We are in receipt Of the January num-
Der of that sterling agricultural journal,
The Southern C,4ltirator and Dirie Farmer.
1t has been changed in form, being made
more compact-magazine size-and can
be handled with greater satisfaction and
preserved in better condition than the old
form. This issue numbers over seventy
pages, and in quantity it is ahead of any
agricultural publication that comes to
our Office, while in quality it is the only
journal of it's kind that is fully adapted
to the needs of our Southern farmers.
The very best Southern talent is employ
ed in its columns. The Thoughts for
the Month";" and the Inquiry Depart
ment," are alone worth the subscription
price. The paper has pages for special
departments of farm work, and they are
full and interesting. Without enumera-
ton of the excellencies of this magnifi-
cent journal, We advise each and every
one not subscriber, to send $1.5O to Jas.
p. Harrison & Co., Atlanta, Ga, for n
years subscription.
