Sinoe that time we have made many im ortanee improvements m their manufacture —improvements not of the nature of veget compounds which may be added.to any ood of a trifling cost, but of the nature to produce good hard flesh and muscle, ingre dients which no other Biscuit or Dog Food possesses, and for which we have received numerous medals and high recommendations, amongst which we may mention that of Pro fessor Dj Zurn, who after many careful analysis and experiments pronounced these biscuits to be of the gree.test excellence, and to ntain double the quantity of nourish ment that is to be found m the flesh, thus farming the best and most successful food for dogs that is possible to produce. It is important to notice that every biscuit is stamped—"Buffalo Meat, Trade Mark," the quality of which we guarantee. Twenty shillings per c wt, carriage paidß SOLE MANUFACTURERS, W. G.

In a well ordered shoeing forge the following standard rules will always be observed: — 1. A shoe should never be removed withou J first cutting off the clinches, because by simply turning back the clinch m drawing the nail a piece of the clinch is often left m the foot, endangering the horse when the new shoe comes to be driven on. | 2 The frog and bars require no cutting m a regu arly attended foot. And m a healthy ] foot where there are no symptoms of J navicular disorder, the sole should not be cut. . 3. The shoe should have a level bearing upon the wall of the foot, aud should not be sprung at the heel, as is too common, thereby acting as a fearful lever upon the tendons 4. The nails should be driven level and uni form, and only on the toe side of the inside quarter, the toot being thinner upon the inside and the greater weight of the body being siwtabed there. There is no comparison points of quality between the hand-made and the machine made shoe. The machine-made shoe is of & CAarscr material, softer, and is imported andii; should be insisted upon that they be not used m the Pfllpny
