Aver he recibido una carta de un
cstimado amigo, residente en-
Ponce, quien me dice were con gus
to que usted trate algo de Economic
rural en- In Correspondence, pues
he visto citada por I'd. esa ciencia,
clemento esencial para la Agricultu
IA y como es POGO conocida creo que
dc csa vulgarizaci6n sacariamos al
gun beneficio los que nos dcdicamos
al campo.

quicra ligera dc la economic rural
Y sus finesa rcserva de tocar despucs
y scgun me 10 pcrmitan mis- dcbcres

de csa cicncia.

grande entire los tratadistas cuando
So trat6 dc establecer los principles

las dcmas ciencias agricolas V que
solo estudia una propicdad de las
cosas que empleamos en- la agricultu

este modo no cabe va confusion v
Sc notan dcsdc luego sus intimas re-
