GOOD NEWS FOR FARMERS.—It is with pleasure we note the introduction into Hun tingdon County of an article of food for horses aad cattle, which, while new to us, has been used as an excepted article of animal diet in other parts of the Globe for ten years back, and bears a high character in our neighboring counties. This article known as Gordon's Food is represented as a highly nourishing diet used in conjunction with other feed, and which, if used as directed, will impart a better and more healthy condition to a horse than under the usual style of feeding, while to cows it causes not only an increased quantity but also a rich er quality of the lacteal fluid. For our own part we believe science can do much to assist our farmers and hersemen in lessening the cost of feeding and keeping their dumb ani mals in a healthy state, and whenever we hear she is doing her best to improve those things which are necessary to life we gladly do all in our power to urge her on. From the number and respectability of those who attest the merits of this article we believe there must be merit in what it claims and would advise those of our readers who are in terested in the matter to apply to Messrs. Henry & Co., our well-known Commission house, for a copy of a very clearly written pamphlet we have now before us. DON'T DO IT !

FAIRBANKS' SCALES.—We leirn tint nutwithstaneing the general stagnation in bus iness during the year that is now closing, no year has witnessed such a demand for Fair banks' Scales. The fact is that they are an article of manufacture to which national im - portance attaches. Our business men all over the country have long since come to regard these scales as indispensable, and the endorse ment of the United States Government in the award of the contract for supplying thousands of post offices throughout the country with scales of the Fairbanks manufacture gives a fresh emphasis to the character of the firm and the quality oftheir work. The Fairbanks standard is not only universally recognized here, but also throughout the world, and no special American manufacture holds a higher rank than the Fairbanks' Scale:. With im proved machinery of their own invention and ample facilities for keeping pace with the in creasing demand, an abundance of skilled la bor and thorough management, the Messrs. Fairbanks enter upon the year 1876 with the prospect of a business that shall completely eclipse that of any preceding year in the his tory of the firm.
