October:
Arable Farm:
Wheat-sowing is one of the principal operations of the month. Clover and bean stubbles having been ploughed are ready for the seed, which should be "pickled" before sowing. It is well to use the fork to dig out patches of couch, either before ploughing or during the process. Five or six pecks of seed per acre suffice.
