The calculation resulting from these data show

In Spring 778 days’ work in 50 days =. ¾⁸ = 15⅜ horses
In Summer 1073 ditto „ 70 „ — = 15₁³₀ ditto.

In Autumn 807 ditto „ 55 „ = ⁸⅛⁷ = 14₁⁶θ ditto.

The above rotations are supported with 33 cwt. per
morgen of horse and cow dung, which are carted out in
149 days by two-horse carts, at 120 cwt daily.

Caiting and Spreading Manuie.—Thecontractfor
manure at the Steinberg vineyard is 12 florins (1Z. ster-
