The New York Weekly Tribune 
contains all the important Editorials published in the 
DAILY TRIBUNE, except those of merely local inter¬ 
est; Literary and Scientific Intelligence; Reviews of New 
Books; letters from Correspondents; latest news by Tele¬ 
graph from all parts; summary of intelligence ; Synopsis 
of Congress and State . Legislature ; Foreign News ’; Re¬ 
ports of the American Institute Farmers' Club; Talks 
about Fruit; Stock, Financial, Cattle, Dry Goods, and 
General Market Reports. 
The Full Reports of the American Institute Farmers' 
Club, and the various Agricultural Reports, in each num¬ 
ber, are richly worth a year’s subscription. 
HORTICULTURAL DEPARTMENT. 
To keep pace with the growing interest in Horticulture, 
we have engaged Mr. P. T. Quinn, who lias great experience, 
to write on the Management of Small Farms, Fruit and 
Vegetable Culture, and how to make them pay, giving gen¬ 
eral and specific directions from planting to the ultimate 
disposal of the crops. 
THE TRIBUNE will be always ready to guard tile farmer 
against worthless plants under new names. 
VETERINARY DEPARTMENT. 
To make THE TRIBUNE still more valuable to its agri¬ 
cultural readers, we have engaged Prof. James Law, Vet¬ 
erinary Surgeon in Cornell University, to answer questions 
concerning diseases of Cattle, Horses, Sheep, and other do¬ 
mestic animals, and to prescribe remedies. Answers and 
prescriptions will be given only through the columns of THE 
TRIBUNE. AVe are sure that tins new feature in THE 
TRIBUNE will add largely to its value to our readers", as 
all owners of animals are liable to need the information 
proffered. Inquiries should be as brief as possible, that 
questions, answers, and prescriptions may be published to¬ 
gether. In short, we intend that THE TRIBUNE shall keep 
in tlie advance in all that concerns the Agricultural inter¬ 
ests of the country, and altogether the most valuable and 
instructive NEWSPAPER ill the world. 
A careful reading of the Agricultural Department of THE 
TRIBUNE will save a farmer hundreds of dollars in Ids 
crops. We shall continue to print the best tilings written 
on agriculture by American and foreign writers, and shall 
increase these features from year to year. 
THE TRIBUNE is the best and cheapest paper in the 
country. All the elaborate and- intricate machinery of our 
establishment—perhaps the most complete in America—is 
devoted to making THE WEEKLY" TRIBUNE the best and 
cheapest newspaper in the world. The result is that every 
copy of THE WEEKLY" TRIBUNE contains as much valu¬ 
able matter as a duodecimo volume. 
Here the eager student may learn the last lessons of sci¬ 
ence. Here the scholar may read the reviews of the best 
books. Here may lie found correspondence from all parts 
of the world, the observations of sincere, and gifted men, 
who serve THE TRIBUNE in almost every country. We. 
"have solved the problem of making the best and cheapest 
newspaper in America.
