The WEEKLY TRIBUNE, now more than thirty
years DID, has endeavored to keep up with the
progress Of the age in improvement and in en-
terprise. 1t devotes n large share OF its col.
umns to Agriculture as the most essential and
general Of human pursuits. II employs the
dblest and most successful Cuitiyators to set
forth in brief, clear essays their practical views
of the Farmer work. It reports public dis
cussiOns which eucidate that work gathers
from every source agricultural news, the re
ports of the latest experiments, the stories Of
the latest successes and failures, and whatever
may tend at once to better Agriculture, and to
commend it as the first and most important OF
progressive Arts, based on natural science.
The WEEKLY TRIBUNE appeals also 10 leash
ers, Students, and persons of inquiring minds,
by the character of its Literary contents which
include reviews of all the works proceeding
from the master minds Of the Old or New
World, with liberal extracts from those OF
especial interest Imaginative Literature also
claims attention, but in subordinac degree.
