Paying Poultry. (William A. May. ls.)—In this volume we have

lectures given at the National Poultry Show under the auspices of the Utility Poultry Club, together with contributions to Farm, Field, and Fireside from the pen of Mr. W. Cook, to whom the famous Orpington breed is due. It is full of valuable matter, good advice, &e. Men who would carry on the business on a modest scale, for we cannot all have farms in which to experiment, will find this a valuable handbook.
