Paperback. Zustand: Very Good. 4th Revised Edition (1968) CLEAN, no marks. Lightly used if at all. Small corner piece of title page has been cut away - likely removing previous owners name. 64 pages illustrations ; 28cm. . . . . . . . The 1968 edition, prepared by the Subcommittee on Sheep Nutrition of the National Research Council's Committee on Animal Nutrition, consists of 64 pages, including tables and illustrations. This handbook synthesizes the latest research and expert recommendations as of the late 1960s, offering systematic guidance on the nutrient needs of sheep at various stages of growth, reproduction, and production, including maintenance, gestation, lactation, and growth phases. The fourth edition marked key advances by adopting the metric system for nutrient recommendations and updating tables of feed composition. It provided practical feeding standards and reference tables necessary for formulating rations and evaluating dietary adequacy, helping sheep producers, nutritionists, and researchers ensure optimal health, productivity, and prevention of nutritional deficiencies in sheep flocks. This edition also reflected the scientific consensus at the time on best practices, nutrient metrics, and the critical variables influencing sheep nutrition.

Addressed to 'My dear Popie' and signed 'Yours / Clarke' [sic]. In the previous year CR had published his autobiography 'With a Twinkle in my Eye', and he is now looking for an 'opinion' from MP that he can use for publicity purposes. 'I was so pleased with your letter that on reflection, I am writing to ask if you would be good enough to write me another with your opinion of my book.' He explains that he wouldn't have bothered MP had he not said that he enjoyed the book, 'and a line from you, he most famous of all biographers would be most valuable to me'. He doesn't want to come across as a 'bloody nuisance', but knows that his publishers 'would appreciate it'. He signs off, with reference to a notable theatre impressario: 'Yours, till Tom Arnold takes over Malaya'.

Legal Definitions: A Collection of Words and Phrases as Applied and Defined by the Courts, Lexicographers and Authors of Books on Legal Subjects.

With a New Foreword by Bryan A. Garner, President, LawProse, Inc. Hardcover. New. $195. * Judge Benjamin W. Pope [1853-1923] compiled this law dictionary in 1919-1920, and included citations to many cases that came before Illinois courts. "Today, although the book is held in many institutional libraries, it is scarce in rare-book circles. Only two copies that I know have been offered for sale in the used-book trade over the past decade, and one of those was a broken set (volume two alone). Only about 80 libraries worldwide are known to have a copy. Few private libraries own one. So it is once again a boon to legal scholarship and legal lexicography that a Lawbook Exchange reprint makes it possible for more libraries and collectors to own a valuable historical asset. In these pages, researchers can learn a good deal about many of the terminological issues that early-20th-century courts were deciding. That is useful information for which we owe Pope a debt of gratitude." -- Bryan A. Garner, Foreword, v.

In den WarenkorbFrom the papers of W. J. Macqueen-Pope (see his entry in the Oxford DNB). Addressed in autograph to MP care of the BBC, and then forwarded to his office, 359 Strand. Pencil annotation by MP. On one side of an unillustrated postmarked printed British 'Indian Postage' air mail card with Indian postage stamp. In good condition, aged and lightly-worn. Also in Singh's autograph is the salutation to 'Dear Pope' and the valediction 'Your sincere / St Nihal Singh ST NIHAL SINGH'. He is addressing MP 'informally in the belief that you are an old - and esteemed - acquaintance who in the years of my London journalism, gave his working hours to Rothermere Press and his leisure to Shakespeare and used to give me the pleasure of his company now and again'. He continues: 'SHOULD it be a case of mistaken identity (a phrase that must have often leant from your lips), let me hasten to ensure you that your broadcasts invariably delight us. You often speak of players whom we knew -- some of them in private life as well as on the stage. Your voice as we receive it is clear and pleasant.' Carbon copy of MP's typed reply, 9 November 1951: 1p, 4to. Aged and worn, with creasing and wear at foot, but no loss of text. He believes that Singh has him mixed up with 'T. Michael Pope, who was a journalist and a friend of mine although no relation. I have always worked in the theatre, although for many years now my job therein has been a combination of management and publicity which always brought me into the closest contact with Fleet Street, and I feel sure we met.' Singh's postacard has given him 'great joy. Nowadays I write many books all on the subject of the Theatre. I don't know whether they ever get to India but if they do, I am sure you would like them.'.
