Book excerpt: Excerpt from Fourth Annual Report of the Transactions of the Pennsylvania State Agricultural Society, for the Year 1856, Vol. 4 The Senate of our State has authorized the publication of the reports con tained in this volume, thus placing the State Agricultural Society under te newed obligations to that body for enabling it to preserve a record of its transactions. The papers here presented exhibit a progressive interest in Agricultural knowledge and enterprise, and the addresses before the State and county moieties contain many hints of great importance to the Farmer, as well as high mental culture and attention to the great interest of the country, on the part of the gentlemen by whom they were delivered. The fostering care of the Commonwealth to this society has been acknow ledged by its donation of Ten Thousand dollars to the Farmers' High School, located in Centre county, which, with the aid extended to that institution by the Legislature, places it on a permanent basis, from which much 'good is expected, and it may be supposed with reason much will flow, to invigorate the efforts of those who hold that Science, in combination with Agriculture.
