Sir Charles Cameron feeds the farm itself: the chemistry of food applied to cattle, the growth and composition of animals, and the science of profitable feeding. The stock-feeder's manual brings laboratory rigor to the byre and trough. Agricultural chemistry for the working Victorian farmer. Balance the ration scientifically.

Every copy includes a printable PDF edition, a beautifully typeset book you can print, mark up in the margins, and keep on your shelf. Yours the moment you own it.
