ICIODBRAY ON POULTRY, PIGS. AND liIILCH CO
This day is published, price 7a. in boards, a oew Edition of
APRACTICAL TREATISE on Breeding, Rearing,
and Fattening all kinds of Domestic Poultry, Pheasants,
Pigeons, and Rabbits. Also on Breeding, Feeding, and Managing
Swine, Al ilch Cows, and Bees. Fifth Edition, enlarged by a
Treatise on Brewing, adapted to the use of Private Families.
By lIONINGI'ON MOUBRAY, Eall•
The CHAPTER on BREWING may be had separately, to
complete former Bditiene, pricy is.
" Alr. Moubray's little Book on Breeding, Rearing, and Fat-
tening all kinds of Domestic Poultry and Pigs, is unqueatiorahly
the most Practical Work on the subject in our lang.tage. The
author's aim seems to have been to avoid scientific detail, and to
convey his information in plain and intelligible terms. The con-
venience of a small poultry-yard, two or three Pip, with a breed-
ing Sow, and a Cow lor milk, cream, butter, and cheese, with a
jug of good ale, in an English country-house. appears
pensible : and to point out how these may be obtained at a rea-
sonable expense, seems to have been Mr. Moubray's object. By
adopting the plan of his work any family may furnish their table
with these luxuries at one third of the price they are obliged to
pay at the markets ; and the farmer and breeder may render it the
source orconsiderable profit. In the Fifth Edition, just published,
its practical utility is much augmented by the addition of a chapter
on Brewing, adapted to the means of private families."—Farmer's
Journal.
