“ This is the great health-book of Dr. Frank 8. 
Billings, and it is not too much to promise that a 
study and observance of its teachings, that are the 
results of actual experiments, will work a revolu- 
tion in the sanitary condition of the United States. 
. . . It is a work for all stock-brceders and for all 
families.”’— Louisville Courier-Journal. 
“This is the title of a work just given to the 
world, and in its pages subjects of vital interest 
are treated of in a lucid and perspicuous manner. 
. .. These well-established statements should 
arouse the public feeling to provide that boards of 
health should be careful and efficient in the exer- 
cise of their duties, as also that, as individuals, 
every one should labor to take good care of him- 
self, his family, and his domestic animals.’’—WVew 
York Times. 
“This handsome volume does great, credit to 
its author and publishers It is an excellent book 
i most respects, an extraordinary one in many, 
and an objectionable one in very few. It at the 
very least should be in the libraries of every na- 
tional, State, city, town, and county Board of 
Health. It certainly should be studied by every 
teacher and scientific practitioner of veterinary 
medicine, and will be of great service to ever 
reat stock and cattle holder and dealer... . It 
is evidently written by a man of great ability and 
high culture, well versed both in the literature and 
science as well as the practical bearings of his sub- 
ject. Such a man has a great and inalienable right 
to have opinions of his own ; and he has them, and 
does not hesitate to express them. . .. We hone 
and believe that the volume will be received b 
all, except perhaps by those especially attacked, 
with the great welcome that its author and pub-. 
lishers must expect for it. It will take its stand: 
alongside of the popular treatises of Hilliard and 
Robertson, and on all purely scientific matters will 
lead them. LKither of these works, together with 
Dr. Billings’s, will make almost a complete library 
on veterinary medicine.” —Journal of Comparative 
Medicine ani Surgery.
