Every man that strlveth for the 
mastery Is temperate In all things. 
LAWSUITS FOR $150,000 
Are now pending against The Rural 
New-Yorker for its exposures of humbug 
, practices. 
Many of our subscribers have volunteered 
to contribute $5 to $20 each for the defense 
of these lawsuits, for which they have 
our most earnest thanks. But we do not 
ask and cannot accept help of that kind. 
We do ask, however, every reader who be¬ 
lieves in The Rural New-Yorker and Its 
mission, to help us extend its Influence Into 
every farmer’s home. We want a million 
readers Will you help to beat the hum¬ 
bugs In this way t 
Our new special terms for this season are 
very attractive to both possible subscribers 
and the workers. We want only our in¬ 
telligent readers to represent us in this 
work. 
We do not care for the “ trial” subscrip¬ 
tions ; we lose too much money on them. 
But we make the new and special offer by 
which we will send the piper to any new 
yearly subscribers from receipt of order 
to January 1, 1893. 
If you want to help please send for our 
new special club rates. The earlier the 
work begins, the longer will the new sub¬ 
scribers receive the paper; 15 months 
costs no more than 12 ! 
N. B - The R. N.-Y., yearly subscriptions 
received since January 1, have numbered 
nearly twice as many as during the same 
period last year. Will you help f 
HOW THEY LIKE OUR PREMIUMS. 
A Few of Many. 
The Atlas and also the Cook Stove fruit 
drier are entirely satisfactory.—F. E. VAN 
EPS, Ontario C J., N. Y. 
I received the Cook Stove fruit drier all 
right and am pleased with it. Inclosed 
pleate find check f jr $7 for which please 
send by Adams Express one on the same 
terms, that is the fruit drier and The Rural 
New-Yorker for three years from this date, 
to Btnjamin S Martin.— M. D. Kendig, 
Lancaster Co., Pa. 
The watch sent me by The Rural New- 
Yorker is fully up to expectation. It will 
be a pleasure to tell my friends from whom 
I receive i it.—C. L. Riddell, McPherson 
Co., Kan. 
The map has been received In good con¬ 
dition. Thanks 1 It exceeds my expecta¬ 
tion. I do not see how so large and fine a 
map can be furnished for so little money 
—unless it is owing to the McKinley Bill. 
I shall recommend the map as something 
every family should have.—R. W. Pierce, 
Lake Co., Fla. 
The map fully meets my expectation. I 
think it comes fully up to your recom¬ 
mendation.—H. F. Tripp, OrleansCo., N.Y. 
The more I examine the map the better I 
like it. It is wonderful what a large 
amount of information can ba condensed 
into so small a sptce. * * * The drier 
was received this morning. I have bean 
drying apples to-day and I am more than 
plea led with it.— Jas. Davis, Warren Co., 
Ohio. 
The map was duly received in good order. 
It is the best map of the United States I 
have ever seen. The wondar is that you 
can sell it so cheaply. — [Prof ] C. C. 
GEORGESO-V, Agricultural College, Manhat¬ 
tan, K ins. 
The U. S. map was received in good con¬ 
dition and I am well satisfied with it. 
Every family without a map ought to have 
one.— Issachar Currier, Grafton Co., 
N. H. 
The map is a marvel of cheapness, a mine 
of knowledge ; the best family map that I 
have ever seen.—A llem Reynolds, Bris¬ 
tol Co., R. I. 
My watch was duly received and I am 
much pleased with it in every way.— 
[Prof.] C. C. Georgeson, Kansas Agri¬ 
cultural College 
A Good Razor.—As good a razor as we 
have ever used came to hand the other day 
from E Warren, of Ligonier, Indiana. It 
is so good that we have thrown away the 
old one, and are now using Mr. Warren’s 
four times a week with the utmost satis¬ 
faction. It is so good, too, that we shall 
soon offer it as a premium to our sub¬ 
scribers. 
The Convenience of Solid Trains. 
The Erie is the only railway running 
solid trains over its own tracks between 
New York and Chicago. No change of cars 
for any class of passengers. Rates lower 
than via any other first-class line.— Adv.

FASHIONABLE COLORS FOR FALL. 
It is fortunate for many women that fall and win 
ter dresses are dark, for they can easily dye lighter 
colored dresses to some fashionable sh ide, and come 
out In a new gown, with little expense. 
They have found by aclual experience how easy It 
Is to save dollars by spending dimes for these Dia. 
mond Dyes: 
Fast Blacks (silk, wool cotton.) 
Fast Browns (dark, seal, gold.) 
Fast Blues (navy, ludtgo. dark.) 
Fast Greens tllght, dark, bottle.) 
Tnese twelve standard Dlamoud dyes make co’ors 
that will never fadt or crock, wnl'e washing in soap 
suds makes them look brighter au i fresaer. These 
twelve, as well as the thirty other colors, are so sim¬ 
ple an l easy to use that no one ought to wear a faded 
or unfashionable colored dress, or cast it aside until 
worn out. O.hers u~e them successfully, and why 
not you 't-Adc. 
TIlElttt NO BETTER

The Manurlal Value of the offal from animals fed 
upon O.l Meal Is an Important factor also to be 
considered The columns of The Rukxl N bw-Yorker 
at times have valuaule information in this respect.
