Excerpt from Practical Farming and Grazing: With Observations on the Breeding and Feeding of Sheep and Cattle, on Rents and Tithes, on the Maintenance and Employment of Agricultural Labourers, on the Poor Law Amendment Act, and on Other Subjects Connected With AgriculturePersons who saw the farm of a great writer on agriculture five-and-thirty years ago, reported that it was kept in a most slovenly manner. The writer of this pamphlet is desirous that those whom chance may bring near his farm should see whe ther his practice corresponds with his recommendations. He is well aware that he cannot show on his farm such perfectly straight lines of ploughing, drilling, and ridging, as are to be seen in Norfolk. The fact is he never had a first-rate ploughman, and being likely to keep on the same men he has had many years, he now doubts whether he ever shall be able to show perfectly straight lines of ploughing, drill ing, and ridging.About the PublisherForgotten Books publishes hundreds of thousands of rare and classic books.
