4-^RURAB 
Every farmer, gardener, and frnit grower 
should read and study books concerning his 
business as much so as those in other walks of 
life. It is true that everything you see in 
books does not apply to your individual case, 
but by reading good practical books, many 
valuable suggestions are found that must be 
valuable to the reader. I am offering the fol¬ 
lowing list, the most of which are in my own 
library and I should not care to be without 
them. The name in each suggests the subject. 
Order all books by number. All hooks offered 
are in cloth binding, except those otherwise 
noted.

THREE PAPERS THAT EVERT FARMER 
THE FARM JOURNAL. Enclosed you will 
find a coupon offering this paper two years for 
the insignificant sum of 25c If you will read 
the paper, every issue will be worth this to 
you. Its reading matter is condensed usually 
in short paragraphs and you do not have to 
read a page or two to get an idea that can be 
conveyed in as many sentences. If you are 
not already a subscriber,don’t fail to send this 
coupon to the Farm Journal with 25c. If you 
are not satisfied with the results, let me know 
and I will personally refund your money. 
THE RURAL NEW-YORKER. You will find 
a little envelope enclosed in this catalogue, 
addressed to the Rural New Yorker. In one 
ecd of the envelope is a little slot that holds 
ten cents. By slipping a dime therein, writ¬ 
ing your name and address on tne envelope 
where space is provided, and mailing direct to 
the Rural New Yorker, they will send you 
this paper on trial thirteen weeks. If it isn’t 
worth twice that to you after reading it, and 
you can conscientiously say so don’t, fail to 
advise me and I will personally return your 
money. This paper is published weekly, and 
like the Farm Journal, all advertisements are 
AND FRUIT GROWER SHOULD READ. 
guaranteed to be reliable That alone is worth 
a. great deal The Rural New Yorker is made 
up of practical, original matter and is not 
composed of clippings from other papers. The 
editor travels from place to place the country 
over, and sees and knows wbat he is talking 
abont. Give the paper a trial. Be sure and 
do, I think you will like it. Then they will 
send you the paper a year for a dollar and give 
you a book on Gardening that sells foi 75c. 
THE PRACTICAL FARMER. You will fiud 
enclosed a coupon offering yon this paper of 
sixteen pages fifty two times a year for fifty 
cents: or, better yet, three years fora dollar 
bill. This paper is edited by Prof. W. F. Mas¬ 
sey. who is world renowned authority on hor¬ 
ticulture. This paper also publishes each week 
a letter from T. B. Terry, who writes for the 
Practical Farmer exclusively. His letters alone 
are worth many times the price. Whether you 
farm one acre or one thousand, you can’t 
afford to be without this paper. In fact you 
need all three, and they all cost such a little 
there is no excuse for being without them. 
Send all subscriptions direct to the papers and
