OverviewExcerpt from Agriculture of New-York, Vol. 1: Comprising an Account of the Classification, Composition and Distribution of the Soils and Rocks, and the Natural Waters of the Different Geological Formations It will be seen that I have laid some stress upon the division of the State into maize (or indian corn) and wheat-growing districts. The distinction may be one of little importance, and some may regard it as useless; still I believe that the actual constitution of the soils, and of the rocks from which they are derived, will bear me out in the distinction itself. The origin of the phosphates has been with me an object of considerable research, in which I trust I have Obtained some satisfactory and useful results. I believe this is the first attempt, made in this country, to determine the rocks which contain phosphates, and distinguish them from those that do not. I consider the inquiry an interesting one, which ought to be further prosecuted. About the Publisher Forgotten Books publishes hundreds of thousands of rare and classic books.
