If the pitch is naturally a clay one, it might be sufficient to use water only, and roll at the same time; but for renovating a worn clay pitch, a little strong loamy soil, washed in with water and rolled down will fill up all the "chinks" and holes. It will make an old pitch as good as new.
"You wouldn't want to make a mistake would you?" Crown rose to that. "Why? What do you know specially?" "Well, not so much, maybe. But it's worth thinking about. I'll give you the facts confidentially, of course. Hub Hill's about a hundred yards from this house, on the road to Washington. When automobiles sink into it hub-deep, they come out with a lot of mud on their wheels black, loamy mud.
The smallest Swallow, only five inches long. Upper parts dusty brown, darker on the wings, and tail forked a little, like the Tree Swallow's. Under parts white, with a brown band across the breast. Song a sort of giggle like some little girl's we know. Nests many together in holes in a clay or loamy bank, lined with feathers and straw. Eggs pure white.

Soon he rose out of the valley, and skirted a high plateau of the chalk formation on his right, which rested abruptly upon the fruity district of loamy clay, the character and herbage of the two formations being so distinct that the calcareous upland appeared but as a deposit of a few years' antiquity upon the level vale.
