agricultural papers published In the United
States. Specimen Nos, sent to those reques-
ting them.
2. ii is not published for the whole coun-
try, but for the especial benefit Of western
farmers.
3. Most of the matter is supplied by cor
respondents, more than three hundred in
number. from all parts of the West; as bo-
dy unsurpassed in ability and practical
knowledge, by those of any other agricutu-
raj paper,
4. 1t is illustrated with an abundance of
we'll executed engrayings; is we'll printed

MED with cover to keep il clean.
S. A full and complete Index is sent to

out 800 pages, Invaluable as work Of ref
erence,
3. The information contained either un-
der the head of sVete1,nary Department. or

1t contains Chicago Prices Current,

other markets
g, Common Schools are too much neg
lected in the West. and two or three pages
are occupied with disseminating the mosl
important information concerning them.
9. 1t lis permanently established and as
