Such a Paper as demanded by The Turning
Community.
The publishers confidently believe that the agri-
culturists of this country are becoming too much
awake to tho demands of their own calling to be
longer satisfied with the slow monthly issues OF pa
per professedly devoted to their interests to trust
alone TO the irresponsible extracts in farmers
column, popular just now in papers chiefly devo-
tod to business, politics. or literature; 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 same time cautious
and conservative in all its teachings.
Essentially an Agricultural Paper.

mate sphere to catch popular favor by numbering up
its pages, with the silly. fictitious literature, and
light miscellaneous matter OF the day il has high
or aim and small part only Of its space will 10
devoted to matters not immediately pertaining tho
great business Of Agriculture. The household as

aHoat in the community will hc tried by reliable sc
entfc rules, and their wortbessncss exposed. 1t is
tho aim of the publishers TO keep this paper under
the guidance of those who viii make it a standard
work, which shall communicate to its readers only
that which is safe and reliable.
