Farm Vermin, Helpful and Hurtful

About this book

First published in 1894, "Farm Vermin, Helpful and Hurtful" is a collection of articles and essays written by various authors on the subject of the wild critters to be found on and around a farm. The articles cover everything from rats and bats to weasels and badgers, offering general advice and information on their benefits and hindrances, as well as how they should be properly managed. This book is highly recommended for both existing and prospective farmers alike, and it would make for a fine addition to collections of allied literature. Contents include: "Voles, by Sir Herbert Maxwell, Bart, M.P.", "The Weasel Kind, by O. V. Aplin", "Fox and Badger, by John Cordeaux", "Rats and Mice, by Cecil Warburton, M.A., and John Nisbet, D. Oec.", "Hares and Rabbits by C. B. Whitehead, B.A.", "Enemies to Woodlands and Nurseries, I., by John Nisbet, D. Oec.", Enemies to Woodlands and Nurseries, II., by John Nisbet, D. Oec.", "Mole and Hedgehog, by O. V. Aplin", and "Bats, by the Editor". Many vintage books such as this are becoming increasingly scarce and expensive. It is with this in mind that we are republishing this volume now in an affordable, high-quality edition for the enjoyment of modern readers.
