Manual of Farm Animals e-bog

Whilst the greatest effort has been made to ensure the quality of this text, due to the historical nature of this content, in some rare cases there may be minor issues with legibility. 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.
