Book excerpt: Excerpt from Annual Report of the North Carolina Agricultural Experiment Station: For 1879 It is a source Of great satisfaction to me that this first Annual Report is entirely a North Carolina production. Not only was the chemical work done in the State, but the drawings, cuts, printing, binding and the paper used, are all the products Of North Carolina skill and industry. The work of the Station has only appeared, hitherto, in fragmentary, detached portions, from no one of which could a just estimate of its value or operations be made. In the following pages will be found as complete a review of two years' work as space would allow. In looking back today over my two years and a half of labor in North Carolina, there is not a single shadow over the prospect. I have received from the hundreds of farmers whom I have met, nothing but encouragement. I have been aided by a majority of the papers in the State by kind words or sound advice, while from those journals which have criticised the work of the Station I have learned much that I trust has been, or shall be, utilized for the good of the State. I have nothing but grateful feelings to express towards the Board of Agriculture, under whose wise super vision I have worked, and to the Trustees, President and Faculty of the University for their interest and co-operation.
