PUBLISHER’S DESK. 
Here is the first letter received referring 
to last week’s special number: 
I must express my appreciation of the 
special horticultural number of The R. N.-Y. 
It contains a store of up-to-date information 
which is of the greatest value to both the 
practical fruit grower and the scientific 
worker in horticulture. I expect to find fre¬ 
quent occasion to refer to it during the 
coming season. f. b. 
West Virginia. 
This is from a Pennsylvania man: 
I think The R. N.-Y. comes nearer filling 
the bill for a poultry man or small gardener 
than any other paper of its kind I know of. 
I am particularly interested in the Mapes 
and Cosgrove 'etters. w. j. p. 
Pennsylvania. 
T his New York State man found some¬ 
thing of service to him: 
Your articles on farm water works and on 
cement as building material help me out. 
New York. w. j. d. 
Many more similar letters might be 
given showing the diverse interests repre¬ 
sented in The R. N.-Y. family. Send on 
your questions and experience regarding 
farm and business matters. 
Here is a letter from a Long Island, 
N. Y., man, who is receiving urgent invi¬ 
tations to come in on the “ground •floor” 
in various stock jobbing schemes: 
I like the stand you take for facts and 
truth. My mail is filled with get-rich-quick 
and mining schemes for which I have no 
use, and wonder why they come. I en¬ 
close samples. 
These consisted of form letters with 
printed signature and several circulars of¬ 
fering a limited number of shares of some 
company or other. They neglected to say 
just what. The shares at present are $5 
each, but will soon go up to two or three 
times this sum. The promoters of this 
scheme are certainly not lacking in nerve. 
All you have to do is to send along the 
money for as many $5 shares as you want 
and then wait developments. Another 
reader has circulars offering stock in the 
telegraphone company. He wonders 
whether this is a fake. It is not. There 
is such an invention, a sort of hybrid be¬ 
tween telephone „and phonograph, which 
appears to have merit. Yet we would not 
advise anyone to put money in a thing of 
this sort unless he thoroughly understood 
the risk. No one can guarantee that even 
a worthy invention will bring profit to 
those who invest in it. 
An agent has been through this section 
of the country selling oats. They are called 
Mammoth Cluster oats. The firm is L. P. 
Gunson & Co., Rochester, N. Y. The farmer 
pays $2.50 a bushel and must sign an agree¬ 
ment not to sell any of their first cron 
short of $1 a bushel. Do you know tl>o 
firm? What do you think of'it? s. w. b. 
Oneida Co., N. Y. 
This house has a good financial rat¬ 
ing and good credit. We asked them if 
they claimed this to be a new oat, and if 
so, when and where originated. We also 
asked them if they were responsible for 
the restrictions on the first year’s crop, 
and if so why. They say they imported 
the oats in 1901 ; and wish to control it 
for two years, which is their reason for 
restricting the sales of first year’s crop. 
1 hey say they make no restrictions where 
the farmer buys only two bushels. We do 
not think a restriction of this kind would 
be effective, and the dollar price for first 
year’s crop appeared to us as a clever 
stimulant for the mind. 
We have a man here in Bridgehampton 
who has a registered brood sow of one of 
the black breeds, which he bought from W 
R. Seileck, Huntington,L.I..N.Y., and the sow 
was represented to he in pig with the same 
breed boar, and when the pigs came thev 
were white. m t 
New York. 
What earthly redress has a farmer in 
such a case? The breeder may say it 
is a case for the courts, and not for 
newspaper comment, but a farmer cannot 
afford to go to court for redress in 
such cases. We propose a little publicity 
as a court substitute. 
I am sending my renewal before the su 
script ion runs out because I want an ear 
grapevine. The Rorai. suits me as a far 
paper and gives good value for the mono 
1 am mailing with this seven letters in a 
swer to advertisements in The R. N.-Y.. 
you see I use all of your paper. The R. N.- 
takes my dollar and gives in return ro- 
bottom facts. It does not give a life sti 
scrlption for 30 cents with an insurau 
policy thrown in. and I am willing to pay 
fair value for what I get. 
Spring is nearly here and those grape¬ 
vines will soon be going out. Has your 
renewal been sent yet?
