          small durability of our climate affects thsi much. Then
would it be a pity to use any pains for future experiments.

If this is not the cause, it is perhaps owing to the selection
or degeneracy of the seed, the cultivation of the soil,
the bad nethod of preserving the roots, the want of continuing
the experiments, then I conclude the following:

1st For the selection of suitable ground I would travel
over the northern part of the state of New-York, Indiana,
Illinois, and Iowa, also the Southern part of the states
of Minnesota, Wisconsin, and Michigan.

2nd I would occasion several intelligent farmers in the
vicinity of railroads, rivers, and canals, to make attempts
in the cultivation of beet-roots according to
my directions and to preserve them through the winter.

3rd I would myself conduct the cultivation of the beet-root 
on a larger scale say from 4 to 10 acres in any
seeming favorable place, and there to make experiments
for the production of beet-roots, Keeping
them through the winter, the gain of the sugar, etc.
What experience have you of the same, dear sir, and
what advice would you give me???

respectfully yours
