Mich Cows DAIRY FARhING.-Charles L. Flint
of Boston, Secretary of the Board Ag
culture, is the author of new work subject
before fully treated in this country which, mistake
not will prove the valuable book universal use
among farmers that has been published in this coun
try. There is scarcely anything worth knowing about
butter and cheese that cannot be found in this volume
which contains numerous illustrations besides its con-
else language carefully written from all the best author
tiles, and much personal observation. 1t is work that
was much needed, and one that in recommending we
shall do good to the farming interest 1t published
good paper clear type with many well cut wood engray
ngs and contains eyer ~ pages and, we suppose will
sell for 81 25-NeD York Tribune,
This work is marked by the cearness and perspcuity
which have characterized Mr. Flnts previous produc-
tons 1t contains an account of the most enlightened
bandry of Holland and the and productive
modes of management in English dairy farming embrace
not hitherto presented to the American public in an
available form.-Saiela Gazette
We recommend the work to every who keeps COW,
or intends to do so.-Ohio Farmer.
We recommend it as a matter of economy; because IL
studied il cannot fail to mpart facts of more value
most darymen and dairywomen than several times its
cost.-Neu England Farmer.
1t should be in the hands of every of a cow
Vermont Stock Journal
1t can but rank as standard American diary book
the best have hesitation in saying upon
the subject.-Coantry Gentleman.
Mich Cows AND DAIRY FARsuNG.-Ths is a well writ
ten work. aordng great deal of highly valuable inor
nation respecting the topics treated 1t both thorough
and practical and does not urge expensive experiments
tue reacn OF the ordinary farmer
and doubtful in their results The directions are clear
minute, and abundantly illustrated, with ingeniousy
planned, and sharply outlined cuts The chapter on the
DAIRY husbandry OF Holland translated from the German
of Eerbrook professor in the Agricultural Institute at
Zeys is extremely entertaining well instructive
Every custom in this department which has obtained
among that cleanly and dgent people is least
knowing since they spare pains to sustain the reputa-
ton which their butter and cheese has obtained both in
Europe and America Indeed all the suggestions in this
volume are worthy of consideration. Upon subject
we so much need scientific and practical instruction as
upon that of husbandry in its various branches and
nearly all that is contained in this book will be found
both useful and important-B0st0R Journal.
Mr. Flint possesses every qualification for the task he
has undertaken patience in research love for the sub
jects great opportunities for information a scholarly
mind, and an acquaintance with all the theories and
tens on neat stock and the management of the dairy
which have prevailed and he has performed especial
service for the farmers of this country furnishing them
with this complete manual 0Ward'S Register.
The more we examine the book the better we like It,
10 say that it superior to any work hitherto published
on that subject is enough better book of its
Kind than we had hoped TO have oportunity of wei
coming to the shelves of our agricultural library
