CONCLUSION.

I trust, the observations I have made, will be received, and perused, with candour, and commented upon, with li- berality. They are presented, as a tribute due to this happy country, which has ever been pre-eminent, in its agricultural productions. And though the argumentative, and sounder reasoning, of long experienced years, might, in more energetic language, recommend the improvements proposed, they could not be offered with more zealous wishes, or with a more ardent desire, that success may attend the laudable endeavours of the Board of Agriculture; nor afford greater satisfaction, than I shall experience, if the country at large, or any part ofthe com- munity, acquire the smallest advantage, or source of comfort, from this REPORT OF THE AGRICULTURE OF BERKSHIKE.
