i'UP'The publisher owes it alike to the subscribers 

 to the " Farmers' llegister," as well a.s to himself, to 

 say, that the non-appearance of this Journal on the 1st 

 instant, {as pro mis eU,) was owing entirely to the unex- 

 pected loss of one or two workmen, whose places could 

 not at once be filled at this season of the year. He 

 hopes, however, to be able to issue the February No. on 

 or before the lOlh day of that month.
