Bat on meet of the beet or meet extensively culti-
vated farms in the Fylde, the land is nearly all in
tillage. Several of them are cultivated by Sootehmen
from Best Lothian and Berwickshire ; but I have not
the rube details within Nash.
In the Bari district, to which Lord Stanley more
'spatially directed his observations in hie letter assert-
lag that he is still a protectionist, mope are grown
both goad and indifferent. The following quotatiem
from a work entitled the "Agriculture of Liam-
shire," by Mr. Ibthwell, of Winwick, a gentleman
long experience, proves that means to fertilise the
labs abet Bay have bean long within the
et practical man, sad that if they meek
in a ellestet nature, undrained, full of water, and is-
ferWet as Lord Stanley *Mum, the cause is probably
to De kind in the fact that all the tenants (except
reansfeeturers who hold an buildintleasee);am testate
at will, who bare been shifted year after year, or
living under perpetual notice to quit, for a number of
years. It would indeed be 'uprising it they had
bonadusted and drained their piton lands, uprooted
the old hedges and planted new. In Mr. Rothwell's
book relative to boas dust, it is said:

" This manure was find used in this county about
seventy years ago by a Mr. Mayon, in the township
of Ashworth, near Rochdale. He used it very o:Un-
manly on a high-lying, stroarsoiled undulated farm,
aid applied it entirely to gram land. The
effect in this instenoe was astonishing. I can recol-
lect, when a boy, twenty rare after the application,
seeing the land always green, both winter and
sommer, if the snow was off the land. Since
then the land has been manured by the grand-
son of the improver, whom morals bad been
ruined by the extraordinary profit derived from
the bodied land f' (Ic is to be feared they had
not been well-grounded.) •He soon began to draw
largely from his bank the land. The sums which he
drew from it in the shape of corn ard hay crops,
without making any fresh deposits, were only aston-
ishing. Some fields he cropped with oats ten or
neare years in sueemodon, and the latter owe were
very fair crops. One field which had been cropped
more than the rest I walked over when the last crop
was in reaping, and I maid not tell whether there
was more thistles or corn stalks; bat, taking both
together, there was a thick set crop of from five to
six feet high.'

Ashworth township is not far from Bury and quite
within the district of the new agricultural sootily.
It Hsu higher than the farm land generally, and I
believe bee no superiority of soil to the °natty
around it, yet it would seem to be productive of
cats on very cheep conditions, it sensibly treated.
Putting', however, or gran for indoor feeding, or
root crops be the winter see of eamner pestered
eagle are more profitable than oats, even corn-law
protected oats. Astor wheat, Lord Stanley is quite
Garnet in pronouncing the situation to be against it.
The altitude, and the humidity of the climate ere un-
favoarable. Milk farming pays best in this district,
at least with men of small capital. But good drain-
age and liberal manuring to be dream& only on a
securely held tenancy would improve the income
from a milk farm as well as any other. As a few par-
ticulars of: the milk commeroe of this part of Lan-
cashire may be interesting, together with the manner
otkeeplng the cows, a system essentially different
from that of London, I shall lay them before you
in future examanication.
