_Illustrated, cloth, 12mo, $2.00 net_ When Professor Bailey's "Horticulturist's Rule Book" was published nearly twenty-five years ago, the volume became a standard agricultural work running through sixteen editions. Taking this book as a basis the author has now made a wholly new book, extending it to cover the field of general farming, stock-raising, dairying, poultry-rearing, horticulture, gardening, forestry, and the like. It is essentially a small cyclopedia Of ready rules and references packed full from coyer to cover of condensed, meaty information and precepts on almost every leading subject connected with country life.

BAILEY Director of the New York State College of Agriculture at Cornell University _Four Volumes. Each, cloth, 12mo. Uniform binding, attractively boxed. $5.00 net per set; carriage extra. Each volume also sold separately._ In this set are included three of Professor Bailey's most popular books as well as a hitherto unpublished one,--"The Country-Life Movement." The long and persistent demand for a uniform edition of these little classics is answered with the publication of this attractive series. The Country-Life Movement _Cloth, 12mo, 220 pages, $1.25 net; by mail, $1.34_ This hitherto unpublished volume deals with the present movement for the redirection of rural civilization, discussing the real country-life problem as distinguished from the city problem, known as the back-to-the-land movement. The Outlook to Nature (New and Revised Edition) _Cloth, 12mo, 195 pages, $1.25 net; by mail, $1.34_ In this alive and bracing book, full of suggestion and encouragement, Professor Bailey argues the importance of contact with nature, a sympathetic attitude toward which "means greater efficiency, hopefulness, and repose." The State and the Farmer (New Edition) _Cloth, 12mo, $1.25 net; by mail, $1.34_ It is the relation of the farmer to the government that Professor Bailey here discusses in its varying aspects. He deals specifically with the change in agricultural methods, in the shifting of the geographical centers of farming in the United States, and in the growth of agricultural institutions. The Nature Study Idea (New Edition) _Cloth, 12mo, $1.25 net; by mail, $1.34_ "It would be well," the critic of _The Tribune Farmer_ once wrote, "if 'The Nature Study Idea' were in the hands of every person who favors nature study in the public schools, of every one who is opposed to it, and, most important, of every one who teaches it or thinks he does." It has been Professor Bailey's purpose to interpret the new school movement to put the young into relation and sympathy with nature,--a purpose which he has admirably accomplished.
