Excerpt from Permanent and Temporary Pastures I feel a special pleasure in acknowledging the great services rendered me by Dr. J. Augustus voelcker, in making a series of chemical analyses of agricultural grasses expressly for this book. These analyses will be found at pages 160 to 204. They are of a more exhaustive and practical character than any which have previously been published, and, with the Report on page 159, they will be of considerable interest to scientific agriculturists. Finally, I have had the advantage Of drawing upon my father's experience of over fifty years in laying down land in every county, and almost in every parish, of the kingdom, as well as large tracts in the Colonies. This book does not profess to be a standard authority on British Grasses. My aim has been to show the relative agricultural value of varieties upon which I have personally experimented. For any omissions that may be detected perhaps I may be allowed to plead that the work has been written in brief moments snatched at intervals from an absorbing business.
