THE PUBLISHED WRITINGS OF DR. FLETCHER. 



Compiled by Arthur Gibson and Herbert Groh. 



In the preparation of the following list of writings of the 

 late Dr. James Fletcher, the compilers have met with many 

 difficulties. The author had kept no list of his publications, 

 and search had to be made in many quarters. The list cannot 

 be considered by any means a complete one. Such a list is 

 impossible, owing to the many agricultural and other papers 

 to which he sent material for publication. In the Montreal 

 Family Herald and Weekly Star, in his Farmers 'Friends and Foes 

 column, which began in 1896, he has contributed replies to 

 hundreds of. enquiries, on a great variety of subjects. A list 

 of these could be added but it has been thought better to omit 

 them here.
