Overview

Excerpt from Essays and Discussions on Agriculture, Before the Farmers Club of Little Falls These Essays, it would perhaps be proper to say, were not originally intended for publication in book form. They were written by persons engaged in the business of farming, and hence, may be deemed for the most part, the result of actual experience. This feature, it is believed, gives them greater value for. It is the kind of information most accepta ble to the farmer, and, in fact, is of that character which must always serve as the basis of all real improvement. The Article on Butter-making, by A. B. Dickinson, and that on the Virgalieu Pear, by S. H. Ainsworth, do not properly belong to the work, but these papers were read at some of the meetings of the Club, and, beg ing matter of discussion, it was thought best to introduce them. The Discussions which follow the Essays, are taken from the reports furnished by the writer, for the journal and courier Newspapers, and are intended to express the substance of remarks made at the several meetings at which the Essays were read. Whether this matter adds any thing. To the value of the work, the public, of course, must judge. It was deemed advisable to publish them in connection with the Essays, in order to give the opinion of intelligent and successful Agriculturists, only in reference to the position advanced by the Essayists, but with re gard to other topics relating to Agriculture, which chanced to come 'up before the Club.
