Excerpt from Productive Feeding of Farm Animals The general interest in matters pertaining to the farm and farm life that has been evidenced in recent years is one of the wholesome signs of the times. Farm animals have shared in this increasing interest, and the love of fine stock, as well as the desire to surround the animals with conditions that will secure the best results for the care and labor bestowed upon them, has been a potent factor in the development of animal industry in this country during the last generation. For permanent and fruitful advance in agricultural matters, it is agreed that the boy must be interested; must learn about the realities and problems of farm life; must be taught how to meet these and how to adjust himself to changes in new conditions of farming that may arise. Hence we find that courses in agriculture are being introduced into more and more schools; the agricultural college no longer has a monopoly of teaching animal husbandry, field crops, horticulture, etc. County agricultural schools and agricultural high schools, as well as graded schools in a number of States, are giving their pupils an opportunity to study the underlying principles of farm operations. Until recently there were no text-books that met the needs of these different classes of students. This want is now, however, gradually being filled, and in some cases there is already a choice of carefully-prepared books, well adapted for the purpose intended. This volume has been prepared with a view to furnishing students in agricultural schools and colleges, as well as practical farmers, with a concise discussion of the main principles relating to the feeding of farm animals and of the various feeding stuffs available to our stockmen. So far as possible, different feeding practices for the various classes of farm animals have also been given and discussed, pointing the way to profitable methods of stock feeding under the variety of conditions existing on American farms. The treatment of this subject in text-book form presents peculiar difficulties. In view of the immense amount of research work that has accumulated and is being conducted and published every year, at public expense and otherwise, it would be easy to present a bewildering mass of detailed experimental evidence as to the merits of different feeds and methods of feeding. This would not, however, serve the purpose of either teacher or student. About the Publisher Forgotten Books publishes hundreds of thousands of rare and classic books.

Excerpt from Feeding of Farm Animals The great interest which is being taken in the feeding of animals and the constant demands which are being made on this Station for information along these lines, has made it imperative for us to issue this Bulletin, setting forth the general principles underlying all animal feeding, together with such data and comments as have seemed most essential for the farmer and stockman. Notwithstanding that the majority of the experiment stations have issued bulletins covering the same Subject, the climatic conditions obtaining in California and the wide difference in our foods from those of the older States render it necessary that this Bulletin be issued to deal more intelligently with the environments peculiar to this State.

Excerpt from Farm Foods: Or the Rational Feeding of Farm Animals As long ago as the year 1868, when the first edition of my 'Practical System of Manuring' appeared, I had pledged myself to bring out a companion volume, in which the nutrition of the body and the economy of Farm Food-stuffs should be treated on similar lines. But at the same time I expressed my intention of reserving the work until the principles underlying its teaching had been placed upon a clear and systematic basis. The science of Agricultural Dietetics was then beginning to assume definite proportions, and from the great energy with which it was being prosecuted it seemed more than probable that in a very short time it would attain a position which would enable it to offer practice a firmer and sounder support for the acceptance of the latest scientific principles. In my opinion that time has now come. Thanks mainly to the rich harvest of results which has rewarded the zealous labours of the Munich School of Physiology, the general laws of animal nutrition, as well as those of flesh- and fat-formation in the animal body, are now clear and patent; the necessary investigations which were so admirably executed by Voit and Pettenkofer have attained a present conclusion.

Excerpt from Feeds and Feeding Abridged: The Essentials of the Feeding, Care, and Management of Farm, Animals, Including Poultry, Adapted and Condensed From Feeds and Feeding (Eighteenth Edition) "Feeds and Feeding," first published in March, 1898, was received with widespread favor by practical stockmen and by the teachers and students of animal husbandry in this country. Since this date seventeen editions have come from the press, and the book has been twice entirely rewritten to include new and important data. Many stockmen rely upon "Feeds and Feeding" as the guide in their feeding operations, and it is the standard text on stock feeding in practically all the agricultural colleges in this country. As Feeds and Feeding covers the feeding and care of each class of live stock in a comprehensive manner, it is of necessity a large book, containing much detailed information. With the rapid development of special agricultural courses in secondary schools and of short courses in the agricultural colleges, a demand arose for a simplified and condensed edition of the work. In response to this demand "Feeds and Feeding, Abridged," was prepared in 1917 by the undersigned, with the editorial aid of Professor W. A. Henry. The book was based chiefly upon Feeds and Feeding but the subject matter was so condensed and simplified as to adapt it for use in brief courses in stock feeding. Omitting topics of purely scientific interest, the most essential facts concerning animal nutrition and the practical feeding, care, and management of farm animals were presented in the simplest possible terms. The immediate and widespread demand for the book has been a pleasant surprise, five printings having already been required. This edition has been carefully revised to meet the changed conditions since the World War and to include important new information on the feeding of live stock. In most brief books on stock feeding the care and management of stock receive scant attention, but in "Feeds and Feeding, Abridged" these subjects, which are of the utmost practical importance, are fully treated. To aid the teacher and the student, each chapter closes with questions covering the subject matter, and 116 engravings illustrate some of the most important points. Since the subject of poultry feeding is commonly included in live stock feeding: in secondary schools, chapters have been added on the feeding and care of poultry. Altho thus covering a larger field, "Feeds and Feedings, Abridged" contains but half as much text matter as "Feeds and Feeding."
