The clifton park system of farming, by robert hbeside a photographic illustration (plate 1) of 'the seeds used in laying down land to grass on the clifton park system'Â one comes across a wonderfully poetic list of grasses" it may be worth noting that regenerative farming of the kind recommended in these pages is currently making a comebackapparently "elliot developed a system of laying down land to grass, dependent on little input except a complex mixture of deep-rooting pasture seedsindeed the board of agriculture and the newly formed agricultural colleges were supporting the 'fertilizer and feeding stuff'Â approach to farming, which in elliot's view would be largely unnecessary under a rational system of grassland managementwho can resist names such as 'italian ryegrass', 'tufted hair grass'Â 'mountain hair grass', or 'yorkshire fog'? or, after turning to the index, these names of fields (all from clifton park): 'alghope', 'bowmont side', 'hayhope shank', 'longshot'Â and 'stackyard'? or this entry: 'sheep, death from swallowing grit'Â ? anyone who has a deep and abiding love of our northern borderlands (still largely devoted to sheep-farming) will want to read this insightful and informative little book about tried and tested methods of farming, both traditional and modern, in the hill country of roxburghshirebrett'Â purchased it in foyles inthe pasture would be turned under after four to eight years, row crops grown until the humus levels declined to a threatening level, and then the field would be restored to grass/clover/herbal mixtures'effect of turnips on'Â etcthis volume's owner, one 'jforeword by sir rbut don't be fooled: this is an extremely practical book, which is why it remained in print for so many decadesthis is how one online source describes it: "the interest of the book to present-day readers lies not so much in the detailed methods adopted by elliot in the field, but rather in light shed on the agricultural problems of the closing years of the nineteenth century and the picture it gives of a man of highly independent mind striving to influence his fellow farmers with rather less than no support from official sourcesbetween pages 52 and 53 he left interleaved an advertisement for 'stabilarsan veterinary for the treatment of blackhead in turkeys'Â (this is an example of the sort of casual ephemera that sets my own pulses racing): which suggests he was a proper farmer himself, and not just someone who approved of literary allusionspoor jacket, book in good conditionthis may be an unfair observation, but there can surely be few modern manuals on agricultural matters that quote both milton and confucius within the first few pagesfold-out map in rearoriginal dust-jacket (badly torn but still intact)maroon cloth boards" see oxfam website for delivery information read moregeorge stapledon
