Abstract
THIS small primer on dairy work is in several respects a contrast to some of the books and pamphlets relating to dairy matters which have appeared within the last two or three years. Many of these have had too many points in common with a dairy utensil manufacturer's catalogue,and the information they contain has not always been either condensed or trustworthy. It is therefore a pleasure to take up Prof. Muir's little manual, which gives in small compass a great deal of information likely to be of value to every one interested in the production and use of milk. Apparently the book is intended for those who, having practical knowledge of the management of milk and its products, desire further knowledge of the principles upon which their practice is based, together with hints as to the best means of utilising their commodity according to the demands of their own particular market.
Manual of Dairy Work.
By James Muir, Professor of Agriculture in the Yorkshire College, Leeds. 93 pp. (London: Macmillan and Co., 1893.)
