farms and farming-dairy stock and
stock feeding-milk, its management
and manufacture into butter and cheese
history and mode of organization of
butter and cheese factories, dairy uten-
sils, contained in 546 large octave pages,

NJ, editor of the dairy. department of
Moore's Rural Neac Yorker and lecturer
at the Maine State Agricultural and
Cornell University. 1t is printed in a
neat and handsome volume fully and
| beautifully illustrated at the Rural Men
Yorker office
This volume will be hailed everywhere,
especially among the dairymen of Yer
mont, with pleaaure and read with pro-
fit by thousands engaged and interested
in dairy husbandry, for it will sbe found
to be the most complete and exhaustive
trestiae ever published upon the subject
1t treats in a practical and ineligible
manner, upon every branch of dairy
business, while its illustrations-inc includ-
ing portraits of dairy animals, plans
and elevations of butter and cheese fac
tories and other dairy buildings, and en-
cravings of numerous dairy utensils, etc.
render the work additionally attrac-
tive and valuable. Mr.. Wizards long
experience as practical dairyman in
Herkimer county, \. Y, (the most cele-
brated dairy region in America and his
travels in search of information on the
subject throughout this country and
Europe render him by far the best au-
thOrity eXtant on this subject As no
work OF Importance Of this kind has
been published in this country for many
years this volume must at once become
the standard work In America. The
author Is already popular as a writer
and lecturer-but this work, the result
of years of labor, study and research,
will add to his already just fame that of
apublio LenefactOr, and supply a most
needed contribution. The writer has
made this branch of industry a specially
for years, and has presented practical
and not a theoretical treatise
The men engaged in dairy farming in
this country are practical and substan-
tial men, who seek for information and
in this volume they find matter adapted
to their every day use. We have no
hesitation in saying that Willard's Prac~
teal Dairy Husbandry should be in the
hands Of every dairyman and farmer in
Vermont.
