sCRIBNER'S MONTHLY FOR

Without recalling the excellence Of the past, the
the year to come, the following papers:
THE PICTURESQUE SIDE OF AMERICAN
FARM LIFE - This subject win be treated in
series of separate papers engaged from writer's who
stand in the front rank among Americans, both in
qualities of style and in keen insight Of nature
MIR. r. E. Robinson, author OF delightful paper
on g Fox-Hunting in New England" in the January
number, will represent the same section in this
series. John Burroughs, whose papers on similar
topics have been highly priced and popular fea-
ture of SCRIBNER, will write of Farm Life in New
York. Maurice Thompson, the poet-naturalist,
will describe the characteristics of Western farm
ing, of which but little has been written. It is
pected that the illustration of this series viii be of
a refined and typical character, commensurate
with the subject-matter It is thought that no pa,
per series of papers yet issued in ScRIBNER will
so fully realize the constant desire Of the magazine
to keep out of the ruts, and both in text and illus
trations, to obtain quality, and to print fresh,
strong and delicate work from original sources.
