Standard Horks on Agriculture, embracing thoss
which, by their cost the language in which they
written. would otherwise seem beyond the reach
Of nearly all American Farmers. In this way we
shall give for two three dollars the choicest
European treatises and researches in Agriculture,
costing ten times much in the original editions,
not easily obtained at any price, and virtually out
Il tho reach of men who live by following the pillow
In the Farmers Library they viii be accompanied
BY notes from the Editor, explaining what may be
obscure TO American readers, or calculated TO mis-
sad the beginner in Farming, owing TO difeIenc
oi Soil, Climate, &c. The wo,ks published in the
IIhra'y will form complete series, exploring and
txhibiting the whole field of Natural Science, and
ae7eoping the rich measures which Chemistry, Ge-
o.oyy and Mechanics have yielded and may yield
10 tighten the labors and swell the harvest of the
Intelligent husbantman. The work will be so ar
Iansed that The Farmers Library may be bound up
y Itself, forming mammoth volume of GOO pages

therein may be bound separately.

paHment alone will ours resemble any American
york ever yet published. 1t can hardly be neces-
sary to add tha; Political, Economic, or other
'onsToveried doctrine, will be incucatsd through
MS magazine. Its psice will be Five Dollars a

600 pages each. Five copies viii be sen, 10 the
address Of any one sending $50.
Each number Of the Library viii be illustrated
