THE 
SOILING OF CATTLE, 
Illustrated from Experience, 
And an Address, 
Containing suggestions which may be useful to Farmers, 
By JOSIAH QUINCY. 
WITH A MEMOIR OF THE AUTHOR, 
By EDWARD QUINCY. 
By a mistaken notion, that a considerable extent ofland is 
requisite to enable a farmer to keep many head of cattle, a 
most wasteful proportion of it is sometimes retained for the 
sole purpose of pasturage ; and thus, compared with its in¬ 
herent productive power, made useless. This little book 
cannot tail to be read with interest by many a farmer.

flat tlie Press says of tlie Lands. 
“S. F. F.,” Special Correspondent of Illinois 
Slate Journal , August 2Stli, 1875, says of Adams 
County, Nebraska: 
“It would do your eyes good to look upon the 
grain-fields of Grasslioppered Nebraska. Not to 
see growing crops that are still in jeopardy, but 
gathered sheaves of wheat and ripening fields of 
Corn.” 
“ In order to obtain a correct impression in re¬ 
gard to tlie appearance of this portion of Ne¬ 
braska, you have only to recall the appearance of 
* Grand Prairie ’ in Illinois as it was twenty years 
ago.” 
“I am writing this letter at the house of a 
friend, Mr. Peter Griffith, who resides six miles 
from Juniata. He came here from Illinois eighteen 
months ago; secured 160 acres of R. R. Land, (the 
homesteads were all taken,) built a neat frame 
house, put up a sod stable, broke fifty acres of 
ground, raised fair crop on sod and lias a good 
crop this year, is now in easy circumstances, with 
a sure prospect of a bright future.”
