THE SCIENCE OF NATURE. 

 A NEW SCHOOL BOOK, 



ENTITLED 



FIRST LESSONS IN 



CHEMISTRY AND GEOLOGY, 



As Applied to Agriculture. 



BY J. EMERSON KENT, A. M., II. D. 



ANEW school book — the first American work ever issued rifl the 

 first book, or "First Lessons in Chemistry and Geology, as 

 applied to Agriculture," designed as the first step for the young, 

 to be used in all our common schools, is now submitted to the 

 educational public. Some indeed protest against the introduction 

 of all modern improvements in making the earth productive ; still 

 the great agricultural interests of our nation depend upon a rising 

 generation of practical farmers, who will till the soil as much by a 

 comprehensive knowledge of the laws of chemistry, as by the 

 sweat of the brow. 



The subject of agricultural chemistry cannot but soon commend 

 itself to the world as the most important of all studies, and, in fact, 

 the wealth of thig country would be doubled within one year were 

 all that saved which is now h st by stupid, bungling agriculture. 

 A volume of recommendations could be given to the public, but it 



School Committees and Teachers will be furnished with a copy, 

 gratia, for examination, by mail, post-paid, on application to iho 

 undersigned. Price 25 cents.
