 THE CAMBRIDGE FARM INSTITUTE SERIES 



General Editors : Professor T. B. Wood, M.A., and E. J. Russell, D.Sc. 



The volumes of this series are intended to meet the needs of the many Farm Institutes 

 already in existence or about to be formed. They are intended for the average student 

 whose object is to farm, rather than for the exceptional man who wishes tb become an 

 agricultural expert. 



Every endeavour will be made to attain a high standard educationally, by training 

 students to take an intelligent interest in their daily work and to appreciate the beauty of 

 the common objects among which their Ufe will be passed. On the other hand the fact 

 that farm students must earn their living on the land will not be lost sight of.
