Real Value Of Newspapers.

While we were engaged in farming,
which was many years, i'll the Wes-
tern States, we always took several
agricultural papers; and we could SAT :
Iy say, each year, that there was some
item or article in each number that
was clearly as much value to us, and in
tangible form, as the cost of the paper
for the whole year. And we have
heard many other reading, thinking
farmers say the same. They learned
something in every number by which
they were considerable gamers; and
without which they would have been
losers to much more than cost of the
paper. Yet, how many farmers say
they Cant afford to pay one or two
dollars for paper" So says the edi-
tor of the Baltimore Farmer.
