The Gentleman farmer ; or, Certain observations made by an English gentleman, upon the husbandry of Flanders; and the same compared with that of England. Wherein upon a careful examination of the soils of each country, and from some new experiments made in our own agriculture, it is demonstrated, that a younger brother, with only five hundred pounds, laid out as directed, shall be able to spend more than his elder brother, who has a thousand pounds a year; and so for any sum, in a less, or, greater proportion. Also a certain method of improving meadow grounds, from forty shillings to six pounds an acre, by fish-ponds. Written by a person of honour in the county of Norfolk.
