RECOMMENDATION. 



JOHN NiCHoisotf, Esq. the Author of the Book 

 published under the Title of "The Farmer's Assist- 

 ant," having submitted to my inspection a number 

 of manuscript papers, containing materials which 

 he intends to make use of, as Additions and Cor- 

 rections, in a second Edition of that Work ; I have 

 no hesitation in giving it as my opinion, from a par- 

 tial perusal of those papers, and my knowledge of 

 his industry and competency to the task he has un- 

 dertaken, that the contemplated publication will be 

 a production of great value to the Agricultural 

 Class of our Countrymen. 



SIMEON DE WITT, 



President of the Society for the* Promotion of Useful Arts 

 in the State of New York. 



I concur in the above Recommendation. 



DE WITT CLINTON,
