Tliis is the only American treatise upon the breeding, 
rearing, and management of swine, and is by one thorough¬ 
ly familiar with t lie whole subject. The points of the various 
English and American breeds are thoroughly discussed, and 
the 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 ail extensive scale.

A Trochar for Cattle-Men, 
In June of 1872 wc gave illustrations of a Tro¬ 
char and Cannula to be used in ringing 
a bull, and on page 13 (January) and 
page 07 (March) of this Journal for 1873 
we described the use of this apparatus 
in relieving hoven in cattle. These ar¬ 
ticles have brought out a large demand for 
Trochars, and failing to find just the right 
kind among the makers of surgical imple¬ 
ments, we have induced an establishment 
to undertake their manufacture. Wc give 
herewith a small engraving of the Trochar. 
These articles are now in the trade, and 
maybe had of most dealers in agricultural 
implements. Those who can not get. them 
from dealers can receive them from this office, prepaid, 
for $1.00.

II MY GARDEN. 
By 1. P. ROE, 
Author of “ Barriers Burned Aieayetc. 
NOTICES BY THE PRESS. 
Tlie author takes us to his garden on the rocky hill-sides in 
tlie vicinity of West Point and show's us how out of it, after 
four years’ experience, he evoked a profit of $1,000, and this 
while carrying on pastoral and literary labors.It 
is very rare that so much literary taste and skill are mated 
to so much agricultural experience and practical good sense. 
—Harper's Magazine. 
This hook is as poetical as it is practical. Still lie is no 
dreamer. lie goes into every essential detail with as much 
minuteness and precision as if lie were writing a manual for 
tlie practical farmer. Indeed few works professedly de¬ 
voted to agriculture give more sound and valuable informa¬ 
tion oil tlie secret of winning golden harvests from tlie soil 
than this brief idyllic sketch.— JX. Y. Tribune.

experience for a term of years.
