Practical Farming: In A Series Of Treatises By R.O. Pringle, Professor A.J. Murray, And Other Distinguished Agriculturalists. 2 Vols., The First In 5 Pt — Robert Oliphant Pringle. This 19th-century British handbook gathers practical husbandry guidance with foundational anatomy, physiology, and pathology related to farm animals. It surveys cattle fattening and meat estimation, including live weight versus carcass weight with breed- and sex-specific adjustments, and discusses meat cutting and regional market practices in London and Edinburgh. The work also outlines diseases of stock, digestive anatomy and function in both non-ruminants and ruminants, digestive diseases and treatments, and sections on liver, biliary, pancreas, respiratory system, blood and circulation, and nutrition and metabolism. Additional anatomy notes cover breed descriptions and horse breeds used for draught work. The volume is encyclopedic and didactic, emphasizing preventive management, dosage-based procedures, and practical measurement as tools for farmers, stockkeepers, and early veterinary practitioners. Preface and index entries guide readers through breeds, feeds, housing, physiology, diseases, and organs, reflecting a practical British farm context with continental influences and a focus on actionable, recipe-like guidance rather than narrative storytelling.
