Sheep Breeds and Breeding is a definite guide to breeding sheep, dealing with all aspects of the subject including selection, feeding, management, housing, illnesses and ailments, and much more. Concentrating on the sheep of the British Isles, it will be of considerable utility to British farmers and those occupied with breeding sheep for profit or pleasure. Contents include: Breeds and Breeding , The Importance of Sheep Farming , Classification , Origin , Improving the Breeds , Long-Wools and Short-Wools , Medium-Wools , Breeds Compared , Effect of Soil Climate and Indigenous Herbage , Sheep on Arable Land , Value of a Strain of Cotswold Blood , etc. Many vintage books such as this are increasingly scarce and expensive.
