"The following Remarks have been submitted to the Royal English Agricultural Society, and have met the unanimous approbation of its members.

Since they were compiled, a reduction has taken place in some of the articles of domestic consumption, which it is hoped will render the adoption of the Hints more easy to the Labourers."—Preface.
