Two silver medals awarded to Arthur Young for his work in the field of Agriculture, comprising Institute Society of London medal for `Useful Experiments on Potatoes 1780`, and Society for Improvement of Agriculture for his services to the public, 1767, (2), BIOGRAPHICAL NOTE; Arthur Young was born in 1741 in Suffolk. In 1767 he took over a farm in Essex, where he engaged in various experiments, describing the results in A Course of Experimental Agriculture (1770). He undertook journeys through England and Wales, and gave an account of his observations in books which appeared from 1768 to 1770—A Six Weeks` Tour through the Southern Counties of England and Wales, A Six Months` Tour through the North of England and the Farmer`s Tour through the East of England. They were very well received, being translated into most European languages by 1792. In all, Young produced around 25 books and pamphlets on agriculture and 15 books on political economy, as well as many articles. He was famous for the views he expressed, as an agricultural improver, political economist and social observer. In 1768 he published the Farmer`s Letters to the People of England, in 1771 the Farmer`s Calendar, which went through many editions, and in 1774 his Political Arithmetic, which was widely translated. Young also acted as parliamentary reporter for the Morning Post. He toured Ireland in 1776, publishing his Tour in Ireland in 1780. In 1784 he began the publication of the Annals of Agriculture, which was continued for 45 volumes: contributors included King George III, writing under the nom de plume of "Ralph Robinson." He died in 1820.
