Book Description

"The Farm That Won't Wear Out" by Cyril G. Hopkins is a classic gardening text that helped aspiring farmers and gardeners learn how to improve their craft so it would have sustainable longevity. It does so through the examination of agricultural science around the turn of the 20th century. Delving as far into the chemistry as how nitrogen can affect crops, the book then moves on to arguments like soil fertility and how to create a permanent crop.
