manuring

The town gardener should keep his ground in a good state by frequent light manuring.

In March prepare the ground, by breaking it up well, and richly manuring it.

Instead of this, land may not only be kept up with proper manuring, but made to yield larger crops from year to year.

Lands will not produce two successive crops without manuring and ploughing.

Of roots, turnips, carrots and mangolds are widely cultivated, heavy crops being obtained by early sowing and rich manuring.
