Paperback. Condition: New. Print on Demand. This book provides comprehensive guidance on efficiently using annual plants for grazing cattle on California's vast foothill ranges. The author draws on data gathered from a 13-year study conducted at the San Joaquin Experimental Range, a large tract of land supporting a representative mix of annual plants typical of those found on many foothill ranges. The study examined plant growth, grazing capacity, and how plant growth and cattle production were affected by different degrees of grazing intensity. The book's findings provide valuable insights into the seasonal pattern of plant growth and the nutritional value of the plants. This information can help ranchers optimize their grazing operations to match forage plant growth, allowing them to make the most of available resources and minimize the need for supplemental feeding. The book also discusses the importance of range site classification in estimating grazing capacity and highlights the need for flexibility in stocking rates to accommodate year-to-year fluctuations in forage production. By understanding the specific characteristics of different range sites and how they affect plant growth and grazing capacity, ranchers can better manage their operations and achieve more efficient use of annual plants. This book is a reproduction of an important historical work, digitally reconstructed using state-of-the-art technology to preserve the original format. In rare cases, an imperfection in the original, such as a blemish or missing page, may be replicated in the book. print-on-demand item.…

The present collection offers a window into the literary world of American poet and humorist Ogden Nash (1902-1971). It is comprised of 239 volumes published between 1886 and 1971, among which are numerous presentation and association copies. All books in the present collection come from the shared personal library of Ogden and Frances Nash. The collection spans poetry, humor, light verse, and literary criticism, and includes a significant number of first and limited editions, often in original bindings or dust jackets. Of particular note are six books inscribed by Nash to his wife, Frances (including five authored by Nash, one of which is in an "Author's Copy" half-leather binding). Included in the collection are 59 works by Nash, three of which feature edits to the text in Nash's hand. Twenty-seven of these Nash publications are Author's copies bound in half-leather. There are an additional 48 volumes bearing inscriptions to Nash from other authors and poets, most notably twelve volumes inscribed by S.J. Perelman. Among the 132 uninscribed volumes included here, 45 bear Ogden Nash's ownership inscription (10 bear the ownership inscription of Frances Nash). The number and range of authorial inscriptions represented in the present collections reflect Nash's wide-ranging literary friendships and professional associations. Notable among these are twelve warmly inscribed titles by humorist S.J. Perelman, whose acerbic wit is on display in a series of affectionate, playful, and sometimes satirical inscriptions to both Nash and his wife, Frances. These volumes also reflect Perelman and Nash's shared experiences in Hollywood and the literary scene of mid-century America. Other highlights include inscriptions from John Betjeman, Christopher Morley, E.C. Bentley, A.P. Herbert, David McCord, William Plumer Fowler, and Holger Lundbergh, among others-each evidencing Nash's influence and the esteem in which he was held across literary and cultural circles in the U.S. and the U.K. O.…
