Sheep Farming 



By JOHN A. CRAIG and F. R. MARSHALL 



Illustrated. Cloth, 12mo, $1.60 net 



This book deals with sheep husbandry as a phase of intensive 

 fanning. Recognizing that it is likely to be used by persons unfamil- 

 iar with sheep, the authors have worked from the standpoint of the 

 producer of the market stock rather than from the standpoint of 

 the professional breeder. The various breeds are discussed in such 

 a way as to enable the reader to select the kind that is most likely 

 to do well under his conditions and to acquaint him with the care 

 it is accustomed to and needs. The management of the flock in 

 the fall, winter, spring, and sjimmer seasons, the formation of the 

 flock, the selection of foundation stock, and the means of main- 

 taining a high standard of flock efiiciency are all discussed in sub- 

 sequent chapters. 



Principles of Fruit-Growing 



By Professor L. H. BAILEY 



New edition. Cloth, 12mo, Preparing 



Since the original pubUcation of this book, in 1897, it has gone 

 through many editions. The progress of fruit-growing in the mean- 

 time has been very marked and it has been necessary to completely 

 rewrite the work. The present issue of it brings the accounts of the 

 new practices and discoveries as they relate to fruit-growing up to 

 date. All of the text and practically all of the illustrations are new.
