A practical treatise on draining bogs and swampy grounds, illustrated by figures; with cursory remarks upon the originality of Mr. Elkington's mode of draining. : To which are added, directions for making a new kind of strong, cheap, and durable fence, for rich lands; for erecting, at little expense, mill-dams, or weirs upon rivers, that shall be alike firm and durable; for effectually guarding against encroachments by the sea upon the land, and for gradually raising drowned fens, into sound grass-lands. As also, disquisitions concerning the different breeds of sheep, and other domestic animals; being the principal additions that have been made to the fourth edition of Essays relating to agriculture and rural affairs; published separately, for the accommodation of the purchasers of the former editions of this work. /
