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, bred by the Queen, is a work of art."--_The Times._

the most exhaustive work of reference in the English language on

==> _The object of this work is to enable those who consult it to help themselves to the law; and thereby to dispense, as far as possible, with professional assistance and advice.

With this book at hand it is believed that many a_ SIX-AND-EIGHTPENCE _may be saved; many a wrong redressed; many a right reclaimed; many a law suit avoided; and many an evil abated. The work has established itself as the standard legal adviser of all classes, and has also made a reputation for itself as a useful book of reference for lawyers residing at a distance from law libraries, who are glad to have at hand a work embodying recent decisions and enactments._
