Abstract
THIS is a subject of deep interest to the student, and of no small practical importance to the farmer. As Mr. Warington indicates, it is one that has not received a great deal of experimental attention in this country, nor does it usually form a separate subject for class-room treatment. In England we have in the past depended chiefly on the text-books of Fream and Munro, to which may now be added some excellent American manuals, notably that by King. These lectures by Warington form a welcome addition to our literature, and they are worthy of a larger audience than that which surrounded the Sibthorpian chair.
