HOMING ANTWERPS. 
My stock of this remarkable pigeon is bred from birds imported by 
Mr. O. 8, Hubbell, and selected for him in Belgium from the most success- 
ful cotes by Mr. Baily, of London, regardless of expense. Some single 
specimens of winning birds, costing in Belgium $60 in gold, all of which 
had accomplished their 600 miles of homeward flight. These are not the 
short-beaked birds of the English show pen, but are the real Homing 
Antwerps of the continent, from whence (via London) they were im- 
ported. I can furnish them in two colorings, either Blue or Silver Dun. 
Price from $10 to $15 per pair. JOS. M. WADE, Philadelphia, Pa.
