Publisher's Synopsis
Excerpt from The Elements of Chemistry: As Applied to Agriculture
The importance of placing before the youth in our schools, as well as in the hands of our farmers at their homes, the means of acquiring a knowledge of the elements of the science and art of agriculture, has long been acknowledged by teachers and others.
Such means have already been available to those who had acquired a limited knowledge of chemistry; but the most valuable works, containing the facts most useful to the practical farmer, have been too voluminous and expensive for his own use and means, or too technical for the use of his sons while in the common schools.
