The Young Farmer: Some Things He Should Know
Hunt, Thomas Forsyth
Agriculture
By C. B. LANE. The author of this practical little book is to be
congratulated on the successful manner in which he has treated so
important a subject. It has been prepared for the use of dairy
students, producers and handlers of milk, and all who make dairying a
business. Its purpose is to present in a clear and concise manner
various business methods and systems which will help the dairyman to
reap greater profits. This book meets the needs of the average dairy
farmer, and if carefully followed will lead to successful dairying. It
may also be used as an elementary textbook for colleges, and
especially in short-course classes. Illustrated. 5x7 inches. 300
pages. Cloth.
Net, $1.25
=Questions and Answers on Buttermaking=
By CHAS A. PUBLOW. This book is entirely different from the usual type
of dairy books, and is undoubtedly in a class by itself. The entire
subject of butter-making in all its branches has been most thoroughly
treated, and many new and important features have been added. The
tests for moisture, salt and acid have received special attention, as
have also the questions on cream separation, pasteurization,
commercial starters, cream ripening, cream overrun, marketing of
butter, and creamery management. Illustrated. 5x7 inches. 100 pages.

=Questions and Answers on Milk and Milk Testing=
By CHAS. A. PUBLOW, and HUGH C. TROY. A book that no student in the
dairy industry can afford to be without. No other treatise of its kind
is available, and no book of its size gives so much practical and
useful information in the study of milk and milk products. Illustrated.
5x7 inches. 100 pages. Cloth.
Net, $0.50
=Soils=
By CHARLES WILLIAM BURKETT, Director Kansas Agricultural Experiment
Station. The most complete and popular work of the kind ever
published. As a rule, a book of this sort is dry and uninteresting,
but in this case it reads like a novel. The author has put into it his
individuality. The story of the properties of the soils, their
improvement and management, as well as a discussion of the problems of
crop growing and crop feeding, make this book equally valuable to the
farmer, student and teacher. Illustrated. 303 pages. 5-1/2x8 inches.
Cloth. Net, $1.25
=Weeds of the Farm Garden=
By L. H. PAMMEL. The enormous losses, amounting to several hundred
million dollars annually in the United States, caused by weeds
stimulate us to adopt a better system of agriculture. The weed
question is, therefore, a most important and vital one for American
farmers. This treatise will enable the farmer to treat his field to
remove weeds. The book is profusely illustrated by photographs and
drawings made expressly for this work, and will prove invaluable to
every farmer, land owner, gardener and park superintendent. 5x7
inches. 300 pages. Cloth.
