PROSPECTUS OF THE PRAIRIE FARMER
FOR 1855

THE Prairie Farmer is the leading Agricul-
| l. tural paper published in the Northwest
1t holds that honest labor is the foundation of
oil lasting prosperity, and that the working
man should be enlightened, honored and re-
warded. The labors of the Prairie Farmer are
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 its
comforts.
| III. 1t believes that fair prices for farm pro-
ducts are just as essential to the farmers pros
penty 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 1t 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 great
deal can be given in small space.
One portion of the Prairie Farmer discusses
farming;a second gardening; a third mechanics;
a fyurth household economy; fifth the markets
very full and accurate a sixth local news, and
news by telegraph and mail; seventh devoted
to interesting literary matter, and an eighth to
educational topics for the young; to all of which
is added a large number of excellent, practical,
topics, each week. The Prare Farmer has a
larger circle of contributors than any other agri
cultural paper in the United States.

or THE SPEEDY cuRE OF

ron THE SPEEDY CURE OF
Intermittent Fever, or Fever and Aguet
Remittent Fever, Chin Fever, Dumb
Ague, Periodical Headache, or Bilious
Headache, and Bilious Fevers, indeed
for the whole class of diseases. origi.
mating in hillary arrangement, caused
by the Malaria Of miasmatic countries.
No one remedy is louder called for by the
necessities of the American people than sure
and safe cure for Fever and iAgue. Such
we are now enabled to offer, with q perfect
certainty that II will eradicate the disease,
and with assurance, founded on proof, that
no harm can arise from its use in any guam
tity.
That which protects from or prevents this
disorder must be of immense service in the
communities where it prevails. Prevention is
better than cure, for the patient escapes the
risk which he must run in violent attacks Of
this baleful distemper.- This "CuRR" expels
the miaslnatic poison of FEVER AND AeUB
from the system and prevents the develop
ment of the disease, if taken on the first ap-
proach Of its premonitory symptoms. It Is
not only the best remedy ever yet discovered
for this class of complaints, but also the
cheapest. The large quantity we supply for
a dollar brings it within the reach Of every
body; and in bilious districts, where FEVER
AND AeuE prevails, every body should have it
and use it freely both for cure and protection.
1t is hoped this price will place it within the
reach of all-the poor as well as the rich. A
great superiority Of this remedy over any
other ever discovered for the speedy and GER
tain cure of Internlittents is, that it contains
no Qunine or mineral, consequently it pro-
duces no quinism or other injurious effects
whatever upon tn. constitution. Those cured
by it are left as healthy as if they had never
had the disease. -.....H. H.. -.,....
Fever and Agueis not alone the consequence
of the miasmatic poison. A great variety Of
disorders arise from its irritation, among which
are Neuralgia, Rheumatism, Gout, Headache,
Blindness, Toothache, Earache, Catarrh, Asth-
ma, Palpitation, Painful Affection of the
Spleen, Mysteries Pain in the Bowels, Collie,
Paralysis, and Derangement of the Stomach,
all of which, when originating in this cause,
put on the intermittent type, or become period
ical. This Cure" expels the poison frsm
the blood, and consequently cures them all
alike. 1t is an invaluable protection to immi-
grants and persons travelling or temporarily
residing in the malarious districts. If taken
occasionally or daily while exposed to the in
fection, that will be excreted from the system.
and cannot accumulate i'll sufficient quantity
to ripen into disease. Hence it is even more
valuable for protection than cure, and few will
ever suffer from Intcrmittents, if they avail
themselves Of the protection this remedy af-
iords. r 49,.
