HQRSFORD'S SELF-RAISING IsREAD 
PREPARATION 
Makes the most wholesome and "best of bread, biscuit, 
cakes, &c. Unlike some other yeast, it contains no POISON 
to create DYSPEPSIA, and the bread may therefore be 
eaten hot without detriment. Resolving itsell into Phos- 
phate of Lime and soda, it prevents KICKETS, CHOLEKA, 
and decay of TEETH, and promotes the growth oi Muscle 
and Bone. In "raining" the dough it does not, like other 
yeast, decompose the flour, but adds nutriment to the bread, 
and otherwise improves it in quality aud quantity. Each 
package contains full directions for use. Send for pam- 
phlet, supplied gratis! Ask your Grocer for " Horsford's

"MAPLE SHADE FLOCK" 
THOROUGH-BRED COTSWOLD SHEEP. 
This justly-celebrated flock was selected from the flocks 
of the most noted breeders in England, by John D. Wing, 
Esq., of Washington Hollow, *T. Y.,<wh« gave personal at- 
tention to its collection, with reference to the best wool- 
producing and mutton qualities. It is pronounced hy com- 
petent judges to he the finest flock in America; and the 
present leader, " Champion of England" and some of the 
ewes, are believed to equal the best in any country. 
The wool is long, fine, and lustrous, yielding from S to 20 
pounds per head. They are full and square-bodied, very 
strong in the loins, and weigh from 200 to 300 pounds at ma- 
turity—sometimes exceeding even this weight. They are - 
hardy and vigorous, and for breeding pure or crossing with 
other breeds, are believed to promise more profit than any 
other sheep. The wool is in good demand at remunerative 
prices, and the thorough-bred rams crossed with any other 
sheep produce a good combing wool, aud lambs of such 
size as bring a large price early in the season in market. 
Every sheep at present in the " Maple Shade Flock " was 
either imported or bred direct from imported sire and dam, 
and has a perfect pedigree. 
This flock took the first prizes in the long wool classes at. 
the New York State and Dutchess Co. Fairs, inlSG? andlS69. 
Having purchased of Mr. Wing his Entire Floclc, we 
offer for sale Choice Ewes, Rams and L.amlj{.

XOTICES 1ST THE. PRESS. 
This book is .1 valuable manual for everybody -who 
feeds chickens or sells eggs. It suits at once the plain 
poulterer who must make the business pay, and the chick- 
en fancier whose taste is for gay plumage, and strange, 
bright birds. The most valuable portion is the first sec- 
tion, extending through fifty-five pages. These were writ- 
ten with the intention of producing a manual so plain, 
minute, and practical, that any oic could, by using it as a 
guide, with no previous experience with poultry, become 
at once successful in' producing eggs, young chickens, an~d 
fat fowls for market. The author has. not missed his aim. 
The middle parts of Mr. Wright's Manual are taken up 
wilh minute directions for making show fowls for Fairs, 
a nice discussion of the good and bad points of the dif- 
ferent breeds, and a brief sketch of such fancy stock as 
peafowl, pheasants, and water-fowl. Then follows a 
section on artificial hatching,' and another, worth special 
attention, on large poultry yards A study of Mr. 
Wright's book will convince any farmer's wife that all 
she needs is to give a half hour each day, of intelligent 
and sagacious attention to her poultry, in order to obtain 
from them, not tape, and knitting needles, and buttons, 
and nutmegs merely, but the family supplies of sugar, 
shoes, and cloth. Wew York Tribune. 
It is the most complete and valuable work on the mat- 
ters of which it treats yet published. It will be found a 
plain and sufficient guide to any one in any circumstances 
likely to occur, and is illustrated with elegant engravings 
of many breeds of fowls. Farmers' Cabinet 
This is a reprint, with numerous wood engravings, of 
an English book, the object of which is to convey in 
plain language a great deal of practical information about 
the breeding and management of poultry, whether for 
domestic use, the markets, or exhibition The book is 
eminently practical, and we recommend it to farmers and 
others interested in breeding and selling poultry. 
Philadelphia Press. 
It is a handsome volume, brought out in the best style, 
aud enriched with nearly fifty illustrations. It is evidently 
the fruit of a thorough, practical experience and knowl- 
edge of fowls, and will be found a plain and sufficient 
guide in all the practical details of poultry management 
as a profitable business. United Presbyterian. 
The subject is treated fully and ably by an experienced 
hand, and the volume will doubtless find a large sale 
among the growing class of poultry fanciers. It is em- 
bellished with numerous illustrative engravings.

quence is a volume of more than ordinary thoroughness ' 
and exhanstiveness. Rochester Democrat.
