THE 



"Bo-Peep " 



This uxquisilely wrnuirht steel plate cuifraviiiij, by 

 tlie well-kmjwu aitist, J. A. J. Wilcox, fi'.mi a 

 paintinc by that world famous (ierman artiet, 

 Meyer Von Bremen, is one of the most beautiful 

 and artistic ensraviuKS ever published. A mother 

 and her child are away from the dusty town for an 

 afternoon's rc( reatiiii.' in the "Sylvan Wild" of Ger- 

 many; ijolden pai^es are added to lift^'s book of 

 "Happy Hours," It is a genuine steel engravinu:, 

 and so excelleut in subject and body that its pos- 

 sessor can never outgrow it — become he or she how- 

 ever icsthetic in art. Printed on 2.'x!iS paper. Price 

 ?3.00. Published by H. H. C'urrau vNl Co., 23 School 

 street, Boston, Mass. Apr-It. 



Tile Cooley Creamer 



This method of "decp-settiu!;' of milk" is coming 

 into so general use, that at the recent dairy fair 

 in New York, it was not shown as a "novelty," 

 but took its place as a common and indispensable 

 adjunct to the dairy. With a Cooley Creamer a 

 dairyman is entirely independent ofthe weather, and 

 bis product is unilorm at all times. It is in this, as 

 well as in its convenience, that the Cooley process of 

 setting milk commends itself to all who make but- 

 ter. 



From our foreign exchanges we infer that it has 

 been quite extensively introduced into use in Great 

 .Britain. — Alhnuy Ooutttri/ Ocittltuitin. Feb--im. 



The Fruit Evaporator. 



Within ii few years the evaporation of fruit by im- 

 proved processes, under the stimulus of the current 

 high prices for the product, has received much ut- 



'teution. American evaporated fruits have gained a 

 great reputation in Europe, and now constitute an 

 Important item iu eommerce. The demand, market 



. anil i>riee within the last year luis added new interest 

 and importance to the business. 



Perhaps the most siirniticant fuel in this eonncc- 

 tiou is, that simpler and cheaper, yet philosophical 



•evaporators have been constructed, and are now 

 going into use as an auxiliary to the farmer ancl 



• orchardist. Fruit growers should closely investigate | 

 and turn to account upo»i their own premises much, 

 if not all, of the fruit that usually goes to waste or 

 is sold at unremuncrative prices. Tlie fact that 

 raisins are sold here for 10 cents per pound, after a 

 carriage of thousands of miles, and evaporated 

 pared "iwaehcs is worth 2.5 lo oil cents per pound, 

 suggests at least investigation. 



Seeds and Plants. 



Wc would call the atlention of those of our 

 readers who coutcm))late pureliasiug seeds or plants 

 during the coming season, to tlie advertisement of 

 Peter Henderson A Co., New York, now appearing 

 in our eolumus. Peter ITcnderson, the senior niein- 

 bei- of the firm, is known far and wide as a horti- 

 cultural writer and authorily. His books, "Gar- 

 dening for Prolit," "Practical Floriculture," and 

 "Gardening lor Pleasure." are now iu the hands 

 of thousands. The green-house establishment of 

 this firm covers three acres in green-houses and 

 employs ui'wards of lil'ty hands. Slillions of plants 

 are shipped by mail or express aimnally to every 

 State and Territory. Tlieir seed waichonse is the 

 most extensive in the city of New Y'ork, and every 

 order received is certain to be filled with goods of 

 the best quality, and as they are producers as 

 ■well as dealers, "everything for the garden" will 

 be sold at low rates. Feh-.'!iu
