Synopsis
Excerpt from Farm Drainage: The Principles, Processes, and Effects of Draining Land With Stones, Wood, Plows, and Open Ditches, and Especially With Tiles; Including Tables of Rain-Fall; Evaporation, Excavation, Capacity of Pipes; Cost and Number to the Acre, of Tiles, &C., &C., And The Agriculture of America has seemed to me to demand some light upon the subject of Drainage; some work, which, with an exposition of the various theories, should give the simplest details of the practice, of draining land. This treatise is an attempt to answer that demand, and to give to the farmers of our country, at the same time, enough of scientific principles to satisfy intelligent inquiry, and plain and full directions for executing work in the field, according to the best known rules. It hat been my endeavor to show what lands in America require drainage, and how to drain them best, at least expense; to explain how the theories and the practice of the Old World require modification for the cheaper lands, the dearer labor, and the various climate of the New; and, finally, to suggest how, through improved implements and processes, the inventive genius of our country may make the brain assist and relieve the labor of the hand. With some hope that my humble labors, in a field so broad, may not have entirely failed of their object, this work is offered to the attention of American farmers.
