NEW AMERICAN FARM BOOK. 
Originally by Hit-Hard L, Allen. Revised and greatly 
enlarged by Lewis F. Allen. Price $2.50. 
Allen's American Farm Book has been one of the standard 
farmers'hand-books for twenty years; it is still a valuable 
book,but. not up to the times; and as its author, Mr.Ii.L. Allen, 
could not give time to its revision, tills was undertaken by 
his brother. Hon. Lewis F. Allen, the distinguished farmer 
of Erie countv. editor of the American Shorthorn Herd- 
Book. The work is greatly enlarged, and full of suggestions 
from the rich experience of its editor and reviser, and is 
called the New American Farm Book.

Breeding. Rearing, Management, and Improvement. With 
numerous Illustrations. By Joseph Harris. Price, $1.50. 
This is the only American treatise upon the breeding, 
rearing, and management of swine, and is by one thorough¬ 
ly familiar with the whole subject. The points of the various 
English and American breeds are thoroughly discussed, and 
tlie great advantage of using thorough-bred males clearly 
shown. The work is equally valuable to the farmer who 
keeps but few pigs, and to the breeder on an extensive scale.

PEACH CULTURE^ 
Illustrated. By J:imcs Alexander Fulton. Price, $1.50. 
Among tlie fruits, the Peach , if not the most, is one of the 
most important of all. It is so easily raised, comes into 
bearing so soon, and is so delicious, as well as beautiful, it 
is impossible that it should not be a favorite. Living in the 
very center of the peach-growing district; sharing the com¬ 
mon interest felt in the subject; deeply impressed with its 
importance to the individual planters themselves, and also 
to the community at large; and believing that alasting bene¬ 
fit could be doiie to both, the author lias been induced to 
prepare this work on peach culture. 
CRANBERRY CULTURE. 
Illustrated. By Joseph J. White. Price, $1.25. 
Tlie author of this work has aimed to embody, in a plain 
and concise manner, all the useful and practical facts which 
study and experience have yielded to the inquiring cran¬ 
berry grower of the present time. The business has in¬ 
creased enormously within the last ten years, and knowledge 
and experience have kept pace with that increase. 
The endeavor lias been to make tills work as comprehen¬ 
sive as possible; and it is believed that it will prove an ef¬ 
ficient. guide to all who may have cause to consult its pages.
