Excerpt from General View of the Agriculture of the County of Northampton

The following valuable communications, respecting the present state of husbandry in the county of Northampton, and the means of its improvement, drawn up for the consideration of the Board of Agriculture, is now printed, merely for the purpose of its being circulated there, in order that every person, interested in the welfare of that county, may have it in his power to examine it fully before it is published. It is therefore requested, that any remark, or additional observation, which may occur to the reader, on the perusal of the following sheets, may be transmitted to the Board of Agriculture, at its office in London, by whom the same shall be properly attended to; and, when the returns are completed, an account will be drawn up of the state of agriculture in Northampton-shire, from the information thus accumulated, which, it is believed, will be found greatly superior to any thing of the kind ever yet made public.

The Board has followed the same plan, in regard to all the other counties in the united kingdom; and, it is hardly necessary to add, will be happy to give every assistance in its power, to any person who may be desirous of improving his breed of cattle, sheep, &c. or of trying any useful experiment in husbandry.
