a Kent; the soils being less powerful, than' a} the coomb-on-rock lands of Maidstone.: It is observable that, here(as in Here-. fordshire, where the plow is in use) many| i plantations are set out in ROWS;—not in b squares, or regularly aquincunx; the width| t of the intervals, or the distance between the

rows, being seven or eight feet; the dis-| tance between the hills, in the rows, about| four feet. This gives more room for the subplows and harrows, that are in use, here, peer as in West Kent,—as well as a better op-

x portunity of cropping the intervals,—than th is permitted by regular spaces.| 1

MANURES. These are the same, here, een

as in West Kent. Compost is every where Fag

preparing, in the autymnal months. And. Be

WOOLEN RAGS are much in use.: fee The POLES are shorter, and generally bt of a worse quality, in this, than in the west-|

ern parts of the county. The practice of ar

planting coppices, with woods proper for oe this purpose, does not appear to have got a ae footing, here. The poles, in general, stand Jean from ten to fifteen feet above the ground. eee

Their lengths, of course, run from twelve to seventeen or eighteen feet.-- ae
