An Easy Poultry Guide. By Edward Brown. (C. Arthur Pearson.

ls. net.)—This little book is a reprint, with some addl. Lions, of Mr. Brown's Synopsis of Poultry Practice which has been put into Braille type for use by blinded men. Mr. Brown's opinion is that " from three to four times as many poultry could be kept as is now the case without interference with any crop or other stock." All proceeds from the sale of the book will be given to the funds of St. Dunstan's, Regent's Park, where blinded soldiers and sailors are trained, among other things, in the brooding and rearing of poultry.
