Written by Professor G. F. Warren, who is in charge of the Department of 
Farm Management and Farm Crops in the New York State College of Agri- 
culture, Cornell University, an authority on questions pertaining to practical 
agriculture, 
Professor Warren is, moreover, a farmer. He grew up on a farm in the mid- 
dle West and is living at the present time on a farm of three hundred and 
eighteen acres, which he supervises in connection with his work at the Univer- 
sity. 
The “ Elements of Agriculture” is a text that does not “talk down” to the 
pupil. It gives agriculture rank beside physics, mathematics, and the languages, 
as a dignified subject for the course of study. 
In Warren’s “ Elements of Agriculture” there is no waste space. It is writ- 
ten with the ease that characterizes a writer at home in his subject, and it is 
written in a style pedagogically correct. The author has been a teacher of high 
school boys and girls and knows how to present his subject to them. 
Experts in the teaching of agriculture the country over have been unanimous 
in praise of the text. For instance: 
Mr. J. E. BLAIR, Supt. of Schools, Corsicana, Texas : 
“ An examination of Warren’s ‘Elements of Agriculture’ convinces me that 
it is a book of uncommon merit for secondary schools as well as for the private 
student. It is thoroughly scientific in matter, and is written in an attractive 
style, that cannot fail to please as well as instruct.” 
Supt. E.S. SMITH, Whiting, Iowa: 
“T am very much pleased with Warren's ‘Elements of Agriculture.’ In my 
opinion it is the only book on the market that presents the work of agriculture 
suitably for high schools; too many books are too simple and do not give 
enough work; a book for high schools must be more than a primer,
