The cultivation of oats, potatoes, and turnips is well AGRICULTURE 53 distributed over the county. Only a few acres are given to rye and beans. The county does not, hke Aberdeenshire and Forfar- shire, possess any distinctive breed of cattle ; but... among the early improvers of cattle breeds were several notable Mearns men ; and to-day the Burn and the Portlethen herds are well known to agriculturists.
