Their History, Breeding, and Management 
By LEWIS F. ALLEIV. 
ILLUSTRATED. PRICE, POST-PAtD. $2.50. 
Tliis book will he considered indispensable by every 
breeder of live-stock. The large experience of the author 
in improving the character of American herds adds to the 
weight of his observations, and has enabled him to produce 
a wo[lc which will at once make pood its claims as a stand- 
ard authority on the subject. An excellent feature of the 
volume is its orderly, metltodical arrantrement, condensing 
a great variety of information, into a comparatively small 
compass, and enabling the reader to find the point on which 
he is seeking light, without wasting his time In turning over 
the leaves.

By LEWIS F. AliLEN, 
PRICE, POST-PAID, $2.S0. 
Allen's American Farm Book has been one of the standard 
farmers' hand-books fur twenty years; it is still a valuable 
book.liut not up to the times; aha as its author, Mr. i;. L.Allen, 
could not give time lo its revision, this was undertaken by 
his brotlier, Hon. Lewis F. Allen, the distinguislied farmer 
of Erie countv, editor of the American Stiorthorii Herd- 
Book. The work is greatly enlarged, and full of suggestions 
from the rich experience of its editor .and reviser, aud is 
called the JV'eto American Farm Book.

PRICE, POST-PAID, $3.00. 
In this work Professor Caldwell has brought together the 
processes of analysis whicli apply especially to soils, fertil- 
izers, animals iind plantrs, and tlieir products. He has tested 
tlie metliods of the best foreign autliorities, and presented 
tliem in a compact liand-book. Such a work lias long beeiy 
needed bv all who teach agricultural cheinistry, and by 
analytical' chemists generallv. i'rofessor Caldwell modestly 
ciills'himself the editor, hut his book shows that he has not 
contented himself with editing the works of others, but has 
given much of his own experience.
