;
Offers Unusual Opportunity to Its Readers
MONG our large circle of readers
there arc a great many who are in-
terested directly or indirectly in
fruit growing, dairying and other
branches of farming. All of theae
naturally wish to keep in dose touch with ag­
ricultural activities throughout the state;
and to know about any fight which is being
waged for the measures Oregon farmers
want and against all sorts of schemes that
are detrimental to the people and agricultural
interests of this state.
We have, therefore, made a special clubbing
arrangement with THE OREGON FAR­
MER whereby any farmer or fruitgrower,
who is one of our regular subscribers and who
is not now a subscriber to THE OREGON
FARMER, will be entitled to receive THIS
OREGON FARMER in combination with
this paper at the same rate as for this paper
alone.
This offer applies to all those who renew or
extend their subscriptions as well as to all
new subscribers. If you are interested di­
rectly or indirectly in Oregon agriculture,
do not miss this unusual opportunity, but
send your order in now.
THE OREGON FARMER is the one farm
paper which is devoting itself exclusively
to the farming activities and interests of
Oregon. It has a big organization gath­
ering the news of importance to farmers,
dairymen, fruitgrowers, stock raisers and
poultrymen; and it has the backbone to at­
tack wrongful methods and combinations and
bad legislation, and support honest leaders
and beneficial measures. We are confident
that our readers will congratulate us on our
being able to make this splendid and at­
tractive clubbing offer.
