Excerpt from Practical Agricultural Chemistry This book is intended as a practical handbook in Agricultural Chemistry for Students working through courses of instruction for the London B.Sc. degree in Agriculture and other examinations of similar type and standard. In order to avoid the baldness that cannot be dissociated from a mere list of practical experiments, a short theoretical discussion has been given where necessary before each series of operations, in order to recall to the mind of the student the more salient points in connection with the practical work he has in hand. Emphasis has been placed on the qualitative side of the subject to a greater extent than is frequently done. It is a matter of extreme regret that many of the students who leave our Agricultural Colleges do so with very little appreciation of the practical value of chemistry to agriculture, and with no more than a theoretical insight into the mechanism and meaning of the countless changes with which they are destined continually to come in contact during their agricultural career. This is often due to their having spent most of their time in the chemical laboratory in working through analytical processes, the intricacies of which have had little meaning for them.

Excerpt from Practical Farm Chemistry: A Handbook of Profitable Crop Feeding Times and conditions have changed. The land does not respond any more quite so promptly to merely scratching its back with plow and harrow. It has grown weary and hungry. It now looks for food, and coaxing, and petting, before it can be made to smile with flowers, fruits, vegetables and grains.
