About this book
Cattle, the dairy, sheep, the horse, the ass, swine, farm dogs and poultry each get a chapter in this practical guide for the stock-breeder and grazier. R. L. Allen, author of a "Compend of American Agriculture", covers the history of each animal, how it came to the United States, and the care it needs: breeding, crossing, rearing, feeding and preparing animals for market.
The introduction gives more room to management and feeding than to disease, arguing that prevention costs less than cure. Only simple remedies for common ailments are offered. This copy carries the New York imprint of Orange Judd, 1865.
