reason_n why_o clover_n do_v so_o extreme_o thrive_v upon_o lime_a land_n rather_o than_o upon_o the_o same_o land_n when_o it_o have_v not_o be_v lime_v which_o experience_n do_v full_o convince_v we_o be_v true_a and_o for_o which_o many_o reason_n be_v assign_v that_o it_o be_v so_o none_o deny_v and_o why_o it_o be_v so_o i_o have_v give_v you_o some_o account_n in_o my_o other_o book_n there_o be_v two_o other_o sort_n of_o land_n that_o bear_v clover_n 1._o land_n that_o be_v of_o a_o mix_a nature_n and_o that_o have_v somewhat_o more_o of_o clay_n in_o it_o than_o the_o three_o sort_n of_o land_n before_o mention_v who_o clod_n be_v apt_a to_o fall_v in_o piece_n in_o a_o wet_a time_n and_o be_v not_o subject_a to_o cling_v 2._o second_o clay-land_n that_o be_v not_o subject_a to_o retain_v the_o wet_a and_o that_o lie_v upon_o a_o shut_v so_o that_o the_o rain_n and_o other_o water_n run_v speedy_o off_o it_o which_o land_n be_v much_o the_o better_a if_o it_o face_n to_o the_o south_n we_o may_v be_v so_o much_o the_o more_o confident_a of_o success_n upon_o these_o two_o sort_n of_o land_n if_o they_o have_v be_v well_o lime_v and_o we_o have_v a_o dry_a seed_v time_n and_o you_o must_v be_v sure_a to_o make_v this_o land_n as_o fine_a light_a and_o mellow_a as_o you_o can_v and_o when_o you_o have_v get_v clover_n upon_o it_o it_o will_v by_o its_o root_n and_o broad_a leaf_n make_v and_o keep_v your_o land_n much_o more_o light_a and_o mellow_a or_o moustree_fw-mi which_o will_v be_v a_o great_a advantage_n when_o you_o come_v to_o sow_v corn_n again_o i_o have_v observe_v upon_o this_o sort_n of_o mix_a and_o clay-land_n excellent_a good_a clover_n and_o i_o know_v some_o that_o have_v a_o very_a great_a advantage_n upon_o it_o yet_o i_o think_v the_o unseasonableness_n or_o extreamness_n of_o the_o weather_n have_v a_o great_a influence_n upon_o clover_n to_o its_o detriment_n in_o this_o land_n than_o they_o have_v in_o the_o other_o sort_n of_o land_n upon_o my_o own_o knowledge_n i_o say_v this_o land_n will_v bear_v it_o and_o that_o with_o very_a much_o advantage_n yet_o i_o advise_v the_o unexperienced_a rather_o to_o make_v their_o first_o trial_n upon_o one_o of_o the_o four_o sort_n of_o land_n before_o mention_v i_o have_v hear_v of_o some_o who_o fall_v upon_o this_o sort_n of_o land_n in_o their_o essay_n and_o either_o though_o their_o unskilfulness_n or_o some_o other_o miscarriage_n it_o have_v fail_v they_o they_o have_v then_o make_v it_o their_o business_n to_o cry_v out_o against_o clover_v of_o land_n in_o the_o general_n or_o at_o least_o to_o persuade_v man_n that_o that_o sort_n of_o land_n will_v not_o bear_v it_o i_o do_v believe_v that_o there_o be_v many_o secret_n about_o the_o nature_n of_o clover_n yet_o to_o be_v discover_v and_o about_o the_o fit_a land_n for_o it_o and_o i_o do_v not_o doubt_v but_o in_o a_o short_a time_n we_o shall_v attain_v to_o much_o more_o kowledge_v about_o the_o management_n of_o clay_n land_n so_o as_o to_o raise_v good_a clover_n upon_o they_o i_o have_v hear_v from_o good_a author_n that_o in_o some_o clay_n land_n where_o it_o be_v not_o extreme_a bind_a clay_n they_o have_v much_o success_n and_o have_v make_v good_a progress_n in_o the_o discovery_n i_o can_v hearty_o wish_v some_o ingenious_a person_n will_v so_o far_o befriend_v the_o public_a as_o to_o give_v more_o full_a direction_n about_o clay_n land_n than_o i_o can_v upon_o my_o own_o knowledge_n not_o have_v the_o opportunity_n of_o so_o many_o trial_n upon_o that_o land_n as_o upon_o other_o land_n first_o mention_v the_o profit_n of_o clover_n as_o for_o the_o profit_n that_o may_v and_o usual_o be_v make_v by_o clover_n i_o be_o at_o a_o great_a stand_n whether_o i_o have_v not_o better_o whole_o omit_v i●_n and_o say_v nothing_o of_o it_o for_o if_o i_o tell_v you_o what_o i_o have_v read_v and_o hear_v from_o other_o i_o shall_v forfeit_v my_o credit_n with_o some_o and_o what_o i_o affirm_v will_v be_v take_v to_o be_v impossible_a if_o i_o tell_v you_o what_o i_o have_v see_v and_o the_o whole_a country_n will_v subscribe_v to_o the_o truth_n of_o yet_o it_o will_v be_v take_v to_o be_v very_o impossible_a with_o many_o especial_o those_o which_o have_v not_o see_v it_o and_o if_o report_v the_o advantage_n to_o be_v less_o it_o be_v a_o detraction_n and_o though_o i_o shall_v then_o speak_v the_o truth_n yet_o it_o be_v not_o all_o the_o truth_n i_o be_o resolve_v to_o speak_v within_o compass_n and_o if_o i_o err_v it_o shall_v be_v on_o the_o safe_a hand_n and_o herein_o i_o shall_v be_v the_o soon_o pardon_v the_o first_o sort_n of_o land_n it_o be_v dry_a gravelly_a and_o lime_v suppose_v it_o to_o be_v in_o

piece_n of_o clever_n which_o amount_v to_o more_o than_o i_o have_v mention_v and_o i_o know_v the_o benefit_n in_o some_o part_n will_v be_v very_o great_a where_o grass_n be_v much_o want_v especial_o in_o the_o midst_n of_o summer_n when_o all_o other_o grass_n be_v burn_v up_o so_o far_o as_o i_o can_v understand_v the_o nature_n of_o this_o plant_n it_o seem_v to_o be_v design_v on_o purpose_n for_o those_o country_n where_o natural_a grass_n be_v want_v and_o for_o a_o supply_n where_o the_o sun_n have_v burn_v up_o their_o grass_n in_o the_o midst_n of_o summer_n for_o as_o the_o land_n in_o those_o part_n be_v fit_a for_o clover_n bear_v little_a natural_a grass_n so_o clover_n be_v fit_a for_o those_o land_n which_o indeed_o be_v the_o best_a improvement_n can_v be_v make_v of_o they_o there_o be_v a_o gentleman_n sheriff_n gentleman_n sir_n john_n winford_n late_o high_a sheriff_n my_o neighbour_n that_o have_v about_o sixty_o acre_n and_o i_o know_v of_o

stafford-shire_n or_o shrop-shire_n i_o sow_v about_o sixteen_o acre_n with_o barley_n and_o after_o my_o barley_n i_o have_v about_o michaelmas_n a_o great_a after-math_a into_o which_o i_o turn_v by_o way_n of_o tack_v about_o forty_o hog_n at_o six_o penny_n per_fw-la the_o week_n and_o for_o that_o time_n i_o have_v about_o four_o pound_n ten_o shilling_n for_o tack_v of_o swine_n which_o i_o think_v be_v pretty_a well_o for_o a_o after-math_a and_o take_v my_o land_n to_o be_v much_o better_v by_o the_o dung_n of_o so_o many_o pig_n have_v i_o let_v this_o land_n lie_v to_o bear_v natural_a grass_n it_o will_v not_o have_v bring_v i_o five_o pound_n in_o the_o two_o first_o year_n and_o as_o to_o bear_v corn_n it_o will_v not_o any_o long_o to_o any_o advantage_n be_v wear_v

of_o this_o husbandry_n yourself_o if_o the_o after-math_a in_o the_o first_o quarter_n after_o the_o barley_n be_v cut_v yield_v such_o advantage_n you_o may_v guess_v what_o the_o next_o year_n
