Cheap and good husbandry for the well-ordering of all beasts and fowls, and for the general cure of their diseases
Cheap and good husbandry is a 1676 London farming manual by Gervase Markham, printed for G. Sawbridge and aimed at farmers and stockkeepers tending livestock and poultry. Its pictures are small and plain: a large decorated initial T opening the text, a simple woodcut of a rounded wooden tool with a long handle, and a shield-shaped emblem with an open book; a designer might borrow the ornamental initial and the compact emblem style.
