Extracts from the Introduction :— 
“A knowledge of the chemical composition of soils, and the 
yarious substances employed as manures, enables us to compre- 
hend the mode in which the latter act; and a knowledge of the 
nature of those substances which plants require points out the 
best and most economical m: ethods of restoring to Ll Soil, by 
manures, those substances which plants remove ae 
“«Tf the farmer knows what it is ee gives the fertilizing powers 
to manure, and is aware of the nature of those substances, he will 
soon learn the best method of preserving end using them 
then understand how to make the most of the various sources of 
manure at his disposal, and he will be enabled readily to save 
pa that, for the want of such knowledge, would otherwise be
