PUBLISHER’S DESK. 
In one mail last week we received 200 
subscription orders with remittances; of 
these five remitters had neglected to sign 
name or address. This is a larger pro¬ 
portion than usual; but there is more or 
less of tiiis right along during the year. 
Of course we have no way of knowing 
who sent the money unless we receive a 
complaint from the sender, and some of 
the most vigorous complaints we receive 
come from people who make these mis¬ 
takes. Still, we do not mind the com¬ 
plaint, even when it comes with force be¬ 
hind it. Some of the senders never write 
us at all, and probably conclude that we 
were after their money and nothing else. 
It is these people that we are most anx¬ 
ious about. If old subscribers should 
hear of any of these disappointed sub¬ 
scribers, they will confer a great favor 
by advising them to write about their 
failure to get the paper. 
There is a sentiment in this letter from 
the Southwest that touches a sensi¬ 
tive chord, Here is a bond of sympathy 
and interest that stretches from the At¬ 
lantic to the Pacific: 
I would not fhink of being without The 
R. N,-Y.; it is'like an old friend. We feel 
that we know you all, and that you are in¬ 
terested in our work, as we certainly are in 
yours. There is no paper In the same class 
with The It. N.-Y. It is head and shoulders 
above them all. “Apple Growing in Oregon - ’ 
would be worth thousands to our farm¬ 
ers here if they could read it. We can 
raise as good apples as anyone can, but the 
worms spoil over 50 per cent, just because 
farmers here don’t think spraying will save 
them. This is the only pest we have, or the 
only drawback to apple growing here. 
Aztec, N. Mex. a. p. a. 
Here are some extracts from recent 
letters which accompany renewal of sub¬ 
scriptions. We are frank to say that the 
thousands of letters like these which we 
receive from every section of the country 
please us very much: 
I take pleasure in acknowledging the re¬ 
ceipt of “The Business Hen,” and am very 
grateful for it, for I have learned a good 
many points from it already. ji. w. 
Brooklyn, N. Y. 
I think The R. N.-Y. and “The Business 
lien” a good combination, there being no 
waste matter; it will bo all dlgeslible, 
Bethalto, |li, j. 
Thanks for your reminder of the expiration 
of my subscription to The R. N.-Y. Un¬ 
closed find $1 to pay for same; also please 
send me a copy of “The Business lien." I 
enjoy The It. N.-Y, very much, and think It 
superior to any oilier farm paper I know of. 
Success to your work. e. i,. m. 
Woodhull, N. Y. 
I am much pleased with the spirit of uni¬ 
versal co-operation manifested by your paper.

E. Pittsburg, I’a. a. c. 
Enclosed find .$1 for The It. N.-Y. for one 
year; also send “The Business Hen,” as we 
will need her soon, f was thinking of (put¬ 
ting you. but after sending for a sample copy 
of nil other agricultural papers I could think 
of I concluded I could not get along without 
The It. N.-Y. ,r. a. b. 
Jackson, Mo. 
Enclosed fin'd $1 for renewal of my sub¬ 
scription to The R. N.-Y. Also please send 
me “The Business lien.” If the farmers all 
got as much value for every dollar they spend 
as they get from their subscription lo The 
R. N.-Y'. they would all lie rich. Thank you.

To introduce The R. N.-Y. to new read¬ 
ers we send it 10 weeks for 10 cents. Our 
old friends are helping greatly in this 
work. Can't you send one? 
A Graphophone Swindle. —The Atchison 
Globe, which says a good many wise things, 
remarks that there are farmers all over the 
country who would save money if they for¬ 
got how to write. It doesn’t make much dif¬ 
ference how often they have been caught 
on such things as lightning rod contracts 
which turn up as promissory notes, they will 
attach their names to meet any kind of a 
document which an agent presents. Recently 
a lot of the most intelligent farmers in the 
vicinity of Delphos attached their names to 
contracts for graphophones. A smart agent 
went to their houses and played a few tunes 
on the machine. The women folks were in¬ 
variably delighted, and urged their husbands 
to buy it. In the end they signed contracts 
which they supposed would bring them a 
graphophone and twenty records for the sum 
of $7. After the machines had been de¬ 
livered the contracts turned up in a local 
bank in the form of promissory notes in 
which the buyers promised to pay $7 for 
the machine and $15 each for twenty re¬ 
cords, or $307 in all. 
1 [»S«]HOMAS A. EDISON, the in- 
ventor, in mapping out the 
Jf jl problems of the future, gives 
St (a■) iV P^ ace to the necessity of 
fighting the bacteria which 
give us our diseases. Next 
tHT to the actual bacteria of dis¬ 
ease, the mosquitos and flies 
are the most dangerous enemies of man. 
The mosquito with its bite injects into our 
veins malaria, yellow fever, and other fatal 
troubles. The fly, with spongy feet, collects 
the invisible germs of diseases, spreads 
them over our food and poisons us with 
typhoid, cholera and other plagues of the 
human race. 
Dr. Pierce, the eminent physician of Buf¬ 
falo, N. Y., says, "If each person will con¬ 
sider his sy tern as an army of men which 
he controls as a general, and will see to its 
proper provisioning and that it has plenty 
of ammunition in the shape of good red 
blood, he will be able to overcome the 
enemy in these germs of disease.” Every 
healthy man has five million red blood 
corpuscles to every square millimeter of 
blood. The best tonic for increasing the red 
blood corpuscles and building up healthy 
tissue is no doubt Dr. Pierce’s Golden Med¬ 
ical Discovery. This medicine has been on 
the market for over a third of a century 
and numbers its cures by the thousand. 
Many popular patent medicines or tonics 
are made up largely of alcohol and will 
shrink the corpuscles of the blood and 
make them weaker for resistance. What 
is needed is an alterative extract, like Dr. 
Pierce’s Golden Medical Discovery, made 
of roots and herbs, without the use of alco¬ 
hol, that will '■ssist the stomach in assimi¬ 
lating or taking from the food such ele¬ 
ments as are required for the blood, also an 
alterative iat will assist the activity of the 
liver and cause it to throw off the poisons 
in the blood. When we have accomplished 
this we have put the system in a fortified 
condition so strong that it can repel the 
germs of disease which we find every¬ 
where— in the street-cars, the shops, the 
factories, the bedrooms, wherever many 
people congregate, or where sunlight and 
good air do not penetrate. 
Accept no substitute for "Golden Medical 
Discovery,” There is nothing "just as 
good ” for diseases of the stomach, blood 
and lungs. 
Neglected constipation means headache, 
heart-burn, sour stomach, foul taste in the 
mouth, biliousness, pimples, and palpita¬ 
tion of the heart. Constipation is promptly 
cured by Dr. Pierce’s Pleasant Pellets. One 
for mild cases, otherwise two.

The Hero 
POULTRY CERTAINTY. 
For several years thousands of enthusi¬ 
astic poultrymen the world over have said 
of the Standard Cyphers Incubator, “You 
can’t improve it.” But the Cyphers Incu¬ 
bator Co. believes in advancement, and for 
1905 announces several important 
improvements, especially in the 
regulation. Its new improved 
Thermostat and regulating device 
is the highest type of scientific 
self-adjustment, combined with 
durability and practical working 
value. You can’t, make it go 
wrong. This, with other patent¬ 
ed, exclusive features enables the 
company to give the strongest guarantee 
ever placed on an incubator. At the same 
time, owing to improved facilities, the com¬ 
pany is able to make a very radical reduc¬ 
tion in prices for 1905. A number of new 
machines have been added to the com¬ 
pany s line, including two new special incu¬ 
bators at $6.50 and $10.00.
