The Prairie Farmer, published a,
Chicago, is, since its enlargement, pres
emirentlv the paper for the farmers of The
Northwest. 1t was the first established,
il is the cheapest, the neatest, the most
widely circulated, and the most reliable
paper of its class published at the West.
Ii contains the most original matter, and
in the greatest variety; displays the most
enterprise in reporting, and is an acknowl-
edged standard OF authority the contribu-
tors TO its columns are among the very best
in their several classes, that the country
affords; its articles, without exception,
are we'll and concisely written or carefully
selected, and altogether it gives the best
general satisfaction and is nearest to tie
hearts of its thousands of readers of any
agricultural Journal published in the Great
West, and IN no respect interior to any 10
the Cuite,, States. Let these statements
be weighed by ever, person who thinks
of taking an agricultural Or family pc.ner

and retained every advantage once gained.
The literary character of the work has
been sui generis, and always retained
the goodwill of those who made its ac-
quaintance. Cooley, although followed bv
numerous rivals and imitators, Is still of
entertaining and agreeable writers. We

tiers Musical Monthly or United States
Musical Review" For, whether we re,
gard the Literary and Musical worth, the
cheapness, or the typographical excellence,
il is not only the most useful but talented
publication In the country. Being largely
engaged in the publication of Music, Mr.
Peters always has fresh stock TO select
from, and is no ways 10th to draw from

need introducing to become Immensely
popular. by circulating his best pieces in
