New Series of Farm Catalogs by a
 Hustling Concern.

The remarkable increase in demand for farm land and farm homes dur ing the past few years has led to many marked changes in the methods employed by brokers, who handle agricultural land exclusively, to serve their customers. Several farm agencies issue elaborate yearly cata- logs of farming lands for sale in vari- ous sections of the country, many of them gotten up at considerable ex- pense and in the most artistic form; but all of these pale into significance i'll light of the latestinnovation. This is a series of 12 catalogs a year one of which is published every month in the year by the E. A. Strout Con- pany, with headquarters in New York, Boston and Philadelphia, and branch offices throughout the Eastern SIdIeS. lue MdfCH lSsue, tHe nlSI ol the series, has just been put ill circu- lation. It bears the title "Strout's Monthly Bulletin of Farm Bargains" It is in two editions, ore for the New England states and one for those states to the south and west. The monthly is an illustrated booklet of the usual magazine size. Succeeding issues will appear on the first of every month.
