awake to the demands of their own calling to be
longer satisfied with the slow monthly issues OF pa
per profcssedly devoted to their interests TO trust
alone to the irresponsible extracts in farmers

ted to business politics, or iteraturo and they look
for the united support of all the intelligent farmers
of this country in their continued effort to furnish
weekly paper of high and reliable character which
shall be progressive and at the time cautious
and conservative in all its teachings.
Essentially an agricultural Paper.
The Agrscaituria win not depart from its legiti-
mato sphere to catch popular favor by numbering up
its pages, with the silly, fictitious literature and
light, miscellaneous matter Of the day; it has high
or aim and small part only Of its space will bo
devoted to matters notimmcdiately pertaining to the
great business of Agriculture. The household as
we'll ms tho outdoor work Of the farm viii receive
due share of attention. The humbugs and nostrums
ahoat in the community will be tried by reliable sci
entifc rules and their worthlessness exposed Ii is
the aim Of the publishers TO keep this paper under
tho guidance of those who win make it a standard
work. which shall communicate to its readers only
that which is safe and reliable.

ges sudiously given alone to the support and I'm
provement OF the great agricultural class.
