Paperback. Condition: New. Print on Demand. This book presents the findings of an experiment conducted by the Department of Dairy Husbandry to determine the minimum amount of milk necessary to raise a dairy calf successfully. The author, an expert in the field, provides a detailed account of the experiment and discusses the implications of its results for dairy farmers and breeders. The book also includes information on the importance of raising heifer calves to replenish dairy herds and maintain the quality of milk production. The author emphasizes that despite the common belief that raising calves is too expensive, the cost of milk required to raise a calf successfully is relatively low, especially when compared to the long-term benefits of having a healthy and productive dairy herd. This book is essential reading for dairy farmers, breeders, and anyone interested in the science of animal husbandry.

Hardcover. Condition: Fair. Hardcover. 9.5" x 6". iv, (3)-51, (1); 20 pp. Engraved frontispiece and 4 engraved bank-note plates (Plates 1-3 bound before the text, Plate 4 between pp. 44-45); woodcut illustrations in the text. Original black blind-stamped dotted-grain cloth with ornamental frame and oval panel, front board lettered "MONEY" in gilt. Printed by John F. Trow, New York. A complete copy of this Civil War-era counterfeit detector from the Eastman business-college network. Edwin J. Wilber and Edward P. Eastman were teachers and principals in the Eastman colleges, which trained clerks in practical banking with their own "college currency." The work reworks H. G. Eastman's Treatise, first published in St. Louis in the 1850s, and appeared just before the Secret Service was founded in 1865. The frontispiece is a view of Poughkeepsie, "The City of Schools," published by Eastman National Business College. Plates 1-3, engraved by the New York Bank Note Co., show genuine vignettes, counters, and lathe-work, along with a specimen $1 Exchange Bank of New Orleans note dated January 1865 and engraved for the authors. Plate 4 is a numbered comparison sheet of genuine and counterfeit vignettes, portraits, counters, lathe-work, and lettering, keyed to the text. Its lettering specimens bear the imprint of W. L. Ormsby, the noted New York bank-note engraver. The text runs from ancient money, Continental currency, and the Bank of England to a feature-by-feature anatomy of genuine and counterfeit engraving. That anatomy covers hair, eyes, drapery, landscapes, lathe-work, lettering, ink, signatures, photographed bills, and the new fractional currency. It closes with an appeal for "business education," the Eastman colleges' stock in trade. The opening chapter calls "Guineas, Eagles, Dollars" "the Trinity in which all believe." Called for in the contents and issued with the book is a separately paginated reprint of Waldo Abbott's "Making Money. III. The American Bank Note Company," from Harper's New Monthly Magazine for February 1862. It is an illustrated tour of the firm's Wall Street works, during which Treasury Secretary Chase is glimpsed visiting while the company rushes out the first Union Treasury notes.
