Much valuable information can be
found within its covers. It is given to
all subscribers of the Iowa Homestead,
and right here we would say

The Best In The Country.

(From The Davenport Gazette)

It is gratifying to be able to commend to
the farmers of Iowa, a journal published
in their own State which meets every requirement
for their needs in an agricultural
periodical. The Iowa Homestead,
published at Des Moines by B. F. Gue,
is such an one. It is the equal, in its line
of the very best farmer's paper published
in the country. It is edited with rare
ability and is the bold defender of the
farmers rights against the barb wire
monopoly and the outrage of 'protection.'
It is in every way a worthy publication.
