A Complete Manual for Growers. By P. J. Fryer, F.LC, F.C.S. 

 Crown 8vo. With 24 plates in natural colours and 305 original photo-

The present volume represents a careful and painstaking attempt to produce as 

 complete a book of reference as possible, suited to the requirements of the fruit and 

 hop grower, and presented in such a form that the information, while given with 

 scientific precision, is also in a readily available form. 



"In modern commercial fruit culture results depend very largely on the grower's 

 ability to control the insect pests and fungous diseases which attack his trees. To 

 assist him in this work he has long needed a reliable handbook covering the whole 

 subject, enabling him to identify his enemies without loss of time, and indicating the 

 best and up-to-date methods of control. Such a book it has been the object of the 

 author of this volume to supply, and it may be said at once that he has succeeded 



admirably He has a particularly clear and orderly style of presenting his facts, 



giving all the information necessary to the practical man without forcing him to sift out 

 unessential details. . . . Altogether the book deserves to become the standard reference 

 work for growers." — The Gardeners' Chronicle

"One of the best treatises issued in recent years on the breeding and feeding of 

 cattle. . . . Mr Mackenzie's main plea is for better bred, better handled, and more 

 economically finished animals. . . . The chapters on dual purpose cattle, pedigree

 Dr Marshall's chapter on physiology contains a great deal of valuable matter in small 

 compass." — The Agricultural Correspondent of The Glasgow Herald
