said there could be wido breach. for the reason
that the great majority Of the society strongly

Are coming in every day.

You can travel all over this coun

quality and reasonable prices.
The early buyers are never dis

Many Of these dress fabrics we

samples you may miss a satisfac-
tory selection.
Our sales early in the season

Worth Reading Twice.

Before you enl .rge production,
cheaper it's cost.
The moon is never right while the
seed-bed is cloddy.
Country roads are too often paved
with good intentions.
No man ever reaped foul wheat
from clean ground and clean seed.
When prices are low is just the
time to improve your farm animals.
A cross may be better than full
blood for feeding, but never for
breeding.
Fortunes favorites are the men
whose thoughts make ways for their
actions.
If there were more drains on the
farm there would he fewer druggists
in the village.
Make easy and short the way to
the butcher, of the animal that has
learned to break fences.
There is some sentiment about
having an ice house on the farm, but
there is at least as much financial
wisdom.
Pay cash, if YOU have to borrow
money to do it. The banker will
charge you less than the merchant
for credit.
Good farming consists rs much in
overcoming adverse circumstances
as in improving fully favorable OPP
portunities.
On an average, the man with he
| fewest clods in the field in the fall
has the most wheat in the field the
next summer.
Let the hogs clean up the waste
apples and peaches under the trees,
and there will be fewer waste fruits
next year. There will also be better
hogs this year.
You cannot increase your products
without increasing your expenses,
but production increases at faster
rate than expenses increase. Herein
is the greater profit of good farming.

In the year 1845 the present own
ers OF the Scientific american news
paper commenced its publication,
and soon after established bureau
for the procuring of patents for in
ventions at home and in foreign
countries. During the year 1S45
there were only SOP patents issued
from the U. S. Patent Office, and the
total issue from the establishment
OF the Patent Office, up to the end Of
that year, numbered only 4,347.
Up to the first If July this year
there have been granted 406,413.
Showing that since the commence
ment Of the publication of the Scien
tifc american there have been issu-
ed from the U. S. Patent Office 402,-
166 patents, and about one third
more applications have been made
than have been granted, showing the
ingenuity of our people to be phe-
nomenal, and much greater than ever
the enormous number of patents is
sued indicates. Probably good
many Of our readers have had bust
ness transacted through the offices
of the Scientific 1merican, in New
York or Washington, and are famil-
lar with Mum & Co.'S mode of do
ing business, but those who have not
will be interested in knowing some
thing about this, the oldest patent
soliciting firm in this country, prob
ably in the world.
Persons visiting the offices Of the
Scientific Americon, 361 Broadway,
N. Y, for the first time will he sur
prised, on entering the main Office,
to find such an extensive and ele-
gantly equipped establishment, with
its walnut counters, desks and chairs
to correspond, and its enormous
safes, and such u large number Of
draughtsmen, spec ification writers,
and clerks, all busy as bees, remind
ing one of large banking or insur
apce office. with its hundred EN-
.ployes.
In conversation with one OF the
firm, who had con menced the busi
ness of soliciting patents in connec-
ton with the publication Of the Sci
entifc american, more than forty
years ago, l learned that his firm
had made application for patents for
upward of one hundred thousand in
ventors in the United States. and
several thousands in different
foreign countries, and had filed as
many cases in single month as
there we're patents issued during the
entire first year of their business ca
reer. This gentleman had seen the
Patent Office grow from sapling
to a sturdy oak, and he modestly
limited that many thought the Scien-
tifc american, will its large circu
lation, had performed no mean share
in stimulating i'm entions and adj
vancing the interests of the Patent
Office. But it is not alone the pat
ent soliciting that occupies the at
tention of the one hundred persons
employed by Mum Il Co., but
large number are engaged on the
four publications issued weekly and
monthly from their office, 36l Broad
way, N. Y, viz. The Scientific
american, the Scientific american
Supplement, the Export Edition of
the Scientific american, and the
Architects and Blu lder's Edition of
the Scientific american. The first
two publications are issued every
week, and the latter two, the first Of
every month.
