Title The English improover, or A new survey of husbandry
Remainder of title Discovering to the kingdome, that some land, both arrable and pasture, may be advanced double or treeble; other land to a five or tenfold: and some to a twenty fold improvement: yea, some now not worth above one, or tw shillings per acre, be made worth thirty, or forty, if not more. Clearly demonstrated from principles of sound reason, ingenuity, and late, but most certaine reall experiences. Held forth under six peeces of improvement. Viz. 1. By floating or watering such lands as are capable thereof. 2. By reducing boggy or drowned land to sound pasture. 3. By such a way of ploughing and corneing old courser pasture, as not to impoverish it; and by such a method of enclosure, as shall provide for poore. And all interests without depopulation. 4. By discovering divers materials for soyle and compost, with the nature and use of them, as both tillage and pasture be advanced as high as promised. 5. By such a new plantation of divers sorts of woods, as in two years, they shall rise more than in forty years naturally. 6. By a more moderate improvement of other sorts of lands, according to their capacities they lye under, by more common experience. By Walter Blith a lover of ingenuity
