VETERINARY DEPARTMENT.

liable to its agricultural readers, we have en-
gagged Prof. JAMES LAW, Veterinary Surgeon
in Cornell University, to answer questions
| concerning diseases OF Cattle, Horses, Sheep,
and other domestic animals, and to prescribe
| remedies. Answers and prescriptions win be
given only through the columns Of the TRI-
BUNE. We are sure that this new feature
in THE TRIBUNE will add largely to its
readers, as all owners of animals are liable to
need the information prohered. Inquiries
should be made as brief as possible, that the
questions, answers, and prescriptions may be
published together. In short, we intend that
THE TRIBUNE shall keep in the advance
in all that concerns the Agricultural, Manu-
| featuring, Mining, and other interests OF the
| country, and that for variety and complete
| ness, it shall remain altogether the most val
liable, interesting, and instructive NEWSPA-
PER published in the world.
1t has been well observed that a careful
reading and study of the farmers Club Re-
ports in the THE TRIBUNE alone will save
a farmer hundreds OF dollars in his crop. In
addition to these reports, we shall continue
to print the best things written on the sub
ject of Agriculture by American and foreign
writers, and shall increase these features frUm
year to year. As it is, no prudent farmer can
do without it. As a lesson to his workmen,
alone, every farmer should place THE WEEK
LY TRIBUNE upon his table every Satur-
day evening.
THE TRIBUNE is the best and cheapest
paper in the country. This is not said in
spirit of boastfulness. 1t has fallen to New
York to create the greatest newspapers of the
country. Here concentrate the commerce, the
manufactures, the mineral resources, the agri-
cultural wealth OF the Republic. Here all the
news gatherers, and the patronage is so large
that journalists can afford to print it. This
| iS the Off of of 10 frPIpITNE a mint
cheapest, and the best edited weekly newspa-
per in the country. We have all the advan-
tages around us. We have great Daily and
Semi-Weekly editions. All the elaborate and
intricate machinery of our establishment, per-
haps the most complete in Americas devot-
ed to the purpose of making THE TRIBUNE
the best and cheapest newspaper in the world.
The result is that we have so systematised and
expanded our resources that every copy OF
THE WEEKLY TRIBUNE contains az
much matter as a duodecimo volume. Think
of it! For two dollars, the subscriber to THE
TRIBUNE for one year buys as much read
ing matter as though he filled q shelf of his
library Nth fifty uolumes, containing the
greatest wOrks in the language. The force
of cheapness can no further go.
THE WEEKLY TRIBUNE is the paper
of the people. Here the eager student may
learn the last lessons of science. Here the
ScnOlar may READ reviews OF the DeSt DOCKS.
Here may be found correspondence from all
parts OF the world, the observations of sincere
and gifted men, who serve THE TRIBUNE
| in almost every country. s4 -
THE TRIBUNE is strong by reason of Its
| enormous circulation and great cheapness 1t
has long been conceded that THE WEEKLY
TRIBUNE has the largest circulation of any
newspaper in the country. For yeals we have
printed twice as many papers, perhaps, as all
Of the other weekly editions of the city dailies
| combined. This is why we are enabled to do
our work so thoroughly and cheaply. The lar
| ger our circulation, the better paper we can
| make.
What. are the, practical suggestions?
Many. Let every subscriber renew his sub
scription, and urge.his neighbors to do the
same. If a man carnot afford to pay two
dollars, let him raise club, by inducing his
neighbors to subscribe, and we shall send him
copy gratis for his trouble. No newspaper
so large and complete as THE WEEKLY
TRIBUNE was ever before offered at so low
price. Even when our currency was at par
with gold, no such paper but THE TRIBUNE
was offered at that price; and THE TRl-
BUNE then cost us far less than it now does
We have solved the problem of making the
best and cheapest newspaper in America.
