| "OUR OWN OHIO"
Will ever be entitled to first regard; and most
heartily do we rejoice to know that our abors thus
far in her behalf have been instrumental In ava.
kening spirit of improvement among her farmers,
which is already producing highly beneficial re-
suits. Our Giant State, with her boundless natu-
raj resources, and over two millions Of inlIabi..
ants. is beginning to awake to the sense Of her
hgh destiny. As evidence Of this, we refer 10
the rapid progress OF Railroads and other public
improvemen,s-to the Fifty Agriculture! Soce-
ties ganized within the past five years, and espe.
caIly to the magnificent STATE FAIR. which
NAV Justly he regarded as the commencement Of
new era in the progress of Agriculture in Ohio
I We appeal then with confidence to the friends
Of improvement in Ohio, to HELP ON THE
WORK-by inducing as many as possible OF your
friends and neighbcrs to join with you in subscribe
+ ing for the OHIO CULTIVATOR This will DO
sure to increase the number aud usefulness Of tho
I County Agricultural Societies, and also awaken
more interest in behalf at
ANOTHER AND BETTER STATE FAIR,
Which will undoubtedly take place another year.
Should the in, rease OF subscribers be sufficient
to warrant the expense, il is the intention Of the
Editor to spend month or two in England the
coming summer, to witness the great event Of tho
: age THE WORLDS INDUSTRIAL FAIR,
ard write extended notes for the benefit OF his
readers at home; also 10 take survey Of the pro-
gress Of agricultural impro vements In that cout.
try since his visit there ten years ago. Should he
not be able to 20 himself. the readers may rely
finding in the pages of the Cultiyator, extensive
notes on the Worlds Fair, from the pen Of del.
9 egate from Ohio, and from other reliable sburces
Q A large portion Of our columns will continue
TO be devoted to Agriculture and Horticulture. In
their practical details, and much Of science and
theory relating to these arts is consistent for
!. work Of this kind. Notice will be taken of new
discov cries and ventons, carefully distinguish.
ing between those Of established utility, and those
10 of doubtful character, and especially avoiding or
exposing the numerous species Gf the genus hum
bug. which are becoming sore pest to farmers.
The "Ladies Department" of the paper, will.
as heretofore, be especially devoted 10 the inter.
ests OF female readers; and with the aid of the
10 new Edilress. and several talented contributors,

IN The state Of the Markets will be carefully No,
ticed in each number, and such information given
as may be thought most useful to farmers IN help,
ing them to decide when and where to dispose ol
il their surplus productions, &C. This information
a alone, has often been found Of more value than
" many times the cost Of the paper for year.)
