formed people to have access to reliable
maps. Not all can afford the heavy
library aliases, and even they are often
found untrustworthy unless new copy
is purchased as often as revised.
If you want an atlas, small enough for
general use, full enough for nearly every
purpose, critically accurate and up to
date. we recommend the new Handy
Atlas Of the world, published by Messrs.
Ivison, Brakeman, Taylor & Co., 753 and
755 Broadway, New York, which is both
a credit to them and to the American
press. It is bound in flexible cloth,
contains 80 beautiful colored maps and
important statistics. Among its many
notable good things are maps showing
standard time, the railways of the United
States, recent polar expeditions, Central
Africa as explored by Stanley, the seat
of the Egyption war, Bible lands, and
our principal American cities. If your
bookseller does not have this excellent
work, send fifty cents direct to the pub.

Winter Reading

Itappeurs to be notable fact that the
best farmers, and the best stockmen are
the very best friends Of newspapers.
1t is generally the old fogy and the
ne'er-do-wclls. that scott at "book and
newspaper larnin," and if they are in
duced to take their home county paper
they lever read it. The progressive
farmers, those that get thirty bushels of
wheat to the acre, and own fine, fat,
sleek cattle and horses, are invariably
men whose sitting room table will be
generously supplied with, not only local
newspapers, but agricultural journals,
books relating to stock, to feeding ami
mails, which contain the thoughts and
experiments of able men. who devote
their time and energies to advance the
cause of agriculture and to learn how to
produce more abundant crops, as well as
to surround their stock with the best
conditions for raising them successfully
and probably.
Every farmer in the Northwest will be
benefited greatly by subscribing TO one
Or more good agricultural papers, and if
one is published near by it certainly
should be regular visitor in the family.
The Northwestern Farmer, published
at Fargo, Dakota, is doing a good work
throughout the Northwest, and We have
decided to otter il to every old subscriber
as we'll as to all new subscribers i'll con.
nection with the PIONEER EXPRESS for
50 year, the subscription being paid in
advance. Or, you can order the North
western Farmer direct from Fargo for
one dollar per year in advance. We will
have sample copies sent to any address
on application.
