Receuil de plusieurs secrets et remèdes éprouvés

Observations rélatives aux oliviers [en Provence]. By two different hands. In the second work a leaf has been cut out after the third leaf, a piece has been torn out of the first leaf, and a piece cut out of the upper margin of the third leaf. The first section (52 ll.) contains medical receipts only, and was probably written in the late 18th cent. The date 1820 is found on the second leaf of the treatise on olive-growing.
