HORTICULTURAL DEPARTMENT.
To keep pace with the growing interest in
practical horticulture, and to comply with
frequent appeals from all parts of the country
for information of a practical character ON
the subject, we have engaged the services of
IA person who is experienced in rural affairs.
to write in a lucid style series of articles on
the management OF small farms, fruit and
vegetable culture, and how to make them
pay, giving general and specific directions
from planting to the ultimate disposal of the
crops
OF late years there has been lucrative
business carried ON by unprincipled men, in
selling worthless and old plants under new
names, to the inexperienced. The Tribune
will be always ready to guard the farmer
against any such imposition that comes with
in our knowledge.
VETERINARY DEPARTMENT.
To make the Tribune still more valuable TO
its agricultural readers, we have engaged
Professor James Law, veterinary surgeon i'll
Cornell University, to answer questions con-
corning diseases of Cattle, Horses, Sheep,
and other domestic animals and to prescribe
remedies. Answers and prescriptions viii be
given only through the columns of the Iii-
bnIte. We are sure that this new feature in
the Tribune viii add largely TO its readers,
as all owners of animals are liable to need
the information preferred. Inquiries should
be made as briet as possible that the aues-
tions, answers, and prescriptions may bepub-
lished together. In short, we intend that tho
Tribune shall keep in the advance in all that
concerns the Agricultural Manufacturing
Mining, and other interests of the country,
and that for variety and completeness, it
shall remain altogether tie Iuost valuable,
instructive NEWSPAPER published in the
world.
1t has been well observed that a careful
reading and study Of the Farmers Club ke-
ports in the Tribune alone will save "a farmer
ntMufeus OF uollafS IN MS crop. In addition
| to the reports, we shall continue to print the
best things written ontbe subject OF agEicul-
| ture by American and foreign writer's, these
| features from year to rear. As it is, no prII-
dent farmer can do without it. As d lesson
TO his workmen alone every farmer should
place the Weekly Tribune upon his table
every Saturday evening.
The Tribune is the BEST and cheapest pa
per in the country. This is not said in 10
/ spirit of boastfulness. 1t has fallen to New
York TO create the greatest newspapers of the
| country. Here concentrate the commerce,
the manufactures, She mineral resources the

all the news gathers, aid the patronage is SO
large that journalists tan afford to print IT.
This is the strength II the Tribune We
print the cheapest, and best edited weekly
newspaper III the country. We have all the
advantages around u.s. We have great Daily
and Semi Weekly editims. All the elaborate
and intricate machinery of cur establish

have SO systematized aad expanded our re-
sonces that every copybf the Weekly Tribune

men who serve the Tribune in almost every

The Tribune is strdg by reason of its
enormous circulation md great cheapness
1t has long been CONCEDED that the Tribune
has the largest circulation of any newspaper
in the country. For vars we have printed
twice avs many papers perhaps, as all of the
other weekly editions 4 the city dailics con-
bined This is why VI are enabled to do our
work so thoroughly alR eheaply. The larger
our circulation, the better paper we can make.
What are hepractial suggestions MANY.
Let every subscriber Enew his subscription,
and urge his neigh boTi to do the same. Ii u
, man cannot afford to ny two dollars let him
raise a club by indulng his neighbors to
