A STANDARD WORK REVISED AND ENLARGED 



The Farm and Garden Rule Book 

 By liberty H. BAILEY 



Illttstrated, cloth, 1 21110, $2.00 



When Professor Bailey's " Horticulturist's Rule Book " was published nearly twenty-five 

 years ago, the volume became a standard agricultural work, running through sixteen editions. 

 Faking this book as a basis the author has now made a wholly new book, extending it to cover 

 the field of general farming, stock-raising, dairying, poultry-rearing, horticulture, gardening, 

 forestry, and the like. It is essentially a small cyclopedia of ready rules and references 

 packed full from cover to cover of condensed, meaty information and precepts on almost every 

 leading subject connected with country life.
