The ancient process has gone on since then, although even yet thereforests <strong>of</strong> Leithen, Traquair and Ettrick, and a vast are small holdings in all parts <strong>of</strong> the shire. Accordingextent <strong>of</strong> copses in the centre, W and N, formerly to the returns <strong>of</strong> 1881, there were 34 farms <strong>of</strong> 1000adorned and sheltered nearly all Tweeddale, protecting acres or more ; 26 between 500 and 1000 ; 65 betweenthe pasturage and encouraging agriculture. So early as 100 and 500 ; and 45 between 5 and 100 acres. Chambers,writing in 1864, says that rents are generally fromthe reign <strong>of</strong> David I. this woodland district was dottedwith the parks <strong>of</strong> manors <strong>of</strong> princes and barons, and £250 to £800, though in some instances upwards <strong>of</strong>the granges and churches <strong>of</strong> monks, and with mills and £1000 is paid. The general average per acre he puts atkilns and brew houses. Farming and grazing flourished, 32s. or 33s. per acre, except in the neighbourhood <strong>of</strong>corn was raised in abundance, dairies and orchards were towns or villages, where as much as £4 per acre is paid.numerous. This time <strong>of</strong> prosperity lasted for about two Leases are generally for 19 years, rarely for 21 or anycenturies from 1097 ; but it was followed by 400 years other number <strong>of</strong> years, except in the case <strong>of</strong> sheepfarms,which are let on leases <strong>of</strong> from 9 to 15 years.<strong>of</strong> retrogression and wretchedness, in which the demolition<strong>of</strong> the natural protection <strong>of</strong> the woods was one <strong>of</strong> The most common rotation, according to the samethe first and most fatal steps. Dr Pennicuik, who authority, is a five years' one :—(1) Oats after lea ; (2)published his well-known Description <strong>of</strong> Tweeddale in potatoes, turnips, or other green crops ; (3) baidey, oats,1715, saw the work <strong>of</strong> renovation commence ; and he or wheat ; (4) grass, for hay or pasture ; (5) grass, aspraised the young landowners for beginning to form pasture. Hinds or married ploughmen receive fromplantations, which, as he foresaw, have enriched as well £13 to £15 in money, together with various perquisites,as embellished the country to the present day. The such as a cow's keep, 65 stones <strong>of</strong> oatmeal, a month'srural population, though industrious enough, were ' yet food during harvest, etc. A grieve receives about £24 insomething artful, stubborn, and tenacious <strong>of</strong> oldcustoms. There are,' Pennicuik goes on, 'amongstthem that will not suffer the wrack to be taken out <strong>of</strong>their land, because (say they) it keeps the corn warm,nor sow their bear-seed, be the season wet or dry, tillthe first week <strong>of</strong> May be over, which they call Eimchieweek, nor plant trees nor hedges, for wronging theundergrowth, and sheltering the birds <strong>of</strong> the air todestroy their corn ; neither will they trench and ditcha piece <strong>of</strong> useless boggy ground, for fear <strong>of</strong> the loss <strong>of</strong>5 or 6 feet <strong>of</strong> grass, for a far greater increase ; which,however, with a custom they have <strong>of</strong> overlaying [overstocking]the ground, which they term full blemishinrj,makes their cattle generally lean, little, and give a meanprice in a market.' In 1830, Archibald, Earl <strong>of</strong>Islay, afterwards third Duke <strong>of</strong> Argyll, began hisfamous attempt to reclaim a piece <strong>of</strong> boggy ground(which he appropriately rechristened as Whim) bydraining and planting ; and about the same time SirAlexander Murray <strong>of</strong> Stanhope raised his plantationsand wrote his tracts on agricultural matters ; while thedesire for improvements gradually spread among otherproprietors in the county. The agricultural history <strong>of</strong>Peeblesshire has been written by Rev. Charles Findlaterin 1802, who chronicles the successive steps in theadvance. About 1763 or 1764 Mr George Dalziel, innkeeper,first at Linton and then at Noblehouse, was thefirst who sowed turnip in the open fields ; while MrJames Macdougal, a small farmer <strong>of</strong> Linton, originallyfrom the neighbourhood <strong>of</strong> Kelso, was, in 1778, the firstperson to introduce the rotation <strong>of</strong> cropping, the cultivation<strong>of</strong> turnips for the use <strong>of</strong> sheep, the growing <strong>of</strong>potatoes in the open fields, and some other reforms.Till 1750 grain used to be winnowed by the wind onhill tops ; but about that date fanners were introduced.The flail had almost disappeared by 1832, its place beingtaken by thrashing-mills, worked by water or horsepower.A very considerable impetus was given toagriculture in 1788, by the security <strong>of</strong> tenure introducedby the Earl <strong>of</strong> March, who gave long leases <strong>of</strong> 57 years.The tenants were encouraged to erect better farm buildings,and to lay out more labour and capital in clearing,enclosing, and improving the land ; and although,ultimately in 1821, the leases were reduced by theHouse <strong>of</strong> Lords as incompetent on an entailed estate,the advantages were not wholly allowed to disappear.During the present century the farmers and landowners<strong>of</strong> Peeblesshire have made steady progress ;and in proportionto its natural capacities, Tweeddale rivals evenHaddingtonshire itself in the enlightened methods andskill <strong>of</strong> its agriculturists. The introduction <strong>of</strong> guanoand other light fertilizers has enabled cultivation to be170money. Young men living with the farmer receive £18to £20 ; boys, up to £8 a year ; female servants, from£8 to £10. The bothy system <strong>of</strong> lodging farm labourersis unknown in the county ; but the bondager systemprevails to a certain extent. The following tableindicates the principal crops, and the acreage undereach in various years :1867. 1873. 1874. 1880.Barley, .... 1,415 1764 1,8811,3181882.1,183Oats 9,000 9561 9,319 9,057 9,263Pease 146 26 28 6 73Turnips, .... 5,297 5775 5,144 4,820 4,748Potatoes, 616 690 626 1,006 671Cabbage, etc.. 94 286 380 268 333Other Green Crops, 159 127 134 151 135Bare Fallow, . 137 91 4Grass, Permanent Pasture, 13,616 10,371 11,297 13,977Grass in Rotation,11,733 13,001 13,995 12,044In 1874 there were 9041 acres under plantation ; in 1882,10,177. Market gardens and nursery grounds occupiedonly 7 acres in 1882.The following table shows the quantity <strong>of</strong> farm stockat various dates :Horses,Cattle,Sheep, .Pigs, . .1867. 1874. 18S0. 1882.4,968180,7961,1749166,533201,2599551,1846,934199,5127198926,643189,753872In Peeblesshire, as may be inferred from the precedingstatistics, as well as from the nature <strong>of</strong> the surface,sheep-farming is a highly important industry. Inmany cases, arable farming is combined with it by thesame farmer, but the hills in Tweedsmuir near theupper course <strong>of</strong> the Tweed, and those flanking thevalleys <strong>of</strong> the Leithen, Manor, and Megget, are too highfor agriculture, and are entirely devoted to sheeppasturing.This industry had already begun to be <strong>of</strong>importance in Peeblesshire in the beginning <strong>of</strong> the 17thcentury. In the short account <strong>of</strong> the county whichappeared in 1654, along with Timothy Pont's Map inBlaew's Atlas, mention is made <strong>of</strong> the good and wholesomepasturage for sheep to be found, especially in theS next Selkirkshire ; and Pennicuik, in 1715, mentionsthat the county is ' stored with such numbers <strong>of</strong>sheep that in the Lintoun mercats, which are keptevery Wednesday during the months <strong>of</strong> June and July,there have frequently been seen 9000 in the customer's
;FEEBLESSHIBEPEEBLESSHIREroll, and most <strong>of</strong> all these sold and vented in one day.'The introduction <strong>of</strong> turnip growing on a large scaledoubtless encouraged the keeping <strong>of</strong> sheep, during the18th century, which has very much developed in thepresent century. The Cheviot breed predominatesgenerally ; but in the more exposed and inclement landsthe Black-faced breed is found to be hardier. In someparts a cross between one <strong>of</strong> these breeds and theLeicester breed is found suitable. Linton market ceasedto be held in 1856 ; Melrose, Lanark, and Lockerbie arenow the chief marts for the Peeblesshire ilock-masters.Sheep-farms are let on leases generally from 9 to 15years ; the rent is usually calculated according to theniunber <strong>of</strong> sheep a farm can support, and the kind <strong>of</strong>sheep is also taken into account, with their estimatedvalue and productiveness. Kents thus vary from 5s. to10s. and even 12s. per sheep. Shepherds are sometimespaid in the same manner as hinds, receiving about £20in money, besides perquisites ; but in most cases hereceives no money, but is entitled to the proceeds froma certain number <strong>of</strong> sheep, known as the shepherd's'pack,' which feed along with his master's flock. TheTeeswater or other short-horn black cattle are kept forgi'azing and stock purposes ; while the Ayrshire breedis preferred for dairy purposes, to which most attentionis given in the northern parishes. The horses arechiefly <strong>of</strong> the Clydesdale breed. Pigs and poultry aretolerably ubiquitous ; and bees are kept, chiefly in thelower parts <strong>of</strong> the county.The manufacturing industries <strong>of</strong> Peeblesshire arewholly centred in a few towns and villages, in spite <strong>of</strong>the abundant water power and other natural advantages<strong>of</strong> the county. The woollen manufactm'e, carried onchiefly at Innerleithen, Walkerbfkn, and Peebles,is the chief staple, and employed 1459 hands in 1881.Other industries are referred to in our articles on theseplaces, and Broughton, Carlops, and Linton. Thecommerce <strong>of</strong> the county restricts itself to the export <strong>of</strong>the produce <strong>of</strong> the sheep, arable, and dairy farms ; andimport and retail <strong>of</strong> the small amount <strong>of</strong> goods requiredfor local consumption. There is some coal mining inthe northern parishes, chiefly near Carlops ; slate andother quarries have been already referred to.Bailways and Roads.—The county is very well providedwith means <strong>of</strong> communication. A branch <strong>of</strong> theNorth British railway enters it at Leadburn Junctionin the N, passes Eddleston station before reachingPeebles, where it turns eastwards along the Tweed,passing Cardrona and Innerleithen stations before itenters Selkirkshire, where it joins the main line atGalashiels. Another line from the Caledonian stationat Symington crosses the W boundary about the middle,and follows the course <strong>of</strong> the Biggar Water and Tweedto Peebles, passing Broughton, Lyne, and Stobo stations.A shorter reach <strong>of</strong> the North British railwaybranches oS' at Leadburn towards the W, and runsthrough the northern part <strong>of</strong> the county, past thestations <strong>of</strong> Lamancha, Maebie Hill, and Broomlee, andjoins the Caledonian line at Carstairs. In spite <strong>of</strong> thehUly nature <strong>of</strong> the county, good roads are tolerablyplentiful,except in the mountainous and rough districtsto the S <strong>of</strong> the Tweed, where there are only roughtracks. The high road from Edinburgh enters Peeblesshireat Leadburn, and runs directly S alongside therailway and Eddleston Water to Peebles ; thence aroad runs down Tweeddale, through Innerleithen andWalkerburn, into Selkirkshire ; while a second proceedsup the valleys <strong>of</strong> the Tweed and Biggar Water, throughBroughton, and thence to Glasgow vid Biggar, throwing<strong>of</strong>f,near Lyne church, another branch, which runsup part <strong>of</strong> the Lyne and Tarth Waters and throughKirkurd parish, and thence also to Glasgow. A thirdroad from Peebles runs S along the course <strong>of</strong> the ManorWater to Megget and St Mary's Loch. A road fromEdinburgh to Dumfries enters the county at Leadburn,runs SW to Kirkurd, where it is joined by another roadentering the county at Carlops, and thence proceedsthrough the western part <strong>of</strong> the shire parallel to thehead waters <strong>of</strong> the Tweed, till it leaves Peeblesshire inthe extreme S <strong>of</strong> Tweedsmuir parish. Another branch<strong>of</strong> the Carlops road turns more to the W at Linton, andenters Lanarkshire at Kippis, whence it proceeds toDumfries vid Biggar and M<strong>of</strong>fat. Most <strong>of</strong> the largerriver-valleys, as those <strong>of</strong> the Lyne, Leithen, Quair, etc.,are traversed by shorter roads connecting with one ormore <strong>of</strong> these main arteries <strong>of</strong> traflBc. A turnpike roadruns along the S bank <strong>of</strong> the Tweed to Traquair, andthence on into Selkirkshire. A mountain track, whichstrikes <strong>of</strong>f near Traquair, and passes over the summit <strong>of</strong>Minchmoor, was at one time an important thoroughfarebetween Peebles and Selkirk, and was the route bywhich the Marquis <strong>of</strong> Montrose fled after the battle <strong>of</strong>Philiphaugh. Another mountain track in the S, traceablefrom the neighbourhood <strong>of</strong> Drummelzier over theleft shoulder <strong>of</strong> Dollar Law, and along part <strong>of</strong> CraigierBurn, is called The Thief ' s Road,' from having been acommon route <strong>of</strong> the Border forayers. It is sometimesalso called the ' King's Road,' because James V. is saidto have gone by it to execute justice on the notoriousCockburn <strong>of</strong> Henderland.The only towns are Peebles and Innerleithen ; theonly villages with more than 400 inhabitants areWalkerburn (1026) and Linton (434). The remainingchief villages are, in order roughly from N to S, Carlops,Eddleston, Skirling, Broughton, and Drummelzier.The chief seats are 'Traquair House, The Glen, CardronaHouse, Kailzie House, Glenormiston, Holylee, Venlaw,Kerfield House, Kingsraeadows, Portmore, Darnhall,Cringletie, Medwyn House, Garvald House, Spitalhaugh,Bordland House, Callands, Scotston, RomannoHouse, Castle Craig, Netherurd, Kachan House, Mossfennan,Glencotho, Stobo Castle, Barns, Hallyards,Drummelzier House, Dawick House, Whim, Polmood,Quarter, Cairnmuir, Lamancha, Jlacbie Hill, Pirn,Hartree, Badlieu, Leithen Lodge, Logan, Braxfield,Fingland, Wiukston, and Halmyre. According toMiscellaneous Statistics <strong>of</strong> the United Kingdom (1879)232,410 acres, with a total gross estimated rental <strong>of</strong>£142,614, were divided among 699 proprietors; oneholding 41,247 acres (rental £14,316), five together68,586 (£22,190), six 45,388 (£21,102), sixteen 50,848(£24,337), twelve 16,633 (£8945), seven 5140 (£4091),etc. Peeblesshire is governed by a lord-Ueutenant, avice-lieutenant, a convener, 14 deputy-lieutenants, asheriff, a sheriff-substitute, and 52 justices <strong>of</strong> the peace.The meetings <strong>of</strong> the sheriff court are noted in our articlePeebles. The police force in 1884 consisted <strong>of</strong> 10 men,and a chief constable with a salary <strong>of</strong> £200. Peeblesshireand Selkukshire together have one representativein parliament. The county constituency in 1883-84 was980. Heritable property in the county has advancedvery much in value along with the advance in the generalprosperity. According to the valuation made in thereign <strong>of</strong> Alexander III., and known as the Old Extent,the annual rental <strong>of</strong> lands in Peeblesshire was £1274,but by the destructive wars <strong>of</strong> succession that wasreduced to £863 in 1368. In 1657 the assessed annualrental had again risen to £4328 ; in 1S02 it was estimatedat £26,000 ; and in 1863 (exclusive <strong>of</strong> burghsand railways) it was £90,927 ; in 1876 (also exclusive)it was £115,162; and in 1883-84 £118,260; railways£24,718; Edinburgh District Water Works, £1139.Peebles is one <strong>of</strong> the least densely populated <strong>of</strong> Scottishcounties, having only 39 persons to the square milethe average for the entire country being 125. Ross andCromarty, Argyll, Inverness, and Sutherland, alonehave a scantier population. Pop. (1801) 8735, (1811)9935, (1821) 10,046, (1831) 10,578, (1841) 10,499,(1851) 10,738, (1861) 11,408, (1871) 12,330, and (1881)13,822, <strong>of</strong> whom 7196 were females, 108-6 to every 100males. Only 3 persons, or "02 <strong>of</strong> the population, wereGaelic-speaking. Separate families 2953. Houses (1881)occupied 2696, vacant 247, building 45.There are sixteen quoad civilia parishes in Peeblesshire,viz., Linton, Newlands, Lyne with Megget,Eddleston, Peebles, Innerleithen, Traquair, Manor,Stobo, Kirkurd, Skirling, Broughton, Kilbucho, Glenholm,Drummelzier, and Tweedsmuir.
