verdict Of the Agricultural press in saying that 1t il
among the most complete and reliable contributions
to scientific and practical agriculture. The arrange
meat Of the work Is convenient for reference, the H.
luSatiOns beautiful the language plain, clear, intel
ligible and truthful. The work comprisis two royal
svo WIS of 1900 pages, including COO wood cuts and
Ii steel engravings-OhiO CuLfiUGtor.
We have received this highly interesting and useful
but above ALL practical work. We know Of no Other
agricultural work ever published in this country which
might compare with the one just named in practical
usefulness and intrinsic merit in genenl-Pu6aie

THE FARMERS GuIDE-Ths work Is a rich mine o
agricultural knowledge, presented in simple and ia
mlar STYLE giving coPous details OF the best practice
on English FARMS and adapted TO general use in thi,
country by the udicious notes Of the American editor
The intelligent farmer will find II very attractive read
ing. In the comparison between English and Ameri
can husbandry for which il furnishes ample materials
he may obtain many valuable hints for increasing the
product Of his own acres. The mental stimulus gver
by the perlsa Of such writing is quite important Al
their more immediate purposes and even II they
should not refund the expense Of their purchase In
dollars and cents at the end Of the year they will mon
than make the outlay good in the intellectual benefits
which they impart-Neio York Tribune.
