The Nutrition of Farm Animals

Abstract

GREAT advances have been made in the study of animal nutrition since Dr. Armsby first began his investigations at the State College of Pennsylvania and wrote his “Manual of Cattle Feeding” and his “Principles of Animal Nutrition.” He has now brought together the material and presented it anew. There has been no fundamental upheaval since the last edition of his earlier book appeared, but there have been remarkable changes in details, and in consequence the picture is now very different from what it was, though it is still recognisable in its main features.

The Nutrition of Farm Animals.

By Dr. H. P. Armsby. Pp. xvii + 743. (New York: The Macmillan Co.; London: Macmillan and Co.,. Ltd., 1917.) Price 11s. net.
