426 APPENDIX I. 



Weston (Seb Richard). 



A Discours of Husbandrie used in Brabant and Flanders. 1645. 



[This treatise, left in manuscript by Weston to his sons as a Legacy, 

 was piratically printed by Samuel Hartlib in 1650. The date of publica- 

 tion is given as 1605 ; but from Hartlib 's unctuous dedication of the 

 work to " The Right Honorable the Council of State," that date is 

 obviously wrong. The title-page runs as follows : A Discours of Husband- 

 rie used in Brabant and Flanders ; shewing the wonderfull improvement of 

 Land there ; and serving as a pattern for our practice in this COMMON- 

 WEALTH. London, Printed by William Du-Gard, Anno Dom. 1605. 

 Harthb republished the Discourse in the following year as His Legacie.] 



Haktlib (Samuel).

 Husbandry used in Brabant and Flaunders ; Wherein are bequeathed to the 

 Common-wealth of England more Outlandish and Domestick Experiments 

 and Secrets in reference to Universall Husbandry. 1651. 

 [This is a reprint and not an enlargement of Weston's work. It contains 



nothing by Hartlib, except some Prefaces, which are not conspicuous for 

 honesty or sincerity. It consists of extracts from a number of letters 

 addressed to Harthb, and in particular of a " Large Letter " by Robert 

 Child, who signs his full name for the fu-st time in the edition of 1655.] 



2. The Reformed Husband-man ; or a brief Treatise of the Errors, Defects, 

 and Inconveniences of our English Husbandry, etc. 1651. 

 [This is not by Hartlib himself. It was " Imparted some years ago " 



to him, " And now by him re-imparted to all ingenuous English-men," 

 etc. It is often bound up with the Legacy.] 



3. An Essay for Advancement of Husbandry-Learning : or Propositions 

 for the errecting Colledge of Husbandry, etc. 1651. 

 [This treatise is probably not by Harthb but possibly by Cressy 



Dymoek, or by Gabriel Plattes, who in his Discovery had suggested a 

 " Colledge for Inventions in Husbandry."] 



4. A Discoverie for Division or Setting out of Land, as to the best Form. 

 PubUshed by Samuel Hartlib Esquire, for Direction ... of the Ad-
