/ Of late years there has been lucrative
business carried on by unprineipled 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.
/ Tomake 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 ether domestic animals, and to prescribe
! remedies. Answers and prescriptions will be
/ given only through the columns of the Irl-
| 6une 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 proffered. Inquiries should
| be made as brief as possible, that the ques-
tionk answers, and prescriptions may be pub
| lished together In short, weintend that the
Tribune shall keep in the advance in all that
! concerns the Agricultural, Manufacturing,
MIXING, and other interests of the country,
and that for variety and completeness, it
shall remain altogether the most valuable,

Eports in the Tribune alone will save Il farmer
hundreds of dollars in his crop. In addition
to the reports we shall continue to print the
best things written on the subject of agricul-
ture by American and foreign writer's, these
features from year to year. As it is, no pru>
dent farmer can do without it. As 81 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 -
spirit of bOastfulness. 1t has fallen to New
| York to create the greatest newspapers of tho
country. Here concentrate the commerce,
i the manufactures, the mineral resources, the
agricultural wealth of the Republic Hero

lrge that journalists can afford to print it.
Hhis is the strength of the Tribune We
print the cheapest, and best edited weekly
newspaper III the country. We have all the
advantages around us. We have great Daily
and Semi Weekly editions All the elaborate,
and intricate machinery of our establish
ment-perhaps the most complete i'll America
lis devoted to the purpose of making the,
| Heekty Tribune the best and cheapest news-
\ paper in the world. The result is that we
have so systematized and expanded our re-
lAsouees that every copy of the Weekly Tribune
contains much matter as duodecino volume
/ Think of it For two dollars, the subscriber
to, the Tribune for one year buys as much
hisiibarary with fifty volumes containing the
greatest works in the language. The Ioree
| OF cheapness can no further go.
/ The Weekly Tribune is the paper of the
people Here the agersudent may learn tho
| last lesson of science. Here the scholar NAV
| read review of the hest books. Here may be-
found correspondence from all parts of the
| world, tie observations of sincere and gifted
men who serve the Ii-ibNne in almost every
| country.
The Tribune is strong by reason of its
enormous circulation and great cheapness
| 1t has long been conceded that the Tribune
has the largest circulation of any newspaper
in the country For years we have printed
| twice as many papers, perhaps, as all of the
other weekly editions OF the city dailies com
bined. This is why we are enabled to do our
work so thoroughly and eheaply. The larger
our circulation, the better paper we can make
/ What are the practical suggestionsi Many

and urge his neiglbors to do the same. If a
man cannot afford tospay two dollars. let him
raise club, by inducing his neighbors to
subscribe, and we shall send him a COPY
gratis for his trouble. No newspaper 50
large and complete as the Weekly Tribune
was ever before offered at so low n price,
Even when our currency was at par with
gold, no such paper but the Tribune was of
fered at that price; and the Ii.ibane paid
us far less than it now does Wehafe solved
the problem of making the best and cIleal,-
est newspaper in America.
