Unlike some other reproductions of classic texts (1) We have not used OCR(Optical Character Recognition), as this leads to bad quality books with introduced typos. (2) In books where there are images such as portraits, maps, sketches etc We have endeavoured to keep the quality of these images, so they represent accurately the original artefact. Although occasionally there may be certain imperfections with these old texts, we feel they deserve to be made available for future generations to enjoy.

Excerpt from A Course of Practical Chemistry for Agricultural Students, Vol. 1 The following exercises in Practical Agricultural Chemistry are designed primarily for the use of students taking the course for the Degree in Agricultural Science at Cambridge University. Volume I is intended to cover the first year's course on the Chemistry and Physics of the Soil, while Volume II covers the second year's course on the Chemistry of Foods. The latter volume is divided into two parts: Part I dealing with such exercises in Pure Organic Chemistry as are essential for agricultural students, and is entirely qualitative, while Part II deals with quantitative estimations and technical analyses of food stuffs. This division has been considered desirable, as students who have already taken a course in Organic Chemistry will find it unnecessary to work through Part I of Volume II. Volume III deals with the special advanced Chemistry of Insecticides and Fungicides, Food preservatives, etc. It is hoped that this division into convenient booklets will make them useful to teachers. The exercises are designed to illustrate most of the essential points in Agricultural Chemistry and to require the minimum of apparatus. A Course of Practical Work was compiled by Professor T. B. Wood some years ago for the use of his classes, and this forms the foundation of a portion of the present exercises. The Sincere thanks of the authors are due to Professor Wood and the Syndics of the University Press for their permission to utilise that material.

This Book Is Intended As A Practical Handbook In Agricultural Chemistry For Students In Agriculture And Other Examinations Of Similar Types And Standard. In Order To Avoid The Baldness That Cannot Be Dissociated From A Mere List Of Practical Experiments, A Short Theoretical Discussion Has Been Given Where Necessary Before Each Series Of Operations, In Order To Recall To The Mind Of The Student The More Salient Points In Connection With The Practical Work He Has In Hand. Emphasis Has Been Placed On The Qualitative Side Of The Subject To A Greater Extent Than Is Frequently Done. Throughout The Book A Fair Knowledge Is Assumed On The Part Of The Student Of The Commoner Qualitative And Quantitative Processes Of General Chemistry, While In Cases Of Estimations Which Are Not Generally Included In A Course Of Pure Chemistry, Such As, For Example, The Determination Of The Iodine Value, Reichert-Meissl Number Etc., Full Practical Directions Are Given. It May Be Also Mentioned That All The Experiments Described In The Text Has Been Personally Worked Through By One Or Both Of The Authors. It Is Hoped That The Book, In This New Edition, Will Still Continue To Be Of Value To Those Students Engaged In The Study Of The Scientific Side Of Agriculture.
