Excerpt from Lessons in Modern Farming: Or, Agriculture for Schools; Containing Scientific Exercises for Recitation; And Elegant Extracts From Rural Literature, for Academic or Family Reading It is possible that persons may be found who will take half an hour, and turn over the leaves of this volume from beginnin to end, and be cause they do not find page after page filled with ecimal fractions giving the relative to rtions of vegetable or animal constituency, as imposing as Bowditch's avigator; or, because they do not find column after column of chemical terms, drawn up in formidable order, like the columns of an army about entering battle with their guns and bayonets glittering in the sun, will imagine that this work is not sufficiently scientific. Now, it has verily been our deliberate intention to place in ambush throughout the work, in small squads, whatever of science we have cooked up, so as not to frighten the unlearned out of their wits, with a martial exhibition of our forces. We think we are not mistaken in our philosophy upon this point; and we re uest such per sons to read the whole of Prof J ohnston's lecture allu ed to. More over, we a prehend, that if they will examine our pages throughout, they will nd more science than they expected; and enough, at any rate, if all is used, as we design it to be, to give hundreds of thousands of young men a taste for more elaborate productions.
