Excerpt from An Experimental Course of Chemistry for Agricultural Students
A farmer does not need to be a chemist; at the same time he needs the training in accuracy, careful observation, and experimental method which a study of chemistry, properly carried out, imparts, and he needs a knowledge of the ele mentary principles of chemical change and of the properties of certain chemical substances, both inorganic and organic. The customary four years' course of inorganic and organic chemistry goes far beyond the requirements of an agricultural student, and is usually beyond the time at his disposal.
The following course is designed to enable an agricultural student to acquire the knowledge and training he needs by a short experimental study of the chemical substances with which agriculture is concerned, his attention being directed at the same time to the practical application of each subject dealt with to rural industry. The course upon which the work is founded has been in use during the past three years in some of the grammar schools and evening continuation schools in the rural districts of Essex, and has also been used in the County Technical Laboratories at Chelmsford by the students of the agricultural classes, and as a preparatory course for elementary school teachers who wish to qualify themselves to teach chemistry in the agricultural parts of the county.
