Abstract
No phase of agriculture has made more distinct advance within the last century than that which relates to the care and management of domestic animals. Certainly no other makes quite so attractive an appeal to human nature. This may explain the numerous text-books on this subject which appear from time to time. In one of the latest of these, by means of a judicious interweaving of theoretical principles and sound practical instruction, Messrs. Waters and King have succeeded in promoting that degree of co-ordination which should exist between the science and practice of stock farming.
