Fifth Edition, enlarged hy a Treatise on Brewing, 

 adapted to the Use of Private Families, 



" Mr. Moubray's little book on the Breeding, Rearing, and 

 Fattening all Kinas of Domestic Poultry and Pigs, is unques- 

 tionably the most practical Work on the subject in our lan- 

 guage. The Author's aim seems to be to avoid scientific 

 detail, and to convey his infonnation in plain and intelligible 

 terms. The convenience of a small poultry yard, — two or three 

 pigs, with a breeding sow, — and a cow for cream, milk, butter, 

 and cheese,— in an English country house, apj>ears indispensa- 

 ble ; and to point out how these may be obtained at a reason- 

 able expence, seems to have been Mr. Moubray's object. By 

 adopting the plan of his Work, any Family may furnish their 

 table with these luxuries at one tbird of the price they are 

 obliged to pay at the marVtts; and the Farmer and Bi^edei 

 may render it the source of considerabk profit.**— Fc^-wer'v
