The 1995 Old Farmer’s Almanac
that the 1995 edition could also help
you find the perfect mate? Or clue
you in to the healthiest vegetable of
all?
The 1995 Old Farm er’s A lm a­
nac — still with its recognizable yel­
low cover and nail hole in the corner
— can be found at newsstands, super­
markets, and bookstores all across
America. Plus, with a price tag under
four dollars, it’s prob­
ably cheaper than you
ever thought, consider­
ing it has hundreds of
pages packed with en­
tertaining, informative
articles guaranteed to
spice up your life - or at
least your bedtime read­
ing.
Even though it’s the
nation’s oldest continu­
ously published periodi­
cal, the Almanac prides
itself on remaining up-
to-date. In the opening
pages of this year’s edi­
tion, readers will find a
section entitled “Con­
sumer Tastes and Trends for 1995.”
Any chain-saw or hobo art, old com ­
puters, or hammered aluminum hand­
bags or jew elry are some of “hot”
collectibles for the coming year. Also
Predictably M ore Than You Ever
Imagined
There is something refreshing,
and even downright delightful, about
getting more than you expected out
o f anything, especially The Old
Farm er’s Almanac. Where else can
you find a 203-year-old publication
loaded with new, fascinating things
to read every year?

listed are food, fashion, and home
trends, plus new answers to old ques­
tions, including “W here does lost
airline luggage end up?” and “Is it
safe to go to swimming after eating?”
“Our goal is to pack the pages of
the Almanac with useful wit, wis­
dom, and entertaining, insightful ar­
ticles,” explains Judson Hale, the
publication’s 12th editor since it was
founded in 1792. “W e also throw in
some uncommon information. Where
else would you find a Gestation and
Mating Table that includes rams and
boars right next to a list o f plants that
attracts butterflies?”
