Some persons will subscribe for a paper from seeing a 
campaign ropy, got np with special care for the purpose of 
" taking," or through the importunities of club agents, or 
before reading % copy, and in most cases come out about as 
the boy does on his " pony." (]) It turns out to be a hog 
instead of a horse, and naturally rushes for its accustomed 
place— the swail. Be careful then to suhsrribt* for a paper 
that will prove what its name indicates and every copy as 
good or better than the last. We, therefore, to prevent such 
a mistake, offer to iend any and all applicants a specimen 
copy of the 
FRUIT RECORDER & COTTAGE GARDENER 
free, or three copies of different months for ten cents, or we 
will Bend the paper for next year and the balanre of this 
year for the regular subscription price, |l.Qn. The editor 
and proprietor, A. M. Puedy, ia a life-long worker in the 
soil, and hat now under cultivation over two hundred acrts 
in lruit, vegetables, and flowers. He also exchanges for all 
the leading agricultural and horticultural papers of the day, 
and copies into the 1'ecokdeu aMpractii-al matter of value. 
He can show more testimonials hb t o its worth in proportion 
to the number of its subscribers than can be produced for 
any other paper of its class in the country. A single speci- 
men copy of any of its issues will satisfy nil on this point. 
Club agents will fmdonrttnns very satisfactory, while ladies 
and lovers of flowers and fruits will find our premium off it 
extremely liberal. Send for onr terms and specimen copies. 
Again, many people pay out $1.5H to $?.f)0 for books on 
growing small fruit, when they can get more practical In- 
formation from our &4 page
