A Real Farm Letters From Our Advertisers You cover a Terr desirable section most thoroughly, and our clients are universally satisfied with results; in fact, we do not know of a single in stance last year when your paper did cot "make good" for us. It is a pleas ure to send your advertising, because you make it a profitable investment for our clients. Wliite's Class Advertising Co. Chicago, 111., Jan. 23, 1907. Paper I read by farmer and etockrafln. It is a claas publication 'I carried lire stock advertising. And, tha Tolume ot tbt advertising Indicates Its circula tion and standing among farmers. This tect is unfailing. ' Ttae average farmer Is conservative. He Is not a spec ulator and he Is not easily stam peded. When he spends his money to advertise his pure-bred cattle, horses, sheep, or swine, he demands results. He selects a farm paper that Is read TO TIE FARMERS OF THE CENTRAL WEST THROUGH THE ADVERTISING COLUMNS OF Greater results have been obtained from the advertising riven you than from any other paper we have used. 1 Khlflds-Iicgfr Land Co. Ft Morgan. Colo., Nov. 2, 1906. JJby farmers. . y f There' are many fake farm papers. They may fool advertisers, but they do not fool the farmers. They have plenty of fake advertising, but no live stock advertising placed by real farmers. ... J. wo 1 By This Test THE i'ENTIETH CENTURY FARMER makes good. Nearly two hundred farmers and stockmen are advertising In each issue. Their busi ness shows an increase of more than SO ' over last year. In the months of October, Novem ber, December, January PVbruary and March the live stock advertising In this paper ran up to nearly 600 Inches la each Issue. '' It filled nearly eight pages of space. Most of this farmers advertising stays In the paper the year 'round. This means something. . It means a great . circulation, among the best class of farmers and stockmen In the west. .It ; means that THE! TWEN TIETH CENTURY FARMER is a real farm paper, read by real farmers. 65.000 Paid Subscribers The subscription list of THE TWEN TIETH CENTURY FARMER Is a paid list, and 65,000 farmers are paying one dollar a year each for the paper. There Is no free list except to adver tisers. Thirty subscription solicitors are now at work in Nebraska, Iowa, Missouri and Kansas. They work at all the big fairs and live stock shows In the central west, during the fall. At other seaeona they work through the country, in small towns and at stock yard points. Each new name added to the Hat means a dollar paid for one year, or DO cents for six months. We da not get auWHbers through guess ing contests, ' or fake1 schemes. The list is growing at such a rate that we can safely , guarantee from 70,000 to 76,000 by January 1st, 1908, but there will be no advance In rates. . Write for ample copy and advertising rates.. MIBSBSSS UEKfTD o)MIs To) It is today the greatest Belling agent in the Trans-Mississippi country for the manufacturers of farm machinery, for real estate, for mail order goods of any description, for anything, in fact, sold to farmers and stockmen, or to the women folks in the country home. There never was a time in the history of the west when our farmer were so prosperous. They all have money in the bank and they are enjoying not only the comforts but the luxuries of life. They buy pianos, automobiles and diamonds, to say nothing of the thousand-and-one necessities of life. And they are peculiarly susceptible to advertising for many of them live remote from cities and towns. They buy largely by mail and only a few people in the cities realize what a large volume of business is handled for farmers through the post offices and the express companies. Especial attention is called to the demand for cheap land in the west, southwest and in Canada. Thousands of farmers are selling high priced land in the Mississippi and Missouri valleys and are buying cheaper land farther west. ILEAL ESTATE DEALERS Should not overlook this opportunity to send word to the 65,000 farmers who read The Twentieth Century Farmer. Why not tell them what you have to sell? Why not send in an order for a combination ad. for The Fanner and The Daily Bee? One will reach the people on the farms of the west; the other covers the cities and towns of Nebraska and western Iowa like a blanket. The rates are low. Write for full information. We will co-operate with you in every practical way to secure results. , Ihe : Twentieth Century if aimer OMAHA, NEBRASKA. y Your paper has always paid me and you will get as much of our advertis ing as any western farm paper, M.

Here is what the Monitor Drill Com pany of Minneapolis, Minn., wrote us last winter: "We have Teceived nineteen replies to our first advertisement of January 3d, at a cost of 29 oants each, which is not bad." Here la what the Linlnger Impfe ment company of Omaha, one of the largest wholesale implement dealers in the west, said in a recent letter i "After a thorough experience in ad vertising' to reach the trade In the vi cinity of Omaha, we have come to the conclusion that the best returns come from The Twentieth Century Farmer. We have decided to drop our outside advertising and make a year's contract with you for space. We have had big sales in the vicinity of Omaha, but also have inquiries from Maine to Texas and recently sold quite a bill of goods, through a Twentieth Century ad. to a party in Kentucky."
