The WEEKLY TRIBUNE, now more than thirty
years old, has endeavored to keep up with the
progress of the age in improvement and in en-
terprise. 1t devotes a large share of it's col
umns to Agriculture as the most essential and
general Of human pursuits. 1t employs the
ablest and most successful cultivators to set
forth in brief, clear essays their practical views
of the Farmer work. 1t reports public dis
cussions which elucidate that work: gathers
from every source agricultural news the re-
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.
HE " EEELY TRIBUNE appeals also to Teach
ers, Students, and persons Of inquirng minds,
by the character Of its Literary contents, which
include reviews Of all tie works proceeding
World, with liberal extracts from those of
especial interest. Imaginative Literature also
claims attention, but in subordinate degree.
''Home Interests are discussed weekly by a
lady specially qualified to instruct and interest
her own sex, and the younger portion of the
other. No column is more eagerly sought or
perused with greater advantage and profit than
hers. The News Of the Day, elucidated by
biief comments, is SO condensed that no
reader can deem it difuse, while given SUI:
fciently in detail to satisfy the wants of the
average reader. Selections are regularly made
from the extensive Correspondents Of The
DAILY TRIBUNE from every country, and its
editorials OF more permanent value are here
reproduced. In short, THE WEEKLY TRIBUNE
commends itself to Millions by minstering to
their intellectual wants more fully than they
are met by any other journal, while its regular
reports Of the Cattle, Country Produce, AMI
other Markets, will Of themselves save the
farmer who regularly notes them far more than
his journals price.
For the family circle of the educated farmer
or artisan, THE WEEKLY TRIBUNE has no su.
peror, as lis proved by the hundreds of thou
sands who, having read it from childhood, still
cherish and enjoy it in the prime and on the
down hill of life. We respectfully urge those
who know its worth to commend The WEEKLY
TRIBUNE to their friends and neighbors, and we
profer it to clubs at prices which barely pay the
cost Of paper and presswork.
