I What Would You Do? 



If Your Hens Stopped Laying?

 If Your Best Cows Were Ailing ? 



These are but a few of a ttiousand problems tliat may arise any day and 

 cause you loss, trouble, and expense. Do you know how to solve them all r 

 Jacob Biggie tells you in his handy Farm Library, and gives you, besides, a host 

 of other useful facts and pointers that every person on the farm should know. 

 His books — ten in all — are a treasury of reliable information based on practical, 

 every-day experience, not on theory. Each of the books covers its subject ex- 

 haustively — authoritatively — and is written in a delightfully readable and inter- 

 esting style. Jacob Biggie has for 30 years been a constant contributor to the 

 Farm Journal, and, like this best-liked, most widely read American Farm Paper, 

 his books are concise, comprehensive, up-to-date, profusely illustrated, four of 

 them with handsome colored plates. 



The Horse Book covers the subject thor- 

 oughly— health and disease, history, training, care. 55,000 

 copies sold. 



The Sheep Book tells which breedsare most profitable, 

 etc. It will put you right on the sheep question. 



The Poultry Book is tremendously popular— by far the 

 best handbook for tlie fanner's Hock. Sixth edition. Six- 

 teen colored plates. 



The Cow Book tells how to make dairying pay; full of 

 cow wisdom; condensed, and accurate. Don't wait until 

 the cow is sick. 



The Swine Book— breeding, feeding, fattening, and 



marketing, with chapters on the diseases. The whole story. 



The Orchard Book is crowded with new fruit facts and 

 fine illustrations. By an expert. Twenty fine colored 

 plates.. 



The Garden Book tells how the author made money in 

 the business — a remarkable record. 



The other books are like these — stuffed to bursting 

 with facts, advice, and practical ideas. 



The Berry, Pet, and Health Books are fine, every one. 

 Each book is a handy size to slip Into the pocket and con- 

 sult during day's work. They cost only 50 cents per toI- 

 ume, postpaid; $5.00 for the set of ten.
