Excerpt from Elements of Agricultural Chemistry, in a Course of Lectures for the Board of Agriculture During ten years, since 1802, I have had the honour, every Session, of delivering Courses of Lectures before the Board of Agriculture. I have endeavoured, at all times, to follow in them the progress of chemical discovery, they have therefore varied every year: and such is the rapidity with which Chemistry is extending, that some alterations and improvements were rendered necessary at the time they were preparing for the press. The Duke of Bedford has enabled me to stamp a value upon this work, by permitting me to add to it the results of the experiments instituted by His Grace upon the quantity of produce afforded by the different grasses. I am indebted for much useful information to many members of the Board, of which acknowledgments will be found in the body of the work. If there are any omissions on this head, I trust they will be attributed to defect of recollection, and not to any want of candour or of gratitude.
