The rspid population Of the whole region OF

be almost exclusively an agricultural country,
probably more SO than any part OF the Stlte,
must make the City Of Boonville by far the
most desirable location for the publication

There IS no paper or periodical in this

nois OF Indiana, devoted to agriculture
hence all Our Western farmer. become ,ribu-
tary 10 Eastern publications for such lights
as they have upon the various improvements
IN the modes of agriculture. The doctrine
OF book farming, once considered as abso-
lutely ridiculous, is becoming every day more
IN use, and the interchange of opinions by
intelligent cu!tivators OF the soil are more
sought after as their beneficent results are
more frequently seen and acknowledged. We
deem it not inappropriate 10 incorporate the

ing truths:
Science must combine with practice 10

you rob a nation of its principal jewel.
