Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from Hints on the Breeding and Rearing of Farm Animals The Author of the following "Hints on the Breeding and Rearing of Animals" had the privilege of reading a paper on the subject in the summer of 1886 to the Fife Farmers' Club. The members present at the meeting expressed a unanimous wish that the paper should be published, and with this wish the author has now (though somewhat late) the pleasure of conforming, but in doing so he has thought it advisable to interpolate (where in his opinion it was advantageous to do so) remarks made by him in other addresses and papers published on various occasions during the last few years. These interpolations are enclosed in brackets. The author, in view of the large amount of public attention recently directed towards the subject, has materially extended his original remarks on abortion.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from Manual of Farm Animals: A Practical Guide to the Choosing, Breeding, and Keep of Horses, Cattle, Sheep, and Swine From the above, it will be seen that the author's purpose is to discuss the general care and management of farm animals rather than the breeds. However, a knowledge of the breeds is necessary. To economize space and the reader's time, the writer has adopted the method of freely inserting pictures of good animals of many breeds, with liberal legends, letting 'them run as a minor motive throughout the book. By this plan it is hoped that some of the main characteristics of the breeds may be taken away by the reader with little effort on his part.
