This book is intended both for a competent peasant and for an intellectual who, settling on the ground, is often more helpless than a peasant, due to the lack of special knowledge and experience. A significant number of drawings and valuable instructions are borrowed from magazines: "Agricultural Newspaper," "Village," "Khutor," "Rural Master," "Peasant Farm" and from others, from books: most of all from the works of I. Manteifel, K. Debu, V. Stori, Vl.Maksimova, "Complete Encyclopedia of Russian Agriculture" and others.
