Notes

"There is not only a discrepance in the opinions of those Authors on many of the most important operations of Agriculture; but that this arises from their inferences and conclusions being erroneous; and their principles unfounded, or inapplicable; and particularly on the subject of breeding, and the nature, preparation, and application of manures. And also of the rust or black blight in wheat; of which the true cause and its prevention are here explained. "
