Inhaltsangabe

Excerpt from The Small Grains

In the preparation of this volume the author has kept in mind the manifest need of giving more attention to the fundamental facts underlying agronomy, in the present-day training of students in agriculture. Such need has been felt directly by the author in his organization of young men for agronomic and pathologic research. It is the occasional student who finds himself prepared by sufficient training in those applied sciences related to the study of field crops to meet the awaiting problems of investigation. As the stream cannot rise higher than its source, so the agriculture of the future cannot be greatly improved unless the leaders themselves are placed on a firmer scientific footing.

From the above, it will be correctly inferred that this book is intended primarily for instruction in colleges and universities. It will be a disappointment, however, if it shall not be found adapted for use in agricultural short-courses, academies, and high schools, and by many farmers and general readers.

The manner of presenting some of the subjects is very different from that usually followed, but the changes are considered well justified, and it is hoped will commend themselves.
