The conseoieuce of a small poullry -yard— two or three pigs, with a breeding son — and a cow, for cream, milb, butter, and cheese — in an English country-hoDle, appears indispensable j and lo point out Low these may be obtained, at a reasonable expense, seems to have been Mr. Moubray's object By adopting the plan of his work, any ramity may furnish their table with these lumries at one-third of the price they are obliged lo pay at the markets; and the farmer and breeder may render it the source of considerable profit. He ia evidently a good practical Farmer, thoroughly conversant with Itural Economy in all its branches ; his book is written in a light, lively. Kitchener style, and, like the works of that celebrated ga»tronome, conveys, at least, a^ much amusement as information. Were any testimony wanted, as to its practical utility, it would be found in the declaiatioa of an eminent rural economist, Sir John Sinclair, who pronounces it ' the best Work hitherto priated' on the subject of which it treats."— Farmen' Jaicrnal.
