To quickly assess the difficulty of the text, read a short excerpt:
John Read, of Regent Circus.
In the Farmer's Calendar, 1827, Arthur Young estimates the cost of a new hop garden will range from £80 to £90 per acre for the first year, whilst the annual expenses subsequently will amount to £30 to £40 per acre. The same writer points out that small hop-gardens do not thrive so well as large, and that it is desirable that hops should be grown near a populous neighbourhood in order that sufficient hands may be procurable during the hop-picking season.
He adds : "... There is one situation in which it may be prudent to plant. He who possesses a bog, especially a flat, deep bog in a sheltered spot, and yet not too confined, may very profitably convert it into a hop-ground. A solid, weighty peat-bog makes an excellent hop soil when laid into beds b_y transverse trenches. Such land is a natural dung-hill, and will demand such manures as may perhaps be easily procured. Here the chances are favourable. If such a spot be not chosen, the best preparation of the land for hops is two successive crops of turnips or cabbages both fed on the land by sheep, and off early enough for ploughing and planting the land in March.
