Letter from the Editor of the N Y Tribune MY FRIEND WARING If all who need the information given in your Elements of Agriculture will confess their ignorance as frankly as I do and seek to dispel it as promptly and heartily you will have done a vast amount of good by writing it I have found in every chapter important truths which I as a would be farmer needed to know yet which I did not know or had but a confused and glimmering consciousness of before I read your lucid and straightforward exposition of the bases of Agriculture as a science I would not have my son grow up as ignorant of these truths as I did for many times the price of your book and I believe a copy of that book in every family in the Union would speedily add at least ten per cent per acre to the aggregate product of our soil beside doing much to stem and reverse the current which now sets so strongly away from the plow and the scythe toward the counter and the office Trusting that your labors will be widely regarded and appreciated I remain yours truly HORACE GREELEY

What is the object of cultivating the soil What is necessar y in order to cultivate with economy Are plants created from nothing The object of cultivating the soil is to raise from it a crop of plants In order to cultivate with economy we must raise the largest possible quantity with the least expense and without permanent injur y to the soil Before this can be done we must study the character of plants and learn their exact composition They are not created by a mysterious power they are merely made up of matters already in existence They take up water containing food and other matters and discharge from their roots those substances that are not required for their growth It is necessar y for us to know what kind of matter is required as food for the plant and where this is to be obtained which we can learn only through such means as shall separate the elements of which plants are composed in other words we must take them apart and examine the different pieces of which they are formed
