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.

This book was released on 2017-01-12 with total page 22 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from Community and Cooperative Breeding of Farm Animals Community breeding of farm animals is a feature associated with breed development and improvement. The history of the breeds of farm animals shows that, in communities more or less restricted in area, people first became interested in developing a type of livestock which, in their Opinion, was best suited to the local conditions, and rendered the largest returns for the food and care involved. Very naturally some breeders were more intelligent and more progressive than others, which was re eted in the class of animals they produced. These men found t selves working to ward a common end, even tho the effort was free of organization. In time the community became prominent for the excellence of the herds of these breeders. In Europe we find many sections, in each of which a certain breed has developed that has seemed to be pecu liarly fitted to the local environment. Examples of this sort may be found in the Hereford cattle of Herefordshire, the Percheron horses of La Perche, France, the Jersey cattle on the island of Jersey, the Berkshire swine of Berkshire, and the Shropshire sheep of Shropshire. These are illustrations that might be extended into a large number. Cooperative breeding of farm animals has invariably resulted from community breeding. Until in recent years, the plan of co operation has been a rather natural one - a group of men combining to establish a breed standard, to protect its purity, and provide means of record for herds or individuals. The first cooperative movement for the systematic promotion of a breed, was perhaps with the people on the island of Jersey, who in 1763 by legislation prohibited the introduction of other cattle to the island, excepting for slaughter. In England, thru cooperative effort, as early as 1820, a herd book showing the breeding of Shorthorn cattle was published. Eventually, cooperative organization became a necessity in promo tion of each of the established breeds, otherwise there would have been no means of standardizing the breed and protecting its purity.
