APPENDIX. 



Tho author, in presenting this brief outline of AGRICULTURAL 

 CUKMISTRY, as an Appendix to Part I of this book, wishes to show 

 tho "why and wherefore," certain fertilizers, manures, composts 

 and stimulants, are applied to the soil, so that the farmer may see 

 for himself, the best articles to use, as well as those which should 

 bo avoided. Too great a degree of caution cannot be observed, in 

 the use of stimulating fertilizers ; nor is it necessary that they 

 should be applied in excessive quantities.
