ARITHMETIC MADE EASY. 



ROPP'S EASY CALCULATOR 



Is a new publication that must prove of incalculable benefit to 

 Farmers, Mechanics and Business men. It is so rti/i./ and ^r/^Vm/ 

 as to startle the most scholarly , and yet so simplej-mifiracticmirhtt. 

 the most illiterate in figures can instantaneously become his own 

 accountant. It enables thousands to accomplish ia a minute what 

 they they could not learn to calculate in many months. 



The first part containing an entirely new sysie»t ut' Tables whick 

 shows at aglance the exact values of all kinds of ijrain. Stock, Hay, 

 Coal,LuniVjer Mtrchandise,etc., fromo«^/t>«n«i\ip to a car load ,t:DA 

 for any price which the market is likely to reach ; ihe Intere&t 00 

 any sum for any time at 6, 7, 8, and jo p r cent. ; correct measure- 

 ment of all kinds o< Lumber, Saw Logs, Cisterns, I'anks, Granaiies, 

 Bins, Wagon Beds, Corn Cribs; a Time. Wages, and many other 

 valuable tables. 



The Secondpart is a /raf/rVa/ Arithmetic, and embodies a timpl* 

 mathematical principle which enables fl«^ oKe familiar with the fun- 

 damental rules to become a lightning lalculater ; and by whick 

 over two thirds of the figures and labor required by the ordinary 

 methods, ■ind/ractions-m'w.'h their intricacies, are entirely avoidti. 



The work is nicely printed on fine tinted paper, is well and ele- 

 gantly bound in pocket-book ihape and is accompanied by a Silicate 

 Slate, Memorandum and Pocket for papers. It is by far the most com- 

 plete, comprehensive and convenient pocket manual ever published.
