THE WEEKLY TRIBUNE

IS THE BEST AND THE CHEAPEST PAPER FOR

FARMERS AND FAMILIES.

THE WEEKLY TRIBUNE, now more than thirty years old, devotes a large share of its columns to Agriculture, employing the ablest and most successful cultivators to set forth what they know of farming in brief, clear essays, elucidating and commending Agriculture as the first and most important of progressive arts based on natural Science.

No other periodical has done more to imbue our farmers with the truth, that the best instructed cultivator of the earth is far superior in efficiency to the strongest or even the most diligent. We mean to make THE TRIRUNE an authority in every department of Productive Industry. Invention and Machinery are rapidly transforming the processes whereby Labor ministers to the physical wants of mankind.

"Home Interests" are discussed each week by a lady specially qualified to instruct and charm her own sex, and the younger portion of the other. No column is more eagerly sought or perused with greater average profit than hers. The News of the Day is condensed, while given sufficiently in detail to satisfy the wants of the average reader.

As to its political principles, THE TRIBUNE is of course, hereafter as heretofore, the champion of Equal Rights, irrespective of Race, Nativity or Color. Independent of all political parties, THE TRIBUNE endeavors to treat them all with judicial fairness. It labors to purify the administration of Government, National, State and Municipal, and whenever those in authority take the lead in this work, it will therein give them its cordial support, but it can never be the servitor of any political party; nor will it surrender or even waive its right to criticise and condemn what is wrong, and commend what is right in the action of any parties or of any public men. To whatever may elucidate the general discussion or action on the topics of the day THE TRIBUNE gives amplest space and most impartial record; its readers have the right to an honest statement of the facts; and this they always get.

In short, THE WEEKLY TRIBUNE commends itself to Millions by ministering to their intellectual wants more fully than they are met by any other journal, while its regular reports of the Cattle, Country Produce, and other Markets, will of themselves save the farmer who regularly notes them, far more than his journal's price.

For the family circle of the educated farmer or artisan, THE WEEKLY TRIBUNE has no superior, as is proved by the hundreds of thousands who, having read it from childhood, still cherish and enjoy it in the down hill of life.

We respectfully urge those who know its worth to commend THE WEEKLY TRIBUNE to their friends and neighbors, and we proffer it to clubs at prices which barely pay the cost of paper and press-work.

ONLY $1 A YEAR IN LARGE CLUBS.

Dear Sirs.-Yours of yesterday asking for my experience with H. W. JOHNS' PATENT ASBESTOS ROOFING duly received. In answer, would say, I have used Mr. Johns' Roofing and Coating extensively for TEN YEARS past, and with great satisfaction. I have applied it to more than three hundred roofs in Rockford, Illinois, and adjacent country. I have roofs in Rockford that have been on EIGHT YEARS Without Repairsthey are sound and good, and by simply recoating will last as much longer. I have seen and tested many kinds of Composition Roofing during the past ten years. I have seen nothing that comes up to "Johns' Patent Asbestos." Truly yours, L. M. WEST.

THE NEW YORK LEDGER

FOR THE NEW YEAR, 1873.

THE GREAT FAMILY PAPER

Instructive and entertaining as the LEDGER nas been in the past, we hope and intend to make it still more instructive and entertaining in the future. Our experience is greater than heretofore, and our ambition to make the LEDGER the best paper of the kind published in the world, is undiminished.

It is the aim of the LEDGER to cultivate a taste for reading in the rising generation, and at the same time, by the character of its contents, to contribute constantly to their moral and intellectual improvement and growth.

An epicure might as well undertake to write down what he would have for dinner every day for twelve months to come, as for us to attempt, at this time, a catalogue of all the good things that will be spread before the readers of the LEDGER in 1873. Our old subscribers will bear us witness that all the promises we have ever made have always been more than fulfilled. We never let slip an opportunity to obtain any really good and desirable thing. Expense and trouble never stand in our way. And in this respect, as it has been in the past, so it will be in the future.

The LEDGER is particularly devoted to the interests and welfare of the young. A vast number of questions about lovers' quarrels, propositions of marriage, plans for housekeeping, and the best means of brightening the future of youthful married couples, are answered in its columns.

re manly the

One great and guiding principle with us is to inculcate the sentiments of self-respect and self-reliance, and thus to strengthen and rend characters which are just assuming form, to endure through al

The LEDGER is always full of life. Nobody ever complains single number is dull.

It has the largest number of great and distinguished writers. It contains the purest, sweetest and most delightful stories, striking narra tives, and instructive biographical and historical sketches.

It has the most popular and carefully prepared collection of scientific facts. Many of the most distinguished clergymen of the country write for it. All our favorite old writers will continue to write for the LEDGER; and we are always on the keen look-out for any new developments of real rising genius. OUR TERMS FOR 1873-NOW IS THE TIME TO SUBSCRIBE.

Single copies, $3 per annum; four copies, $10, which is $2.50 a copy; eight copies, $20. The party who sends us $20 for a club of eight copies, (all sent at one time,) will be entitled to a copy free. Postmasters and others who get up clubs, in their respective towns, can afterwards add single copies at $2.50. No subscriptions taken for a less period than one year. Canada subscribers must send twenty cents in addition to the subscription, to pay the American postage. When a draft or money-order can conveniently be sent, it will be preferred, as it will prevent the possibility of the loss of money by mail. The postage on the LEDGER to all parts of the country is only twenty cents a year, or five cents a quarter, payable at the office where the paper is delivered.

We employ no traveling agents. Address all communications to
