Lavoisier here gives a résumé of some ten years' experimental farming at Fréchines. He points out that contemporary customs leave the tenant farmers barely enough to live on and he pleads for a more tolerant and generous attitude from the landowners towards the farmers and for a less onerous burden on the later in so far as taxation concerned.

1819123040Paris: Madame Huzard 1819. Second edition first 1791 of Lavoisier's most important contribution as an economist "a milestone in the history of economic science and national statistics and accounting" Poirier p. 266. The work was reprinted after the Terror to which Lavoisier famously fell victim in Collection de divers ouvrages d'Arithmétique politique 1797. "De la richesse territoriale. de France which was printed in 1791 by order of the National Assembly constitutes an extract from a larger work on which Lavoisier had been engaged since 1784 in an effort to complete and verify an analysis of national income undertaken by Dupont de Nemours. Lavoisier's main argument is that the monetary valuation of national income from different sources leads to double counting; that the only method exempt from such difficulties is that based on an estimate of annual consumption since exports and imports in France balance one another; and that in estimating consumption allowance must be made for the variation in the budgets of different social classes. Thus he estimated that the annual per capita income of the poorest families is from 60 livres to 70 livres but he set the value of average per capita income at 110 livres a figure admittedly similar to that of Quesnay in his Philosophie rurale 1763. The net national income computed by estimating the net revenue in the various branches of agriculture he put at only 1200000000 of which half goes to the treasury in the form of taxes and the rest constitutes the landowners' rent" ESS p. 200.

1793EBS100381Paris: Cuchet 1793. 1st Edition. Hardcover. Very Good/No Jacket. AUTHORIZED SECOND EDITION OF LAVOISIER'S KEY WORK. This is authorized Chardon issue; 1st 1793 issue was pirated; 3rd 1793 issue was improved version of pirated issue by authorized publisher. Like the original 1789 edition the plates bear the signature of Madame Lavoisier."Although it does not show any material changes in the text nor any additions all the errata are here corrected and the plates are the original ones with Madame Lavoisier's signature. It is difficult to explain now the reasons why this edition was put out in the same year but it might be assumed that Lavoisier and Cuchet wanted to counteract the distribution of the books which had been fraudulently issued by printing an authoritative edition" Duveen & Klickstein.
