A CARD FROM CONRAD WILSON. 
The suspension of “ The Business Farmer,” 
though unavoidable at the time it occurred, does 
not by any means terminate the work intended, 
nor will Id necessarily prevent the Huai attain¬ 
ment of some objects deemed Important. But the 
new departure now proposed requires a change of 
base, and some variation lu the plan. Having 
nearly recovered from the late severe prostration 
to which, tor a time, l was compelled to succumb, 
I now feel warranted in resuming my work, in 
which already some results have been accom¬ 
plished, while others more Important are left un¬ 
finished. 
In ]U9ttce to other parties. It Is proper to say 
here, that the company who have hitherto co-ope¬ 
rated to aid my efforts have been prompted from 
the first by unselfish motives, and a deep interest 
In farming topics rather than with a view to pecu¬ 
niary profit. It ought also perhaps to be further 
stated, that soon after the company was lorraed 
we lost the services of the two mo3t efficient par¬ 
ties. The Rev. Mr. Brown was suddenly removed 
by death, and Mr. Charles Cook was called away 
on private business In Canada. Yet no wish has 
been expressed by tbe company to abandon the 
paper. On this point, however, It Is Incumbent on 
me to say. that I could not expect, nor can I even 
consent to, any further eltort on their part to sus¬ 
tain the paper, since the cause of interruption 
was no fault ot theirs. 
Periodicals are often transient, but Truth sur¬ 
vives. It the doctrines of “ The Business Farmer” 
are sound, their future Is assured. The Journal 
may disappear, but the work will go on through 
other channels. To my friends and patrons I owe 
a debt of gratitude, aud they will hear from me 
at Intervals that I trust will not oe few or Tur be¬ 
tween. All subscribers who have renewed for the 
present year will find the matter arranged to their 
satisfaction. 
In another column of this journal I have pre¬ 
sented a few comments on some Feeding experi¬ 
ments of great value conducted by parties whose 
views, experience and reputation, give much 
weight to their teaching.
