Book excerpt: Excerpt from Journal of the Bath and West and Southern Counties Society, 1893-94, Vol. 4 "He that goes about to forward agricultural improvement must begin by finding out the true reasons of what is called routine, or the 'custom of the country.' It sometimes happens that these seasons are only accidental, and then you may dismiss them fearlessly; but often it turns out that every-day practice rests on a solid foundation of facts; and then if you make an onslaught on local prejudices, they will be sure to beat you. "The true course for the agricultural improver is, to take one step at a time, to gain a clear insight into facts by experience, not to try to go too fast, and to trust to the work of time. "If practice which sets up to do without theory is contemptible, theory without practice is foolhardy and perfectly useless." - From the Rural Economy of England, Scotland, and Ireland, by Leonce de Lavergne.
