Enlarging a Farm Without Buying Land
An 19th century agricultural column urges farmers to expand by improving soil rather than purchasing acres. It compares British farming to Ohio, notes many owners mistake farm depth, and describes cases of fake abundance like the Washington Excelsior strawberry. It also cites Duke of Newcastle’s water meadows transformed to productive fodder with drainage and restocking.
