He breeds for size, constitution, length and quality of staple, and is successful. Card on page 460.

PUBLISHER'S NOTES.


J. G. BARKER, of Leicester, commenced his flock of Merinos in 1868. His sheep represent some of the best blood in the county. His valuable stock ram " Rollin" is represented on page 344. Mr. Barker is well known also as a breeder of thoroughbred Chester White hogs.


O. H. & W. O. BASCOM, of Orwell, issue a new cut of their valuable stock ram Romeo No. 101, on page 478. Their present flock of pure Atwoods was established as such more than twenty years ago. They are fine breeders and their sheep rank among the best.


JOSEPH BATTELL, of Middlebury, a gentleman of large means, is devoting much of his time and energies to the improvement of several farms,-two in Middlebury, another in Ripton and a third in Weybridge, -collectively known as " Bread Loaf Stock Farms. " In the Middlebury farms there are three hundred acres, well furnished, containing among other improvements a large amount of barn room with twenty-five box stalls for horses. In Weybridge he has two hundred acres, upon which he has erected a magnificent barn, costing $10,000.00, and which will accommodate about twenty horses and as many cattle. His Ripton farm consists of six hundred acres, furnished with a barn composed of two wings each 100x60 feet. Here also heer ected, several years ago, Bread Loaf Inn. w' ere Bread Loaf postoffice is kept, and where a large number of guests congregate each summer, seeking health and recreation in the mountain air and scenery of this charming locality, and are handsomely entertained. The hotel will accommodate one hundred guests. Mr. Battell has also, during the past season, constructed a telegraph line of several miles in length, connecting all his farms, and having public offices in Middlebury, East Middlebury, Ripton, and at Bread Loaf Inn. Mr. Battell's stock consists of twenty brood mares, with the Morgan stallions, "Motion" and " Thought." The mares have been carefully selected for speed and size, with Morgan's Hambletonian and running blood, the Morgan predominating. The stallions are both from the celebrated Morgan stallion, " David Lambert," already the sire of twenty-three horses with records under 30. The dam of " Motion " was a very fast Morrell Morgan mare, while the dam of "Thought " was of Hambletonian breed. The following is a description and pedigree of his stallions : " Motion," chestnut, small star in forehead, right hind ankle white, fifteen hands, record 2.29, foaled October, 1873, bred at the Cream Hill Stock Farm, Shoreham, by Leander Comee, of Fitchburgh, Mass., got by " Daniel Lambert," by "Ethan Allen," by " Vermont Black Hawk," by 'Sherman Morgan," by Justin Morgan. Dam a very fast Morgan mare formerly owned by Charles B. Wellington, of Albion, Maine. "Thought," mahogany bay, star and white nose, two white ankles behind, 15.2 hands high, bred by A. J. Stowe, of Weybridge, got by "Daniel Lambert," first dam by Rysdyks' Hambletonian," second dam by Seeley's " American Star." His herd of thirty Jersey cattle was bred from imported stock owned by Daniel Webster, on his farm at Marshfield, crossed with stock from the herd of J. Gregory Wellington, of Middlebury, and with the bull "Sir John," bred by Romeo Stevens, Solcum Lodge, St. Lamberts, Canada. In all his enterprises, Mr. Battell gives employment to a large number of men, and no doubt derives much pleasure through his efforts to improve the agricultural interests of Addison County. See illustrations facing page 248".


D. H. BENNETT, postmaster and general merchant at Bridport, is one of the most enterprising business men of that favored town. As a merchant and citizen he has the confidence and esteem of all who know him. Card on page 266.

CALICE BESSETTE, of Orwell, proprietor of the most extensive carriage manufactory and repository in the county, prints an interesting card illus- trated by a cut of a portion of his premises, on page 400. Mr. Bessette en- ploys a large force of experienced carriage builders, blacksmiths, painters, trimniers, etc., and by using the best materials of all kinds, he is enabled to turn out carriages, road wagons, or sleighs of all kinds that would do honor to any manufacturer. He invites a visit from all who desire first-class work.


MERRILL BINGHAM, of Cornwall, one of the "veterans" in the business, has been engaged in the breeding of Spanish Merino sheep for nearly half a cen- tury, and he still takes pride in showng his fine flock, representatives of which are scattered throughout the country. See his card on page 286.

His illustrated card is on page 312.


A. V. BROWN, of the central photograph gallery, at Middlebury, has had long experience and is fully up to the times in improved processes. He is prepared to take out-door work if desired. Don't fail to read his card on page 328.


H. C. BROWN, of Orwell (p. o. address Whiting), presents a picture of Stiles' Ram No. 2, on page 448. Mr. Brown founded his flock more than twenty years ago. He is a careful breeder, and from his flocks have gone into other States many valuable sheep. Buyers will do well to examine his stock.


H. C. BURWELL, of Bridport, publishes an illustration of his celebrated stock ram Bismarck, together with a letter to the publisher, on page 424. The history of this flock is there so well set forth that it is unnecessary to say more here than to remind the reader that, bred from first selections of noted flocks, to combine large size, symmetry of form, strong constitution, with great weight of fleece, must make his flock a favorite one from which to select by men willing to pay a fair price.

able to any farm wagon, will, it seems to us, attract the attention of every provident and enterprising farmer.

R. A. Foor & So, of Cornwall, have the State agency for the Casaday Sulky Plow, one of those sensible implements which attract on first sight, and people wonder why it was not invented sooner. Plowing in the old way is a slow and tiresome undertaking, while with this plow the operator enjoys a pleasant ride, and the plow being without a landside there is less friction than by the use of walking plows, and the weight in turning the furrow rests en- tirely upon the wheels. A very fair illustration of this plow is given on page 282. Its sale during the past year has been large. This firm is also em- ployed in breeding Merino sheep of pure blood and fine form.

This fact becoming known is bringing him a large list of patrons, to all of whom he gives entire satisfaction. Read his advertisement on page 348.


F. K. HAVEN, dealer in fine clothing, groceries, crockery, wall paper etc., at Vergennes, publishes bottom line notices, on various directory pages.

PUBLISHER'S NOTES.


FRANKLIN HOOKER, of Cornwall, commenced his present flock of Merinos in January, 1864, by purchase of 13 Atwood ewes, of David Hooker, of Middle- bury, which were bred from the flocks of E. Hammond, N. A. Saxton and A. A. Farnsworth. He afterwards bought of S. W. Remele five ewes, and in 1875, four old Hammond ewes from E. D. Hinds, of Brandon.
