Cloth, i2tno, illustrated 



This book has been prepared to meet the demand incident to 

 the progress made in live stock husbandry for a more comprehen- 

 sive, thorough, and systematic study of the judging of animals. The 

 effort has been made in its preparation to take the student and 

 stockman a step further than they have gone heretofore. Part I 

 introduces the principles upon which the practice of judging is 

 founded ; Part II applies to the practice of judging, definition and 

 procedure the features of animal form to be considered, the means 

 of making observations and practice judging by the score card, 

 demonstrations, comparative and competitive judging. The bal- 

 ance of the work is devoted to special judging, one part being given 

 to each of the following : horses, cattle, sheep, swine, the judging of 

 breeding animals and live stock shows. The volume is profusely 

 illustrated, typical representatives of the types and breeds being 

 shown in untouched photographs of animals to which championship 

 honors have been awarded.

The cereal grains and buckwheat are described carefully. Their 

 methods of cultivation and of handling and marketing are thoroughly 

 discussed. Among the grains thus treated are wheat, oats, rye, 

 barley, and the minor crops. This book will prove an admirable 

 complement to Montgomery's The Corn Crops. Both these books 

 are intended primarily for use as texts in college courses, and may 

 very well be used in conjunction in the general course on grain 

 crops. These books are also^f distinct interest and value to the 

 farmer.
