ARITHMETIC MADE EASY. 



ROPP'S EASY CALCULATOR. 



A new publication that must prove of incalculable benefit to 

 Fanners, Mechanics and Business men. It is so rapid ^nA origi- 

 nal as to startle the most scholarly, and yet so simple SlT^A practical 

 that the most illiterate in figures can instantaneously become his 

 own accountant. It enables thousands to accomplish in a minute 

 what they could not learn to calculate in many months. 



The first part containing an entirely new system of Tables, show- 

 ing at a glance the exact values of all kinds of Grain, Stock, Hay, 

 Coal, Lumber, Merchandise, etc., from one pouTui xrp to a car load, 

 and for any price which the market is likely to reach ; the interest 

 on any sum for any time at 6, 7, 8 and 10 per cent.; correct measure- 

 ment of all kinds of Lumber, Saw Logs, Cisterns, Tanks, Granaries, 

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

 valuable tables. 



The second part is impractical Arithmetic, and embodies a simple 

 mathematical principle which enables any one familiar with the 

 fundamental rules to become a lightning calculator; and by which 

 over tiuo-thirds of the figures and labor required by the ordinary 

 methods, i-ad. fractions with their intricacies, are entirely avoided. 



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

 elegandy bound in pocket-book shape and is accompanied by a 

 Silicate Slate, Memorandum and Pocket for paper. It is by far the 

 most complete, comprehensive and convenient pocket manual ever 

 published.
