Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from The Chemistry of Farm Practice Life, food, and raiment are directly or indirectly de pendent upon agricultural products. In the settlement of our country, land was abundant and people were few, con sequently little thought was given to the needs of the increasing numbers of succeeding generations. As the land first cultivated lost its fertility, the tide of population turned westward where unlimited areas of virgin soil awaited the herds and plowshares of the settlers. But this fresh area has been occupied, and to maintain the fertility of those fields that are still productive and to restore those that have become exhausted is the problem now facing agriculture. The maintenance of the fertility of a productive soil demands the intelligent application of the principles of agricultural chemistry. The restoration of wornout fields is a difficult and costly undertaking. The successful farmer must reinforce his art by the application of the fundamental information derived from the study of chemistry, geology, botany, bacteriology, and entomology.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from The Chemistry of the Farm This work is offered in the belief that it will meet the wants of many intelligent farmers, and others interested in the cultivation of the soil, who, while they have neither the time nor the inclination to take up Chemistry as a study, would gladly learn the present relations of Chemistry to Agriculture. The author of this book occupies an important position at Rothamsted. The most casual reader of Agricultural journals is aware that this is the name of an old English estate to which the labors of Messrs. Lawes and Gilbert have given a worldwide reputation as a station where abundant means, added to the highest scientific ability, have been devoted to the elucidation of Agricultural problems, solely for the benefit of Agriculture. Those labors are not for English agriculture especially, but have a world-wide application. The results which are freely given to the world, are those of experiments conducted in the field and stables, as well as in the laboratory, on a scale which gives them a practical value and commends them at once to the farmer as well as to the scientist.

This book was released on 2015-07-04 with total page 94 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from The Preparation of Substances, Important in Agriculture: A Laboratory Manual of Synthetic Agricultural Chemistry Third Edition It has been the aim in this manual to select substances of agricultural interest, adapt them to laboratory preparation, and explain their chemistry to the best of our present knowledge not overlooking their practical significance. The work was at first nothing more than laboratory directions, but the interest of the student gradually required the addition of explanatory matter to such a degree that the emphasis on an accompanying text has been greatly reduced. The method of presentation aims to put a few major points before the student and extend the work on such points over so long a time that the student wall absorb it. The author feels that when a student, in his earlier years in college, works interestedly for a whole exercise around one thing he grasps something while if a dozen important points pass in review during the time he is left in a maze and gets little but technical benefit.

This book was released on 2018-02-11 with total page 80 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from Agricultural Research in North Carolina, 1939-1940 Agriculture is both a business and a way Of life. Its practice combines both art and science. Upon its productivity depends both the economic and social welfare Of the Nation. The farmer is engaged in one Of the most speculative Of enterprises. His business is to produce living plants and animals whose laws of growth are still imperfectly understood. He is at the mercy of natural forces, for the most part beyond his control. He must sell his wares in markets subject to economic forces equally beyond his control. Precise rules for success cannot be laid down. Neither is success measurable in terms Of dollars alone. Satis factions, many wholly unrelated to cash income, are a part of successful life on the farm. On every farm, the experience Of the farmer himself, that Of his neighbors around him, and the accumulated knowledge handed down by past genera tions on the land, furnish much Of the basis for sound farming practice. Every wise farmer knows, however, that gaining new information to meet new conditions through experience alone is apt to be a slow and costly process. Changing market conditions, the appearance Of new insect pests and diseases, the development of new sources Of plant food, the invention Of new agricultural machines, all create demands for new information. TO gain this information in minimum time and at least cost to the individual farmer, central agencies for agricultural research have been set up by government. The agricultural experiment stations in the states and the Federal Department of Agriculture serve this function. Their job is to apply the tools Of modern science - chemistry, physics, physiology, genetics, and a host of others - to the problems Of the farmer, aiming to discover principles upon which sound solutions can be based. This is not a simple task. The research worker is beset by the same whims of Nature as the farmer. NO two animals, two plants, or two seasons are ever exactly alike. Often years Of testing are required to establish the superiority of a new crop variety, Of a new method for controlling disease, or Of a new system Of animal feeding. Premature release may easilylentail heavy losses to farmers. Moreover, the number Of problems demanding solution invariably exceeds the human, physical and financial resources of the research agencies. These facts bespeak patience on the part of the farmer. They do not justify a dilly-dally atti tude on the part of the research worker or the devotion of his energies to problems having little or no practical significance, regardless Of how inter esting they are scientifically.

Book excerpt: Excerpt from The Elements of Agriculture: A Book for Young Farmers Before this can be done we must study the char acter 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 mat ters, and discharge from their roots, or their leaves, or deposit within their pores, those substances that are not required for their growth. It is necessary for us to know what kind of matter is required as food for the plant, and whence it is to be Obtained; this we can learn only through such means as shall separate the elements of which plants are composed.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from A Study of Farm Animals During the past decade the subject of agricultural edu cation for our secondary schools and colleges has received much attention. Prior to this period a number of general texts on agriculture for schools, elementary in character, pre pared by men trained in general science or classics, were published. These texts had a limited distribution, partly because Of lack of interest in the subject by teachers and pupils, and partly because of the methods of presentation. These authors saw no way of handling the subject, except ing by a more or less stereotyped style, in which chemistry, or some natural science, furnished the reasoning basis. The establishment of agricultural colleges, equipped with farms, and working laboratories of greenhouses, orchards, gardens, field crops, and stables with their contents of farm animals and utensils, paved the way to a new and interest ing treatment of agricultural subjects. The introduction of popular short winter courses about 1890, was the first im portant step in this direction. Simple laboratory exercises in dairying, horticulture, and live-stock judging, appealed to students, and added much to the popularity of the in struction. As an outgrowth of these has come the great popular movement in America in behalf of agricultural edu cation. Not only the colleges, but many secondary schools have adopted agricultural courses, and some have been equipped with farms and laboratories, where the students are taught the relationship of principles to farm practice.
