SILK MANUAL. 



VALUABLE WORK ON AGRICUIiTURE. 



This Day published by Geo. C. Barrett, THE COM- 

 PLETE FARMER AND RURAL ECONOMIST. By T. 



G. Fessenden. Second edition, revised and improved by the 

 Author, with considerah^ additions. 



The first ed'tion was published last season, and the sale was 

 rapid beyond precedent for a work of this kind. The present 

 improved and stereotyped impression has still higher recom- 

 mendations to public patronage, anj cannot fail to prove still 

 more useful to the community of cultivators. 



This work has met with decided and universal approbation 

 from the most competent judges. Among the written and 



Erinted recommendatory notices are those of the Hon. John 

 owKLi, and Rev. Henrv Colman. The Editors of the 

 New York Farmer, the New England Magazine, the .Maine 

 Farmer, Loudon's Gardener's Magazine, ^c. have given favor- 

 able critiques of the Complete Farmer. We shall subjoin Mr 

 Lowell's notice, and propose in some future number to publish 

 those of the other gentlemen who have honored the work with 

 their approbation. 



"Roxbnnj, April 6, ISS."?. 

 " Having perused with attention the Complete Farmer and 

 Rural Economist, by Thomas G. Fessenden, Esq. in its first 

 edition, and having recently revised it at his request, prepara- 

 tory to a second edition, 1 am of opinion that it is a valuable 

 compendium and useful work. Those who know that the sci- 

 ei.ce of Agriculture is so e,\tensive as to fill twelve quarto vol- 

 umes in the celebrated French work of the Abbe Rozier, and a 

 space not less in English worksj will not expect in such an a- 

 bridgement full details in any one branch of that extensive and 

 varied art. But I know of no abridged work in the French or 

 English languages which conveys more instruction in so small 

 a compass than this work of Mr Fessenden.
