THE GARDENERS' CHRONICLE 



AND 



AGRICULTURAL GAZETTE; 



A Weekly Record of Rural Economy and General News. 



As regards the Gardening Part, the principle is to make it a weekly record of 

 everything that bears upon Horticulture, Floriculture, Arboriculture, or Garden Botany, 

 and such Natural History as has a relation to Gardening, with Notices and Criticisms of 

 all Works on such subjects. Connected with this part are 



WEEKLY CALENDARS OF GARDENING OPERATIONS, 



given in detail, and adapted to the objects of persons in every station of life ; so that the 

 Cottager, with a few rods of ground before his door, the Amateur who has only a Green- 

 house, and the Manager of Extensive Gardens are alike informed of the routine of opera- 

 tions which the varying seasons render necessary. It moreover contains Reports of Horti- 

 cultural Exhibitions and Proceedings, Notices of Novelties and Improvements — in fact, 

 everything that can tend to advance the profession, benefit the condition of the workman, 

 or conduce to the pleasure of his employer. 



Woodcuts are given whenever the matter treated of requires that mode of illustration. 



The Farming Part (under the Editorship of a practical Farmer) treats of — 



The Practice of Agriculture. 

 Agricultural Science. 

 Animal and Vegetable Physiology. 

 Improvements in Implements, described 



by woodcuts whenever requisite. 

 Improved modes of Husbandry. 

 Results of Experimental Farming. 

 Growth and Rotation of Crops. 

 Management of Stock. 



Veterinary Science. 



Drainage. 



Irrigation. 



Foresting. 



Road-making. 



Farm-buildings. 



Labourers. 



Treatment of Poultry. 

 Agricultural Publications. 



In short, whatever affects the beneficial employment of capital inland. 



Eeports are regularly given of the English, Scotch, and Irish Agricultural Societies and 

 Farmers' Clubs, London Markets, Prices of Corn, Hay, Cattle, Seeds, Heps, Potatoes, 

 Butter, Wool, Coal, Timber, Bark, &c, and the Weekly Averages. 



Replies to Questions connected with the object of the Paper are also furnished 

 weekly. 



Lastly, that description of Domestic and Political News is introduced which is 

 usually found in a Weekly Newspaper. It is unnecessary to dwell on this head further 

 than to say that the Proprietors do not range themselves under the banners of any Party ; 

 their earnest endeavours are to make The Gardeners' Chronicle and Agricultural 

 G azette a full and comprehensive Record of Facts only — a Newspaper in the true sense 

 of the word — leaving the Reader to form his own opinions, — their object being the elucida- 

 tion of the laws of Nature, not of Man. The Reader is thus furnished, in addition to 

 the peculiar features of the Journal, with such information concerning the events 

 of the day as supersedes the necessity of his providing himself with any other Weekly 

 Paper.
