| Summary, etc | In the years 1857 and 1858 the writer in the capacity of Chemist to the State Agricultural Society of Connecticut was commissioned to make investigations into the agricultural uses of the deposits of peat or swamp muck which are abundant in this State; and in 1858 he submitted a Report to Henry A. Dyer Esq. Corresponding Secretary of the Society embodying his conclusions. In the present work the valuable portions of that Report have been recast and with addition of much new matter form Parts I. and II. The remainder of the book relating to the preparation and employment of peat for fuel &c. is now for the first time published and is intended to give a faithful account of the results of the experience that has been acquired in Europe during the last twenty-five years in regard to the important subject of which it treats.The employment of peat as an amendment and absorbent for agricultural purposes has proved to be of great advantage in New-England farming. |
