Feeds & Feeding
by: Henry & Morrison
A handbook for the student and stockman. Essentials of the feeding, care
& management of farm animals - dairy cows, beef cattle, sheep, horses
& mules, swine, and poultry.
FOREWORD FROM THE 1919 EDITION:
"FEEDS AND FEEDING, FIRST PUBLISHED IN MARCH, 1898, WAS
RECEIVED WITH IMMEDIATE AND WIDESPREAD FAVOR BY PRACTICAL STOCKMEN, AS
WELL AS BY THE PROFESSORS AND STUDENTS OF ANIMAL HUSBANDRY IN AGRICULTURAL
COLLEGES AND SECONDARY SCHOOLS. THE PLAN OF THE BOOK HAD BEEN LAID ALONG
ORIGINAL LINES, AND NEITHER LABOR NOR EXPENSE WAS SPARED IN ITS PREPARATION.
IN 1910, AFTER NINE EDITIONS HAD COME FROM THE PRESS,
THE BOOK WAS ENTIRELY REWRITTEN AND IMPROVED IN MANY WAYS.
AGAIN IN 1915 THE BOOK WAS COMPLETELY REWRITTEN AND
ENLARGED TO INCLUDE THE RECENT INFORMATION, BOTH SCIENTIFIC AND PRACTICAL.
TO THIS REVISION PROFESSOR MORRISON, WHO HAD ASSISTED THRUOUT THE FIRST
REVISION AND WHO NOW BECAME JOINT AUTHOR, DEVOTED MUCH TIME, WITH A CORPS
OF TRAINED ASSISTANTS, DURING A PERIOD OF OVER TWO YEARS. THE FAVOR WITH
WHICH THIS SECOND REVISION WAS RECEIVED EXHAUSTED TWO LARGE EDITIONS IN
LESS THAN TWO YEARS AND NINE PRINTINGS OF THE LAST EDITION HAVE BEEN REQUIRED
IN RAPID SUCCESSION.
DURING THE PAST FEW YEARS EXCEEDINGLY IMPORTANT DISCOVERIES
HAVE BEEN MADE CONCERNING THE SCIENCE AND PRACTICE OF LIVE STOCK FEEDING.
FURTHERMORE, ECONOMIC CONDITIONS HAVE RADICALLY CHANGED. THEREFORE, PROFESSOR
MORRISON HAS AGAIN ENTIRELY REWRITTEN THE BOOK TO INCLUDE THE LATEST INFORMATION
AND TO ADAPT IT TO THE CHANGED ECONOMIC CONDITIONS SINCE THE WORLD WAR.
JUST AS IN THE PREVIOUS REVISION, THE RESULTS OF MANY IMPORTANT INVESTIGATIONS,
COMPLETED SO RECENTLY AS NOT YET TO BE IN PRINT, HAVE BEEN FURNISHED BY
SCIENTISTS THRUOUT THE COUNTRY, IN ORDER THAT THE FINDINGS MIGHT BE PRESENTED
IN THIS REVISION.
IT IS THE AIM TO GIVE FEEDS AND FEEDING AN UNBIASED
AND CONDENSED PRESENTATION OF THE MOST IMPORTANT FINDINGS OF THE INVESTIGATORS
OF BOTH THE OLD AND NEW WORLDS IN THE SCIENCE OF ANIMAL NUTRITION, TOGETHER
WITH THE MOST IMPORTANT RESULTS OF THE VAST NUMBER OF FEEDING TRIALS WHICH
HAVE BEEN CONDUCTED AT THE EXPERIMENT STATIONS IN THE UNITED STATES AND
OTHER COUNTRIES, THE WHOLE BEING ROUNDED OUT BY THE PRACTICAL EXPERIENCES
OF MANY OF THE LEADING STOCKMEN OF AMERICA. THE AUTHORS HAVE NOT RELIED
MERELY ON A THORO STUDY OF THE PUBLISHED INFORMATION ON NUTRITION AND
STOCK FEEDING, BUT HAVE GAINED PERSONAL CONTACT WITH CONDITIONS IN VARIOUS
DISTRICTS BY EXTENSIVE TRAVEL.
PART I PRESENTS BRIEFLY THE FUNDAMENTAL PRINCIPLES OF
ANIMAL NUTRITION, INCLUDING THE MOST RECENT DISCOVERIES OF THE SCIENTISTS.
THE BEARING OF THESE PRINCIPLES UPON THE PRACTICAL FEEDING OF LIVE STOCK
IS GIVEN ESPECIAL EMPHASIS. PARTICULAR ATTENTION IS GIVEN TO THE NEWER
DISCOVERIES IN NUTRITION, INCLUDING THE FUNCTIONS AND IMPORTANCE OF VITAMINES
AND MINERAL MATTER, AS WELL AS THE DIFFERENCES IN THE QUALITY OF FOOD
PROTEINS FROM VARIOUS SOURCES."
