Rensselaer Union, Volume 1, Number 13, Rensselaer, Jasper County, 24 December 1868 — The Prairie Farmer. [ARTICLE]
The Prairie Farmer.
The Prairie Farmer, published : at Chicago, is, since its enlarge- i ment, preeminently the paper for I the farmers of the Northwest. It was the first established, it is the! cheapest, the neatest, the most 1 widely, circulated, and the most ■ reliable paper of its class published : at the West. It contains the inqqt original mat- ■ ter, and in the greatest variety; displays the most enterprise in reporting, and is an acknowledged j standard of authority; the contribu- J tors to its columns are among the , very best in Tirtdr~S7rCTral classes! j that the country affords; its articles, without exception, are well and concisely written or carefully se-! looted, aijd altogether it gives the ! best general satisfaction, and is nearest to ths hearts of its thousands of readers of any agricultural journal published in the Great West, and in no respect inferior to any in in the United States. Let these i statements be weighed by every person who thinks of taking an agricultural or family paper the coming year, and let it be remembered that while the price is only two dollars, the publishers furnish to every new subscriber, in addition, a copy of the Prairie Farmer Annual' for 1859, which now sells for 30 cents per copy, and is well worth twice that amount.
