Originally published London 1920. The author was a well known livestock judge and wrote several acclaimed books on sheep and farming. This book was particularly well received by sheep farmers in Britain and abroad. The well illustrated contents include:- Indigenous Breeds - Influence of the Breed Maker - Breeds and their Modification - Sheep Census - Down and Horn Breeds - Hill and Heath Breeds - Longwools - Crosses and Cross Breeding - Selection of a Breed - Points and Nomenclature of Sheep - The Ram and Ewe - Food and Feeding - A Year with Ewes - Tegs - Shearing - Management - Management on Chalks, Grass, Marshland and Hill - British Wools - Diseases - Sections of the Flock. Etc. Many of the earliest farming books, particularly those dating back to the 1900s and before, are now extremely scarce and increasingly expensive. Home Farm Books are republishing many of these classic works in affordable, high quality, modern editions, using the original text and artwork.
