TESTIMONIALS. 



The following: are a few testimonials of the first edition published 



in 1881. The present edition is much larger and better 



in every respect. 



From W. E. Simonds, Hartford, Conn.: 



Your book is really a valuable one. I tbink I know wbat among 

 the vast amount of agricultural rubbish is valuable. My mental classifi- 

 cation of your book is alongside Waring's book on Drainage, and I 

 consider that a very honorable companion. 



From W. G. Markham, Avon, N.Y.: 



Your work on Soiling is not only well written but exceedingly in- 

 teresting and instructive, and must be a most valuable work, which ought 

 to be read by every farmer and dairyman in the country. 



From Erich Parmly, New York City : 



I am reading your valuable work on Soiling and Ensilage and find it 

 very instructive. I must put it into practice and get rid of some interior 

 fencing. I have about seven miles of fendng, enough to make a man 

 poor. 



From Wm. Kent, Palmyra* N. Y.: 



The best book on agriculture I ever read. 



From Chas. Woolcott, Canton, Ohio: 



There is more common sense agriculture in Mr. Peer's work on 

 Soiling than in any book on farming I ever read. It should be a 

 textbook in every agricultural college and every farmer's son should 



read it. 



From Country Gentleman, Albany, N. Y.: 



The work contains a forcible summary of the arguments In favor of 

 Soiling, together with a concise statement of the author's personal ex- 

 perience, incrluding the arrangement of buildings, both as regards Soil- 

 ing and Ensilage. 



Rural Home, Rochester, N. Y. 



We have referred to Mr. Peer's system of soiling his stock of all 

 kinds on occasions of two visits to his farm. We would advise farmers 

 and dairymen to obtain this book and study it. 



Philadelphia Weekly Press. 



The book is a strong presentation of a system which must ultimately 

 come into general use. We hope tliebook will have a wide circulation. 



Newark Courier. 



^Ir. Peer is a practical man who has niade"agriculture a study, and 

 by his original and progressive ideas has placed our farming people 

 under great obligations.
