Excerpt from General View of the Agriculture of the County of Suffolk: Drawn Up for the Consideration of the Board of Agriculture and Internal Improvement
The first edition of this memoir, was drawn up under the idea that the Board of Agriculture wish ed for such a return from the several counties, as should answer the various purposes, I. Of describ ing the most interesting features of the local prac tices, and noting the most remarkable deficiencies; the one as an example to other counties, the other for attaining the knowledge that might prove useful to this 2. Of receiving such a re port of the statistical circumstances of the county, as might enable the Board to combine, from vari ous sources, the real state of the kingdom. These objects I fulfilled to the best of my abili ty, touching very lightly on those articles which must necessarily be common to every county, and dwelling particularly only on such as had something more local in their merit.
