⁂ Opinions of the Press on the New Edition.

“Dr. Fream is to be congratulated on the successful attempt he has made to give us a work which will at once become the standard classic of the farm practice of the country. We believe that it will be found that it has no compeer among the many works at present in existence.... The illustrations are admirable, while the frontispiece, which represents the well-known bull, New Year’s Gift, owned by the Queen, is a work of art.”—The Times.

“The book must be recognised as occupying the proud position of the most exhaustive work of reference in the English language on the subject with which it deals.”—Athenæum.

“The most comprehensive guide to modern farm practice that exists in the English language to-day.... The book is one that ought to be on every farm and in the library of every land owner.”—Mark Lane Express.

“In point of exhaustiveness and accuracy the work will certainly hold a pre-eminent and unique position among books dealing with scientific agricultural practice. It is, in fact, an agricultural library of itself.”—North British Agriculturist.

“A compendium of authoritative and well-ordered knowledge on every conceivable branch of the work of the live stock farmer; probably without an equal in this or any other country.”—Yorkshire Post.
