Trial Trip Offer to November l

For more than half a century the
Prairie Farmer has admittedly been
the leader of the agricultural press OF
the western states. No other farm
paper pretends to cover the whole held
of country life so thoroughly-llVe
stock husbandry, grain sewing. veg
etable and flower gardening, dairying,
poultry and bees-all get due cOnsid-
Grafton by the very best writers llv-
ing. The Prairie Farmer, above all
things else, is the practical farmers
paper. 1t gets right down to the
meat of things. 1t does not contain
long discussions that tire the reader,
but essential and important facts are
laid before him at opportune times OF
the year; hence every bit of matter
presented weekly is at once available
The Prairie Farmer is the business
farmers paper. 1t contains each
week such things as the busy farmer
will want to read about. 1t does not
contain a great bulk of trashy matter
that is of no particular interest to
more than one reader out OF thou
sand. In short, no farmer, fruit
grower, live stock breeder or feeder
or dairyman should think of conduct
ing his operations without having be.
fore him the Prairie Farmer as a
weekly guide, On account of the
number of special writer's and illus
trations, the Prairie Farmer costs
more to publish than many other ag'
ricultural papers; but its subscription
price is admittedly the lowest of any
agricultural paper in the field. We
want every farmer who reads this no
tice to try the Prairie Farmer until
November l.
In connection with the Prairie Farm
err we send to every subscriber the
Prairie Farmer Home Magazine sup
plement. This monthly section is de-
voted entirely to country homes. 1t
has USGu ill UfCI WlCllLIlllS ouSNNSH
since it started, and it is really the
only publication devoted to the coun-
try home. Mrs. Bertha Dahl Laws,
Appleton, Mimi, writes about it:
Certainly your Home Magazine is
beautifully gotten up. The tllustra-
tions are fine, and most of all l ad-
mire the back to the soil atmosphere
of it," Mrs. Jeanette Wragg Miller,
Atlantic, To-, writes: "Your Home
Magazine will fill long felt want
among country women. 1t far excels
any other publication, and L know 1t
will meet with the instant success it
is entitled to-" Mr.. Chas. E. Taylor,
Holton. Kan, writes; "'Ihe Prairie
Farmer is as good farm paper as any
one could wish for. The Home Mag
azine makes a complete family paper"
Our offer to new readers is. to send
the Prairie Farmer weekly and the
Prairie Farmer Home Magazine
monthly, both to November j, 1903,
for only 25c. You will not be asked
The commercial. (Union City, Tenn.) 190?-193?, 1903-05-01

to pay for the paper beyond that time
unless you want to become a regq ar
subscriber. We will write you a let
ter about the time your subscriptions
expires, asking you to become
regular reader, but if for any reason
you do not want the paper continued,
all you have to do is to drop us a post
al card, and it will be discontinued at
once. We are confident that if YOU
will read the Prairie Farmer weekly
and the Home Magazine monthly up
to November l, that you will want to
become regular reader of both OF
them.
Don't delay taking advantage ot
this offer. Better send the quarter
to-day while you think OF it; and II
you will get two of your neighbors to
send 25c each with you, we will give
you, as premium for getting the two
other names, one of our beautifW pic
lures, "Can You Talk" This is
beautiful picture, and we know you
will be delighted with it, Address

LITTLE RATCHET.
Weapon Which George Washington
Cut Tree Found.
OLD RUSTI.

In making repairs to the Cd
house where Mary, the mother OF
George Washington, lived and died,
and where the father of his country
often visited his mother, little
hatchet of Anticipated pattern was
found to-day by workmen. The
home is being fitted up as a part OF
the Mary Washington Hospital,
which is under management OF
the Mary Washington Hospital, a
charitable organization OF the old
city. The workmen in removing
the ceiling OF a room discovered the
little hatchet all covered with rust.
1t was of a pattern in use many,
many years ago. 1t was at once
surmrised that it was the historic
weapon with which Washington
made his memorable attack on the
cherry tree, and in connection with
which he made his first and lasting
reputation for verac1ty. It is prob
able that the hatchet will be pre-
scented to the Mount Vernon Memo
rial Association, and treasured at
Washington's old home at Mount
Vernon along with the many other
Washington relics, The Ratchet
was certainly possession of the
presidents family, and there is lit
tie doubt that in his boyhood he
made use of it.

Horse, Chief Mourner.

Kansas City, Mo-, Sept. 3O.-At
the funeral of the late Captain
John O'Grady, held to-day, his
horse, Selim, occupied the place in
the procession of chief mourner
by direction of the executors of the
estate, James Hardness and Chas.
Crpsler.
Captain O'Grady left no rela-
tives whatever. For ten years his
closest companion had been
horse.
So close were the ties which
bound the master and the brute
that, when the undertaken asked
how he should arrange the car
riages, there being no relatives to
follow the hearse, orders were
given to put Selim in place of that
distinction.
The little black was hitched up
to his gay trap, and it was banked
with so many flowers that it was
almost impossible for the driver to
find room to sit.
Under the will, the horse is to
be retired for life, the heirs to pay
the cost of his maintenance.
