H. Gregory, is an agricultural manual written in the early 20th century. The book appears to be a detailed guide for farmers and gardeners interested in the cultivation, storage, and utilization of these root crops. Its likely focus is on practical methods of growing carrots, mangold wurtzels (a type of large beet grown for livestock), and sugar beets, with attention given to maximizing yield, proper soil and fertilizer use, and best practices for feeding the crops to livestock. This work should appeal to those seeking comprehensive, experience-backed instructions on root crop agriculture in temperate climates. The opening of the book sets a methodical, informative tone, beginning with arguments for the value of root crops as compared to hay, noting their high productivity and importance in good farming practices. Gregory then addresses carrots specifically: their nutritional content, disease resistance, benefits for various types of livestock, and uses both in family kitchens and on the farm. Early chapters are highly practical, covering topics such as choosing the ideal field location and soil, selecting and applying appropriate manures and fertilizers, the timing and methods for planting, seed preparation, thinning, varieties to select, cultivation tools, and harvest and storage techniques. The section on mangold wurtzels and sugar beets follows a similar pattern, delving into botany, varietal selection, soil needs, manuring strategies, the role of salt as a fertilizer, planting, tending, harvesting, and feeding. Technical data, experiment summaries, and price/cost tables further emphasize the book’s utility as a reference for working farmers.
