To Farmers & Produce Dealers. 
W E have now ready a new and valuable liook for every 
Parmer and Produce Dealer, called “Scribner’s 
froduce 1ABEES,” exhibiting at onc view the value of more 
than sixteen thousand different quantities of Grain com¬ 
puted at sl.xty pounds to tlie bushel, so arranged as to nre- 
^nt on the same page Uie value of the whole number of 
bushels and pounds, at the same price. 
The object of this book is to enable farmers;, produce 
dealers, mechanics, and traders of all classes, to swat one 
glance, the price of Grain and Produce, but it is so arrang¬ 
ed in dollars and cents, that the price of any articles hav¬ 
ing to be measured or weighed can be readily found, there¬ 
by saying time and warranting accuracy, which from hasty 
calculations often happens. ^ 
Mr. Scribner’s former books have attained a reputation 
for correctness and accuracy, and become so popular 
wherever known, as to need no recommendaffons, and this 
one will recommend itself to every one interested as soon 
as seen. 
9f the book is twenty-five cents at retail 
which 18 cheaper than any Produce Reckoner now pub¬ 
lished, and 90 low that every person can possess a couv._
