i_o leave_v to_o your_o convenience_n what_o cattle_n be_v fit_a to_o graze_v it_o with_o clover-grass_n be_v food_n for_o all_o sort_n of_o cattle_n but_o you_o must_v have_v a_o special_a care_n when_o you_o first_o put_v ox_n or_o kine_n into_o it_o i_o have_v hear_v of_o some_o ox_n and_o kine_n that_o have_v be_v put_v in_o well_o and_o have_v be_v dead_a in_o four_o or_o five_o hour_n but_o a_o little_a care_n do_v prevent_v the_o danger_n when_o you_o put_v they_o in_o for_o the_o first_o day_n let_v they_o be_v in_o about_o a_o quarter_n of_o a_o hour_n the_o second_o day_n half_a a_o hour_n the_o three_o day_n a_o hour_n the_o four_o day_n a_o hour_n and_o a_o half_a the_o five_o day_n about_o two_o hour_n and_o the_o six_o day_n three_o hour_n and_o the_o seven_o day_n you_o may_v let_v they_o stay_v in_o without_o danger_n you_o must_v also_o have_v a_o care_n that_o your_o kine_n or_o ox_n drink_v not_o of_o two_o hour_n after_o they_o come_v out_o of_o the_o clover_n for_o this_o grass_n be_v so_o sweet_a a_o feed_n for_o they_o that_o drink_v immediate_o after_o it_o they_o be_v in_o danger_n of_o swell_a it_o be_v excellent_a feed_n for_o ox_n and_o kine_n and_o it_o be_v observe_v that_o kine_n do_v give_v more_o and_o better_a milk_n in_o clover-grass_n than_o they_o do_v in_o any_o other_o and_o the_o butter_n and_o cheese_n be_v much_o better_a than_o that_o which_o be_v raise_v upon_o ordinary_a grass_n horse_n you_o may_v put_v into_o it_o at_o any_o time_n without_o any_o danger_n and_o it_o do_v feed_v and_o cure_v they_o of_o many_o disease_n sheep_n may_v be_v put_v in_o without_o danger_n and_o indeed_o it_o be_v a_o very_a expeditious_a way_n of_o fat_a sheep_n clover-grass_n will_v be_v ready_a for_o they_o in_o the_o begin_n of_o march_n and_o you_o will_v find_v they_o fat_a in_o ten_o week_n some_o man_n have_v make_v good_a profit_n by_o this_o way_n of_o feed_v they_o swine_n you_o may_v put_v in_o at_o any_o time_n without_o danger_n who_o feed_v and_o grow_v wonderful_o in_o it_o to_o those_o person_n who_o want_v meat_n for_o their_o swine_n this_o food_n will_v be_v very_o acceptable_a and_o as_o it_o be_v a_o certain_a cheap_a and_o speedy_a way_n of_o feed_v swine_n so_o it_o be_v observe_v that_o swine_n do_v very_o much_o improve_v the_o land_n their_o dung_n be_v a_o excellent_a manure_n as_o for_o the_o hay_n of_o clover_n in_o the_o winter_n we_o see_v that_o our_o cattle_n will_v forsake_v our_o meadow-hay_a for_o it_o and_o it_o be_v with_o we_o account_v as_o good_a for_o a_o horse_n as_o ordinary_a hay_n and_o provender_n i_o do_v not_o approve_v of_o graze_a clover_n in_o the_o winter_n for_o i_o know_v it_o do_v it_o much_o hurt_n and_o cut_v it_o in_o a_o very_a dry_a time_n be_v injurious_a to_o it_o to_o conclude_v this_o point_n of_o feed_v reader_n let_v i_o tell_v thou_o if_o thou_o have_v a_o good_a parcel_n of_o land_n that_o be_v fit_a for_o clover_n and_o have_v money_n to_o stock_n it_o as_o it_o ought_v to_o be_v a_o better_a opportunity_n of_o increase_v thy_o estate_n thy_o heart_n can_v desire_v i_o know_v many_o man_n that_o have_v make_v great_a advantage_n by_o clover_n yet_o have_v not_o make_v that_o profit_n by_o it_o which_o they_o may_v have_v do_v for_o want_v of_o a_o sufficient_a stock_n to_o put_v upon_o it_o and_o some_o man_n that_o upon_o very_o good_a farm_n can_v not_o keep_v so_o many_o cattle_n as_o their_o tillage_n do_v require_v not_o have_v meadow-ground_n that_o can_v now_o keep_v with_o clover_n many_o more_o though_o they_o have_v much_o more_o of_o their_o ground_n in_o tillage_n than_o they_o have_v before_o i_o may_v tell_v you_o how_o it_o feed_v goose_n and_o turkey_n but_o if_o any_o of_o it_o grow_v near_o your_o house_n you_o will_v soon_o be_v sensible_a of_o it_o and_o i_o be_o sure_a it_o will_v save_v much_o of_o that_o corn_n which_o be_v give_v to_o that_o sort_n of_o poultry_n the_o author_n readiness_n to_o give_v any_o man_n further_a satisfaction_n in_o my_o last_o i_o tell_v you_o that_o if_o any_o gentleman_n or_o other_o person_n desire_v to_o be_v further_o satisfy_v in_o any_o thing_n relate_v to_o this_o husbandry_n i_o shall_v be_v ready_a to_o contribute_v my_o best_a assistance_n in_o order_n thereunto_o if_o they_o please_v to_o come_v to_o my_o house_n at_o ashley_n in_o the_o country_n of_o worcester_n there_o i_o shall_v be_v ready_a to_o show_v they_o what_o experiment_n i_o have_v make_v and_o to_o give_v they_o such_o visible_a argument_n of_o the_o truth_n of_o what_o i_o have_v print_v that_o may_v convince_v the_o most_o incredulous_a this_o my_o offer_n i_o shall_v god_n willing_a make_v good_a and_o in_o my_o absence_n mr._n robert_n vicaris_n my_o next_o neighbour_n will_v be_v ready_a to_o perform_v what_o i_o have_v here_o promise_v i_o will_v have_v give_v you_o a_o account_n in_o this_o book_n of_o many_o more_o experiment_n and_o observation_n but_o that_o it_o will_v too_o much_o enlarge_v this_o second_o edition_n and_o in_o that_o i_o design_v this_o also_o chief_o for_o worcester-shire_n stafford-shire_n shrop-shire_n and_o some_o part_n of_o hereford-shire_n such_o quotation_n be_v the_o less_o necessary_a for_o great_a part_n of_o the_o land_n in_o these_o county_n be_v so_o fit_a for_o this_o husbandry_n that_o the_o management_n of_o it_o be_v the_o less_o difficult_a and_o man_n general_o begin_v to_o be_v expert_a in_o it_o yet_o such_o have_v be_v the_o importunity_n of_o some_o for_o my_o first_o book_n of_o which_o i_o have_v none_o leave_v that_o force_v i_o with_o this_o enlargement_n to_o reprint_v it_o before_o i_o have_v perform_v what_o in_o it_o i_o promise_v viz._n a_o second_o part_n of_o the_o discourse_n of_o clover_n and_o of_o other_o land_n that_o be_v fit_a for_o it_o the_o delay_n of_o which_o i_o hope_v will_v be_v recompense_v by_o those_o trial_n that_o be_v now_o on_o foot_n upon_o such_o land_n for_o if_o there_o be_v none_o of_o those_o four_o sort_n of_o land_n before_o mention_v in_o england_n i_o shall_v yet_o make_v no_o doubt_n of_o raise_v a_o very_a great_a profit_n by_o clover_n upon_o many_o sort_n of_o clay_n or_o clayish_a land_n and_o this_o i_o hope_v in_o a_o short_a time_n to_o make_v appear_v though_o this_o land_n require_v somewhat_o more_o of_o art_n and_o patience_n and_o may_v in_o our_o first_o essay_n give_v we_o more_o discouragement_n than_o those_o land_n that_o be_v every_o way_n fit_v for_o this_o husbandry_n but_o my_o present_a business_n be_v to_o give_v my_o countryman_n a_o remedy_n for_o his_o gravelly_a dry_v sandy_n or_o rye_n land_n which_o be_v wear_v out_o with_o tillage_n and_o lime_v i_o know_v it_o be_v a_o common_a disease_n in_o these_o part_n where_o lime_n be_v cheap_a and_o the_o common_a cure_n be_v as_o bad_a as_o the_o disease_n itself_o but_o clover_n you_o will_v find_v to_o be_v a_o certain_a speedy_a profitable_a cure_n for_o such_o land_n for_o it_o yield_v you_o a_o great_a advantage_n in_o the_o interim_n that_o be_v for_o three_o or_o four_o year_n and_o in_o the_o five_o year_n after_o be_v as_o fit_v for_o corn_n as_o though_o it_o have_v lie_v in_o grass_n twenty_o year_n and_o as_o clover_n be_v fit_a for_o land_n that_o be_v thus_o become_v useless_a and_o almost_o uncapable_a of_o any_o other_o husbandry_n with_o profit_n so_o this_o land_n be_v fit_a for_o clover_n and_o that_o which_o render_v it_o unprofitable_a to_o we_o viz._n that_o it_o be_v unapt_a to_o natural_a grass_n the_o two_o first_o year_n do_v render_v it_o most_o profitable_a to_o we_o in_o clover_n and_o as_o lime_n by_o its_o speedy_a work_n downward_o do_v soon_o get_v through_o the_o uppermost_a part_n of_o the_o earth_n which_o long_o retain_v our_o other_o soil_n so_o the_o clover_n do_v shut_v its_o root_n straight_o downward_o and_o deep_o in_o the_o earth_n whereby_o it_o partake_v of_o that_o virtue_n which_o otherwise_o will_v be_v lose_v be_v get_v without_o the_o reach_n of_o other_o root_n and_o this_o may_v be_v one_o reason_n why_o land_n that_o have_v be_v lime_v bear_v much_o more_o clover_n than_o the_o same_o land_n when_o it_o have_v not_o have_v lime_n upon_o it_o beside_o the_o lime_n do_v much_o mellow_a and_o open_v our_o land_n whereby_o the_o clover_n have_v the_o better_a advantage_n of_o take_v root_n i_o intend_v here_o to_o add_v a_o few_o letter_n about_o this_o husbandry_n but_o because_o they_o be_v long_o i_o print_v only_o this_o ensure_v from_o a_o ingenious_a gentleman_n sir_n since_o we_o have_v have_v such_o convince_a experience_n and_o have_v taste_v the_o
