It is the unanimous opinion of snooess• tul up-to-date farmers that the F' wily Herald. and Weekly Star, of ntreal, is of more practical benefit t em than any purely agricultural entire'. In addition to its splen • agricultural section it is also a e y newepaperiind magazine that no ily oats well afford to be without. A the finial]. price of one dollar a ear it is the 0 mar l ve of the. newspaper world. Any person wanting the beet dollar's worth they ever got Should give the Family Herald and Weekly Star a trial for 1008. The enor• mous demand for it at this reason of the year makes it necessary to remit early to ensure getting the paper promptly.
