The Live Stock Journal 



And FANCIER'S GAZETTE. 



A BREEDER'S, EXHIBITOR'S, AND 



COUNTRY GENTLEMAN'S CHRONICLE, 



Has long been the recognised Organ of all Live Stock Interests. It contains the 

 Fullest and most Critical Reports of THE SHOWS and important STOCK SALES, 

 and LEADING ARTICLES by the HIGHEST AUTHORITIES upon all subjects 

 bearing directly and indirectly upon the pursuits of the Country Gentleman, 

 Agriculturist, and Fancier. The Journal embraces the following Departments : — 



HERD AND FARM. — Under this heading The Live Stock Journal discusses con- 

 stantly the breeds and practical management of Cattle, Sheep, and Pigs. Their treat- 

 ment, profit, and loss, under different systems, comparative value, &c. , are dealt with 

 by the most competent writers ; as is the Rotation of Crops, and economy of the 

 Farm in connection with these topics, thereby making the Journal as useful to the 

 General Farmer as to the Live Stock Breeder. Questions on the diseases of Horses 

 and Cattle are answered weekly by the highest Veterinary Authorities of the day. 



FLOOD AND FIELD. — In this Department of the Journal information on Hunt- 

 ing, Shooting, Coursing, Fishing, Field Sports, and subjects of interest to the Sports- 

 man and Country Gentleman, is inserted. 



STUD AND STABLE.— All matters relating to the Stud and Stable receive the 

 most careful attention in The Live Stock Journal. Feeding, management, breeding, 

 and breaking, of Horses and Mules, are subjects on which important papers constantly 

 appear, written by practical men. 



NATURAL HISTORY has a special Department, and receives a full share of 

 attention in these columns— interesting notes and items appearing from time to time by 

 well-known naturalists. 



SHOWS. — Prize Lists and Reports of all Shows are regularly given ; and the 

 critiques of The Live Stock Jour7ial are now the recognised authority in exhibition 

 matters, no pains or expense being spared to obtain the most competent judgment 

 available in their preparation. 



THE KENNEL. — Contributions by the most successful Breeders and Fxhibitors of Dogs 

 regularly appear in The Live Stock Journal, on the various breeds of Dogs. The Kennel 

 Registry affords a convenient means for the registration of the birth of pups, and forms for this 

 purpose are supplied free of charge on application to the office of the Journal. 



POULTRY AND PIGEONS.— The practical and high-class contributions which have 

 appeared in The Live Stock Journal on Poultry and Pigeons have made this paper almost 

 the sole authority among all breeders and exhibitors desirous of obtaining thoroughly trustworthy 

 and reliable information on Poultry and Pigeon Breeding and Management. 



AVIARY AND RABBITS.— Canaries, other Cage-Birds, and Rabbits, are the sub- 

 jects of constant articles and correspondence in the Journal, by practical and experienced
