PROSPECTUS OF THE PRAIRIE FARMER
FOR 1853.

TIME 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 convenicnces and its
comforts.
III. 1t believes that fair prices for farm pro-
ducts are just as 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. 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 a 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 q great
deal can be given III small space.
One portion of the Prairie Farmer discusses
| farining;a second gardening; a third mechanics
! fyurh household economy; a fifth the markets,
very full and accurate; sixth local news, and
news by telegraph and mail; a seventh devoted
to interesting literary matter, and an eighth to
educational topics for the young: to all Of which
is added large number of excellent, practical
and instructive communications, on various
topics, each week, The Praire Farmer has
larger circle of contributors than any other agri.
cultural paper in the United States.

WE beg leave to call the attcn-
W ton of the Trade, and more

We refer to
Dr.. Chas. M'Lans's Celebrated
Vermi1uge and Liver Pills.
We do not recommend them as
universal Cure-alls, but simply for
what their name purports, viz:
THE VERMIFUGE,
For expelling Worms from tn
human system. 1t has also beel
administered with the most satl'
factory results to various Anlnas
subject to Worms.
THE LIVER PILLS,
For the cure of LIVER Complaints,
all BILIOUS DERANcEMENTs, SICK
HEAD-AcHE, &c. In cases Of
FEVER AND AGUE,
preparatory to or after taking GU
nine, they almost invariably make
a speedy and permanent cure.
As specifics for the above men
toned diseases, they are Unrlvaled'
and never known to fail when aa-
ministered in accordance with f'
directions.
Their unprecedented popularity
has induced the proprietors'
