 
detail the practice to which he alludes.
