Publisher's Synopsis

Excerpt from The English Land

The modern system of farming, properly carried out, requires considerable capital, varying in amount according to the nature of the land occupied and the live stock it is capable of carrying. Large purchases have annually to be made of Oil-cake, corn, and other feeding stuffs, for producing beef and mutton costly manures have to be bought for raising roots and green crops to be consumed by the animals. The money expended on these substances often amounts to more than the rent of the farm. Then there is the purchase and maintenance of expensive machinery, and above all the labour bill, which Often exceeds in amount the rent paid.
