ThoFarmer's Advo , te, of London, Ont., and Winnipeg, M n., has signalized tho great Canadian orse Show 011896 by isuing a companio piece to its much admired draught ho se premium group, "Canada's Pride," i ued some years ago. The production s fittingly named "Canacla'sGiory," a the portrays are artis- tically arranged gro p of the finest indi- viduals of the no lest race of animals extant. The design and the perspective of -the picture, and t e life -likeness of the superb light horses ortrayed are worthy of the very highe commendation. We recommend it as a iece of high-class art in animal portrai are, suitable alike for the adornment of he walls of the dining room, sitting room, r drawing room. One cannot study a pict re of this sort without being more strong] impressed than before with the noblene of the equine race, while the thought t at the garoline motor will displace the ho so becom=- the climax of absurdities. —M.
