(3) It is propoſed, for the ſake of making ſuch ſurveys as caſy as poſ- ſible, that each perſon, who may undertake them, ſhall have a diſtrict that may be gone Over in five or ſix weeks: fo that it may be under-

taken by thoſe, who have a good deal of buſimneſs of their own, with- out much inconvenience. Thus alſo the Board, will have a greater variety of information, and a greater maſs of inſtructive obſerva ations, from a greater number of intelligent men, for their confideration and guidance.

It is farther propoſed, that the reports received by the Board, ſhall firſt be circulated as much as pPoſſible, in the counties to which they relate, for the benefit of receiving the obſervations, and 4 dditional remarks of every Farmer and Gentleman in the diſtricct. From the information thus accumulated, a complete ſtate of its Agriculture will be drawn up and pubji iihed; copies of which will be preſented by the Board, to every individual, who may have favoured them with his aſſiſtance.

The Board can only make an allowance, at the rate of 5 1. per week, for the expence of ſuch a tour. Indeed ſome Gentlemen with great public zeal, and much to their credit, have undertaken to ſurv ey ſeveral diſtriets gratuitouſly. But that is not always to be expected, Parti- cularly from Profeſſlonal r men. The payment of their expenc S they are well intitled to expect, if they give their time and trouble for nothing. Profit, however, muſt not be the o object of thoſe who un- dertake fuch an employment; nor could ſuch a Board wiſh to be concerned with any one, who would not willingly make ſome ſacri- fices for the public good, and indeed who would not take a pride in having any fhare in promoting ſo uſeful an undertaking.
