 the "Agriculture of Massachusetts."

Office State Board of Agriculture, 



Boston, Mass., Sept. 1, 1893. 



In accordance with the above Resolve this Index lias been 

 prepared by Mr. F. H. Fowler, First Clerk in the office of the 

 State Board of Agriculture. It has taken months of close and 

 continuous application. It is expected that it will make the 

 information contained in the fifty-two volumes of "Agriculture 

 of Massachusetts" more accessible and thereby much more val- 

 uable. The Index is committed to the agricultural public of 

 Massachusetts, and particularly to those who have preserved a 

 full set of the volumes indexed, with the hope that it will prove 

 useful and valuable to them, and that it will help them appre- 

 ciate the liberality of the State of Massachusetts in providing 

 for free distribution such a library of information on agricult- 

 ural subjects. 



WILLIAM R. SESSIONS, 



Secretary State Board of Agriculture.
