PROSPECTUS OF THE PRAIRIE FARMER
FOR 1885,

TINE Prairie Farmer is the leading Agricul
l. trral paper published in the Northwest
1t holds that honest labor is the foundation o
oil lasting prosperity, and that the working
man should be enlightened honored and re
warded. The labors of the Prairie Farmer ar
divided into three departments.
| !. 1t strives to teach the best methods of i'm
proving the farm, its soil, its buildings, its pro
duets, its live stock, its convenience and it,
comforts.
II. 1t believes that fair prices for farm pro
ducts are just rs essential to the farmers pros
perity as large crops and fat cattle 1t labors
| to help him to secure the best market for his
products, and to prevent the middle man from
taking too much toll for his services
III. it labors to enlarge his stock Of ideas
to improve his understanding. and while avoid.
ing partizan politics, to teach him true political
economy.
In addition to vast amount of agricultural
information, the columns of the Prairie Farmer
give the news of the day, both home and foreign
The variety is such, that family need take no
other city paper, and yet be well informed on
the current events and topics of the day. The
art Of condedsing is practised, by which a great
deal can be given in small space.
One portion of the Prairie Farmer discusses
farming; n second gardening; n third mechanics
fyurth household economy; a fifth the markets
very full and accurate; a sixth local news, and
news by telegraph and mail; a seventh devoted
to interesting literary matter, and an eighth to
educational topics forthe young; to all Of which
is added large number of excellent, practical,
and instructive communications, on various
topics, acl week. The Praire Farmer has q
larger circle of contributors than any other agri-
cultural paper in the United States.

penters who were employed in making some
alterations in his library. II e did not ride
out during the day, wGs his custom, but
as he made no complaint of feeling mere indiS-
posed than usual the omission was not thought
by his family to arise from any alarming con-
ditons. He dined with the family about 4
o'clock. and after dinner proposed that they
should spend the evening in amusement con-
