 the advertised prices. 



John "Warner & Sons having been practical Horticulturists 

 for many years, know exactly the requirements of both Amateurs 

 and Gardeners. A gardener with a properly constructed pump 

 will get through as much work in five minutes as he could with 

 any Syringe in a quarter of an hour, and with half the labour to 

 himself. Syringes are economical for small houses. 



No establishment offers such a variety of effective machines for 

 hydraulic purposes, whether to supply Gardens, Hothouses, 

 Cottages, Farms, Mansions, or Boards of Health, with every re- 

 quisite connected with the conveyance and distribution of liquids.

 Iron. Its valne has been proved by the tost of time. It should 

 be well stirred up before using and applied cold. This Tarnish

We have lying before us the prize lists of two 

 annual agricultural shows — one to be held in Paris be- 

 tween May 23 and June 7, 1856, and the other be- 

 tween May 22 and June 6, 1857. It may be well for 

 English breeders to bear in mind the extremely 

 liberal rewards offered by the French government on 

 these occasions. As instances we select the short-horn 

 class among cattle, in which eight prizes amount- 

 ing to nearly 400/. are offered, the highest bein 

 40/. for the best old and yearling bulls ; an 

 the South-down class among sheep, in which prizes 

 amounting to nearly 200£ will be awarded ; 

 the highest being 24/. The interest excited 

 among both British and French agriculturists by the 

 show of this year will, we think, ensure greater 

 and more general patronage of this annual meeting 

 by English breeders than has hitherto been accorded 

 to it. The sum of 5000/. and upwards is awarded 

 to breeding stock alone on this occasion, besides a 

 considerable sum for machines. An application 

 addressed to the Minister of Agriculture and of 

 Public Works will, no doubt, procure a printed 

 statement in detail of the particular distribution of 

 this large sum. 



On the 9th of May a paper by Mr. Horsfall, of 

 Burley Hall, Otley, in which he described the 

 results of his dairy management, was read before 

 the Royal Agricultural Society of England. He had 

 been requested, it appears, by the Council of the 

 Society to supply information regarding his treat- 

 ment of cows for dairy purposes, and the 

 information which he gave was justly deemed 

 worthy of a vote of thanks. The remarkable fact 

 which his experience had presented was the extreme 

 richness and density of the cream which under 

 his mode of feeding was obtained, and he says that 

 having satisfied himself that this peculiar richness 



was due only to the treatment of his cows, it 

 appeared to him that these results of his dairy 

 practice afforded matter of interest for the investi- 

 gation of those who cultivate science — the physiolo- 



and that he ought not to keep 



from 



gist and the chemist
