he found " the soil more to be commended than the management," vibram five fingers and observed only one piece of fallow in the 3000 acres. He relates that forty successive white-straw crops had been taken without manure ; and sums up the rotations as follows :^^" Wheat, beans, barley, oats, bailey; oats, then wheat again; and the same course repeated for twenty years, or rather from time out of mind." vibram fivefingers The marsh presents a very different appearance now. About 1,000 acres have since that period been reclaimed from the sea, which is now some of the best land in the level. Several Englishmen have taken large holdings here, and are farming well. They all commence their rotation with a white-straw crop, then barley, then turnips, and afterwards spring wheat or barley; if the former, they generally take a fifth crop before the seeds are sown, but this depends on the state of the land. Beans are sown ovgr a considerable area, and very good crops are raised. vibram five fingers sale When the land is laid down to grass it produces most superior pasturage, and one of the best oxen ever slaughtered in this part of the country was grazed here last year.The neighbourhood of Kidwelly ought not skechers shape ups to be passed by without some notice of its improved agriculture. The cropping of this tract in 1816 was mentioned as—1. Wheat, on limed fallow; 2. Barley; 3. Oats; 4. Barley, or the pat-stubble manured and sown with 4. Wheat; then 5. Barley; or without clover, to rest vibram five fingers shoes from labour 5 years. There are several enterprising farmers who now pursue the following and similar rotations:—Ley taken up and sown with oats, then cleaned with turnips, which are mostly eaten off by the sheep, then barley five fingers shoes or spring wheat, and the last crop either barley or oats, with seeds. This mode is found to answer exceedingly well. Irrigating the pastures is here common; indeed all through the coal-fields the numerous springs or small streams are made to flow over the saturated clayey ground, which produces coarse inferior grass and, being undrained, plenty of rush. Below Kidwelly are extensive salt-marshes; nearer Swansea may be seen some successful instances vibram five fingers kso of thorough draining the stiff clays of the coal-measures. This is generally performed by the landlord; but there are a few spirited tenants with twenty-one years' leases, who have tile-drained their farms, and the general rotation of crops that they practise is oats on ley, turnips, then barley with grass-seeds. Few sheep are kept in the western parts of Carmarthen ; and the cattle are housed in the winter, as the land is so wet, that the stock could not select a dry spot to lie down on. The yearlings, steers, cows, &c, are all tied up in sheds; some receive a portion of hay, but they often subsist entirely on
