Agriculture. On the burning of clay for manure
The essay surveys agricultural progress and questions the overhyped value of burnt clay as a manure. It notes careful observations on grass species, the practical limits of torrefaction, and warns against excessive hopes from early 19th century clay burning trials. It cites Dr Richardson, Mr Alexander Craig, and Mr Wallace, and reflects on widespread but diminishing enthusiasm since 1815.
