Of the season of the rise and fall of the sap in 
trees, and benefiting thereby in felling them in the 
dark of the moon, we recommend him to be duly 
attentive :—but as to the means of enabling him 
advantageously to derive benefit from the stages 
of the moon, for planting corn, pulse, cabbage, 
and potatoes, we shall leave him to profit by his 
own experience. 
These are the principal omissions which have 
occurred to us :—and now, craving the indul¬ 
gence of our reader to these pages, which were 
most sincerely dictated with a view to his benefit, 
we beg leave to assure him, should it happen to 
come to the Author’s knowledge, that he has in the 
smallest degree succeeded, he will feel himself 
highly gratified ; and in these sentiments he bids 
his reader a most sincere, cordial, and hearty 
farewell.
