HIS is a new, practical and complete pres- 

 entation of the whole subject of agricul- 

 ture in its broadest sense. It is designed 

 for the use of agriculturists who desire 

 up-to-date, reliable information on all 

 matters pertaining to crops and stock, but more 

 particularly for the actual farmer. The volume 

 contains 



Detailed directions for the culture of every 

 important field, orchard, and garden crop 



grown in America, together with descriptions of 

 their chief insect pests and fungous diseases, and 

 remedies for their control. It contains an account 

 of modern methods in feeding and handling all 

 farm stock, including poultry. The diseases which 

 affect different farm animals and poultry are de- 

 scribed, and the most recent remedies suggested for 

 controlling them. 



Every bit of this vast mass of new and useful 

 information is authoritative, practical, and easily 

 found, and no effort has been spared to include all 

 desirable details. There are between 6,000 and 7,000 

 topics covered in these references, and it contains 

 700 royal 8vo pages and nearly 500 superb half- 

 tone and other original illustrations, making the 

 most perfect Cyclopedia of Agriculture ever at- 

 tempted.
