/THORLEY'S FOOD FOR CATTLE.
It is only a short time since this singularly efficacious
Plicle of animal diet first made its appearance ; and already
Its celebrity is world-wide. It has been a subject of wonder,
and has puzzled many a brain to explain how this has been
broutrht about. Yet when we are acquainted with a few facts
"mcerning the food,-our wonder will cease. A few days since,
gentleman wrote, stating that he had a horse which was a
tLperfeet bag of bones." He tried all kinds of things to get
11.. e animal into condition, but in vain. He then bought some
pi Thorley's food; and he says the effect was wonderful. The
norse rapidly grew fat, and in the course of a few weeks had
kained no less than 12 stones. Again we find at the late ag,rl-
- shows at Birmingham, Cardiff, &c., the animals which
aeied off the highest prizes had been partly fed with Thor-
n'ajnod for cattle. Such facts speak for themselves, and we
'°reed to the conclusion that its celebrity arises solely
';'j lin its own intrinsic merits, and the great demand for it can
~,li.?ceed alone from the good opinion and testimony of those
~_„? have one it. All parties interested in horses and cattle
witi do well to apply to 77, Nerrgate-street, London,
