apology for the following brief description
Riverside Farm was started as breeding estab-
lshment in 1874 and has, therefore, now been in
operation ten years. During this time large num-
Der of Berkshire Swine and Cotswod Sheep have
ment of this branch of stock bred at the farm The
Berkshire herd has long been famous one of the
best in the country and formerly of the largest.
The number of BerkShires and CotsWods have been
considerably reduced, but the quality is now claim
ed to be better than before. The prizes by
both the Berkshires and Cotswods have been some
what phenomenal, they having been honored at the
New England aud Maine fairs repeatedly. Three
bucks OF the first prize pen of Cotswolds at the U.
S. Centennial were used with the Riverside Farm
flock. All the Riverside Cotswolds registered in
the United States Cotswolds Register and the Berk-
shires in the Register of the National Berkshire AS

The Jerseys have long been leading feature of
the farm and large number of the COWS have been
recently bred to the famous bull Romeo de Bonair,
son of Stoke POgie 3d. sire of Mary Anne of St. Lam
ounces of butter in single week, surprising all
former exploits in this direction. Euclid the son
Of imported Lawrence, was for long time at the
head of the herd but more recently it has been led
by the Alphea bull Paugus, who has in his pedigree
five cows running from IA to 20 pounds of butter
per week. These are the only kinds of stock kept
at the farm except the famous Bronze Turkeys,
Light Brahmas and Collie Dogs. The Bronze Iur-
keys have been sent in all directions including four
expectations to England. The Collie Dogs are fam
Gus everywhere, more than 200 of these animals
having been bred at the farm within the last five or
six years. They have been sent to nearly every
State in the Union, to be used for practical pur-
poses and for family pets. They have been several
times exhibited at the fairs herding sheep and
cattle, and at the New England fair of 1888 the
sweepstakes was awarded to the leader of this
kennel,

The house of d. Appleton Co. are so well
known to the whole world, that any words from ms
to the commanding position they hold in publishing

not be out of place to devote few remarks to the
magnitude and Importance of that great triumnh
of purely American brain and enterprise which
has been given 10 the country by the Messrs An
pleton when they published their American Cyclo-
pedia."
Among the few works of this description which
claim 10 Dc complete cyclopedias there can be little
room lett Tor doubt that Appleton's is the best
aoapted for all purposes. The firm producing this
