Agriculture in Some of its Relations with Chemistry

Abstract

THIS work, by the Professor of Agricultural Chemistry at the Harvard University, is based on a course of lectures delivered annually by the author. It is addressed to students of agriculture and persons fond of rural affairs, rather than to students of chemistry. Free use has been made of German publications in agricultural chemistry, and of the writings of Prof. S. W. Johnson, of Newhaven, Connecticut. Some of the matters treated of in his two well-known books, “How Crops Grow” and “How Crops Feed,” have been omitted, or only lightly touched, in the present volumes, which are therefore, to a certain extent, a supplement to those books.

Agriculture in some of its Relations with Chemistry.
