Abstract
AGRICULTURAL chemistry deals with a very extensive range of subjects, including the whole of the materials and operations with which agriculture is concerned. The plant, the soil and the animal are each of them subjects sufficient to satisfy a whole generation of workers; but agricultural chemistry includes all these and much more besides. No book ever has been written, and none probably ever will be, attempting to deal with the entire subject; the student must, therefore, fill his shelves with a great variety of books, by many writers, if he would have at command the information available on the subjects of agricultural chemistry.
