STANDARD BOOKS, 
Stewart’s Shepherd’s Manual. 
A Valuable Practical Treatise on the Sheep for American rarmers 
and sheep growers. It isso plain that a farmer or a farmer’s son 
who has never kept a sheep, may learn fromits pages how to 
manage a flock successfully, and yet so complete that even the ex- 
perienced shepherd may gather many suggestions from it. The 
results of personal experience of some years with the characters - 
of the various modern breeds of sheep, and the sheep raising capa- 
bilities of many portions of our extensive territory and that of 
Canada—and the careful study of the diseases to which our sheep 
are chiefly subject, with those by which they may eventually be 
affiicted through unforseen accidents—as well as the methods of 
management called for under our circumstances, are carefully 
described. By Henry Stewart. Illustrated. Cloth, 12mo. 1.50 
Wright’s Practical Poultry-Keeper. 
By L. Wright. A complete and standard guide to the management 
of poultry, for domestic use, the markets or exhibition. It suits at 
once the plain poulterer, who must make the business pay, and the 
chicken fancier whose taste is for gay plumage and strange, bright 
birds. Illustrated. Cloth, 12mo. $2.00 
Harris on the Pig. 
New Edition. Revised and enlarged by the author. The points of 
the various English and American breeds are thoroughly discussed, 
and the great advantage of using thoroughbred males clearly 
shown. The work is equally valuable to the farmer who keeps but 
few pigs, and to the breeder on an extensive scale. By Joseph 
Harris. Illustrated. Cloth, 12mo. 1.50 
The Farmer’s Veterinary Adviser. 
A guide to the Prevention and Treatment of Disease in Domestic

inarian. It is brought up to date and treats of the Prevention of 
Disease as wellas of the Remedies. By Prof. Jas. Law. Cloth.
