and are obliged to forward your requests to

We desire to call the attention of our readers, es¬ 
pecially those who desire to purchase plants, ma¬ 
chinery, &e., to our advertising columns where they 
will find the cards of many first-class firms whom it 
is a pleasure to recommend for fair dealing. Should 
you want anything in their line write to them before 
ordering elsewhere, and in so doing, it may be an 
advantage to all concerned if you will say you saw 
their advertisement in Seed-Time and Harvest. 
Now is the time to make reports of gar¬ 
dening operations for publication. They are 
interesting even if they are reports of fail¬ 
ures, especially if the causes of the failures 
are given, as they expose the quicksands on 
which we are ail liable to stumble and show 
us how to avoid them in our operations. 
THE EDITORS TABLE. 
The high character of “The Popular Science 
Monthly” is vigorously sustained by its October 
issue. Of its fifteen articles there is none which will 
not repay careful reading, and from which something 
new and valuable can not be learned. The present 
state of thought in regard to the nature of life is well 
reflected in the first article, by Paul R. Shipman, on 
“Matter Living and Not-Living.” Dr. Bayard then 
takes a hand in the conflicts of the medical schools, 
to show that “Homoeopathy” is a “Science.” Dr. 
Abraham Jacobi has an elaborate and most interest¬ 
ing article on “The Historical Development of Mod¬ 
ern Nursing.” “Clothing and the Atmosphere,” by 
Radeau; “The Chemistry of Cookery,” by Professor 
Williams; and “The Alcohol-Habit,” by Dr. Osv r ald, 
in his series on “The Remedies of Nature,” are papers 
of great practical worth. Those of more purely 
scientific interest are “Cyclones and Tornadoes,” 
“The Colors of Flowers,” “Vegetating Animals,” 
“How the Earth was Peopled,” “The Liver-Fluke in 
Sheep, “The Savings of Science,” etc., etc. There 
is a portrait and biographical sketch of the cele¬ 
brated hygienist of Munich, Dr. Max von Patten- 
kofer, and a large mass of criticism and miscella¬ 
neous information in the editorial departments. The 
October “Monthly” is a kind of scientific book that 
will be permanently valuable, and this is wherein it 
differs from most of the other magazines. 
D. Appleton & Co., N. Y. Fifty cents per number, 
$5 per year. 
The Philadelphia Record is a marvel of cheap¬ 
ness, It is a large 32-column paper, printed every 
day in the year, containing all the notable news of 
the country and a vast amount of other interesting 
reading matter. It is mailed to subscribers at the 
low price of $4.00 per year, and sold upon the street 
at one cent per copy. Every Saturday the Record 
prints a double sheet, giving sixty-four columns for 
one cent. The Saturday edition contains an excel¬ 
lent Fanners’ department. The Record has attained 
a daily circulation of 117,000 copies. 
The entire New York World newspaper property 
was sold to Mr. Joseph Pulitzer, and has been 
changed in purpose, policy and principle. The 
Weekly World is now one of the brightest, newsi¬ 
est and most readable weeklies which comes to our 
to our office.
