PIANO-FORTE TUNING.
At the suggestion of many of his Customers, W. R. takes this
mode of intimating, and submitting for approval, a Scale of
Charges for Tuning Piano-fortes by the Year.
That Piano-fortes be Tuned by a competent Berson. at regular
intervals, is of importance even in the case of an indifferent in-
strument, but it is indispensably requisite where the preservation,
or otherwise, of a really good one is involved.
The frequently-expressed satisfaction of those Ladies who have
done W. R. the honour to try this system, is the best recommen-
dation in its favour.

NEWSPAPER FOR THE FARMING AND GARDENING INTEREST.
Saturday, Jan. 5, will be published, price Fivepence, or Sixpence stamped, each volume complete in itself,
TWENTY-FOUR, OCCASIONALLY THIRTY-TWO FOLIO PAGES,
THE FIRST NUMBER FOR 1856 OF
THE GARDENERS' CHRONICLE AND AGRICULTURAL GAZETTE;
A WEEKLY RECORD OF RURAL ECONOMY AND GENERAL NEWS.
THE HORTICULTURAL PART EDITED BY PROFESSOR LINDLEY.
The FARMING PART (under the Editorship of a Practical Farmer) treats of—
The Practice of Agriculture. Results of Experimental Farming.:_ Foresting.
Agricultural Science. Growth and Rotation of Crops. Road-making.
Animal and Vegetable Physiology. Management of Stock. Farm-buildings.
Improvements in Implements, described Veterinary Science. Labourers.
by Woodcuts whenever requisite. Drainage. Treatment of Poultry.
Better Modes of Husbandry. Irrigation. Agricultural Publications.
In short, whatever affects the beneficial employment of Capital in hand.
Reports are regularly given of the English, Scotch, and Irish Agricultural Societies and Farmers' Clubs, London Market Prices
of Corn, Hay, Cattle, Seeds, Hops, Potatoes, Vi 001, Coal, Timber, Bark, &c.' and the Weekly Averages.
An Edition is also published Every Monday in time for post, containing the Mark-lane and Cattle-markets.
As regards the GARDENING PART (under the Editorship of Dr. Lindley), the principle is to make it a Weekly Record of every-
thing that bears upon Horticulture, Floriculture, Aboriculture, or Garden Botany, and such Natural History as has a relation to
Gardening, with Notices and Criticisms of all Works on such subjects. Connected with this part are WEEKLY CALENDARS of
GARDENING OPERATIONS, given in detail, and adapted to the objects of persons in every station of life; so that the Cottager,
with:a few roods of ground before his door, the Amateur who has only a greenhouse, and the Manager of Extensive Gardens, are
alike informed of the Routine of Operations which the varying seasons render necessary. It moreover contains Reports of
Horticultural Exhibitions and Proceedings—Notices of Novelties and Improvements—in fact, everything that can tend to advance
the Profession, benefit the condition of the Workman, or conduce to the pleasure of his Employer. Woodcuts are given whenever
the matter treated of requires that mode of Illustration.
REPLIES TO QUESTIONS connected with the object of the Paper are also furnished weekly.
Lastly, that description of DOMESTIC and POLITICAL NEWS is, introduced which is usually found in a Weekly Newspaper.
It i& unnecessary to dwell on this, head further than to say, that the proprietors do not range themselves under the banners of any
Party ; their earnest endeavours are to make the GARDENERS' CHRONICLE and AGRICULTURAL GAZETTE a full and com-
prehensive Record of Feels only—a Newspaper in the true seuse of the word—leaving, the reader to form his own opinions; their
object being the elucidation of the laws of Nature, not of Man. The reader is thus furnished, in addition to the peculiar features of
the Journal, with such information concerning the events of the day, as supersedes the necessity of his providing himself with any
other Weekly Paper.
A Prospectus, with List of Contributors, may be had on application; or by letter, at the Office, 5, Upper Wellington-iireet,
Covent-Garden, London..
From Returns issued by the Government, it appears that the average weekly number of Stamps supplied to the GARDENERS'
CHRONICLE AND AGRICULTURAL GAZETTE during the last eleven years was 6,577.
