A smallholding is a small farm which normally supports a single family through the growing of cash crops and subsistence crops. This vintage book contains a comprehensive guide to planning, establishing, and maintaining a smallholding for pleasure or profit. Written in simple language and profusely illustrated, Practical Hints for the Holding constitutes a must-have guide to farmers new and old, and would make for a useful addition to collections of related literature. Contents include: Practical Hints for the Holding, Taking a Holding, Hints for the Holding, Michaelmas Entry, The Smallholder's water Supply, How to Start a Mixed Holding, Live-stock on Small Holdings, A Six-Acre Holding, How to Lay Out a Garden, A Profitable Plantation, etc. 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 a modern, high-quality edition complete with a specially-commissioned new introduction on kitchen gardening.
