Abstract
THE author introduces this volume of upwards of 200 pages as “an honest attempt to place the large subject of crop cultivation before the minds of children”; and this is, reasonably enough, his plea for its being “penned in the plainest possible language.” The work belongs to “Cassell's Agricultural Readers,” and the several chapters deal with rotations of crops, the fallow, root crops, corn crops, grass crops, grasses, clovers and pasture plants, and the making and management of pastures.
Farm Crops.
