When you want to re’l pood farm
produce of any kind, you offer a
sample and let the prospective
buyer judge it for himself.
That’s just what I’m doing now.
I’m selling The Country Gentle
man. It’s a m ighty good farm
weekly—so good and so live and
progressive that it speaks for
itself even better than I can speak
for it.
Drop me a post card asking for
a sample. When it reaches you,
look it over.
Notice how the departments of
The Country Gentleman jibe with
the departments of your farm, and
\v hat good, sound business sense it
tc Iks. Let your wife read the part
that was written for her. It’s a
farm-family paper.
