• Excerpt from The Country Gentleman's Magazine, Vol. 10: With One Hundred and Twenty-Five EngravingsTo avoid being misunderstood, I shall commence by explaining the meaning which I have found it necessary to attach to certain terms, such as population. The statistician who endeavours to estimate the production of a country by the population which it nourishes cannot confine himself to the men, women, and children who inhabit it. he must consider what other animals are also fed on the native produce. In England, and indeed all over Western Europe, we have practically only human beings and horses to feed, for although cattle, sheep, and pigs are fed on the produce of the land, it is merely to bring them into a fit state to be eaten by man, or otherwise to furnish food for him.About the PublisherForgotten Books publishes hundreds of thousands of rare and classic books.
