STAMP EDc MEAT FIBRIlSrE DOG- OAKES. From the reputation these Meat Fibrine Cakes have now gained, they require scarcely any explanation to recommend them to the use of every one who keeps a dog; suffice it to say they are free from salt, and contain dates the exclusive use of which, in combination with meat and meal, to compose a biscuit is secured to us by Letters Patent, and without which no biscuit so composed can possibly be a successful food for dogs. 22s. per cwt., carriage paid; larger quantities 20s. per cwt., carriage paid. From hundreds of unsolicited Testimonials we select the undermentioned: London, 15th May, 1873. Having used Spratt's Patent Biscuits in large quantities for some years, feed- ing my prize and other dogs principally upon them, I have pleasure in stating that I consider them the best food for dogs. I must add that my kennels have been singularly free from disease, particularly considering the large number of dogs I have had there. J. H. MURCHISON. Eatington Park, Stratford-oii-Avon, April, 1873. I have used a considerable number of Spratt's Patent Dog Cakes, and [ can speak very favourably of them. I believe they have been much improved of late, and that if they are used witli proper care, they make an excellent food for dogs of all sorts. S. E. Shirley, M.P.' Rhiwlas Bald, 21st June, 1873. Sir,—I have now tried your Dog Cakes for some six months or so in my kennels, and am happy to be able to give a conscientious testimonial in their favour. I have also found them valuable for feeding horses on a long journey when strength and stamina are im- portant objects. It was the opinion of my brother judges and myself that dogs never appeared at the close of a week's confinement in better health and condition than the specimens exhibited at the Crystal Palace Show, and I understand that your Cakes were exclusively used by the manager. R. J. Lloyd Price. SPRATT'S PATENT POULTRY AND GAME MEAL Is the greatest Egg-producing food and fattener of Ducks and Poultry known; un- equalled for raising young Pheasants, Chicks, and Ducklings; and also of great value in feeding during the voyage small birds exported for acclimatisation. 22s. per cwt., carriage paid. 5 cwt. and over, 20s. per cwt., carriage paid. From hundreds of unsolicited Testimonials we select the undermentioned. Bay View Villa, Swansea, 25th March, 1873. Gentlemen,—Will you be good enough to send me another 10 cwt. of Poultry Meal, and also 2 cwt. of Crissel, as I find it suits my fowls so admirably ? I have not lost a chick as yet, and as I have several broods now hatching, I hope you will be able to forward it at once, as I do not wish to feed them on any other food, my others having done so well Yours faithfully, H. Feast. Morris Brook, near Warrington, 24th March, 1873. Gentlemen,—The Poultry Meal you sent me a short time ago exceeds all expectations; it is undoubtedly the grandest of all foods. I have during the last six years bred up- wards of two thousand chickens, and find, since I commenced using your Meal, the percentage of loss almost nil—In fact I have not lost a chicken this year. My present stock appears unusually heathy and vigorous; and, without flattery, I attribute my un- precedented success solely to the use of it. The chickens eat it with avidity, never seem tired of it, and appear to fledge more rapidly. I can stmrigly recommend it to breeders of valuable stock. Have the goodness to send me anoiher 5 cwt.; also a cwt. of the Granulated Prairie Meat Crissel.—I am. Gentlemen, faithfully yours, Chas. Latland. GRANULATED PRAIRIE MEAT CRISSEL, The last novelty, and greatest boon to Pheasant raisers or Poultry keepers; takes the place of insect life. Handful a day every dozen Pheasants or Hens. 28s. per cwt.
