A man in Michigan is selling lots of
Prickly Comfrey to certain farmers. Do
Rural readers need to be informed that
thugh the plant is hardy; though it
will yield heavily, and may be cut twice
in good soil; though according to analyses
it is nutritous—stock will not
eat it unless starved? We have rasied
Comfrey for ten years and have yet to
find an animal that cares for it.

Dear Sir:

I am about completing
my annual Ag. Report
for 1885. I have, among
my papers, your "Bulletin, No. 5."
"The [?] of Indian Co[?].". This
will be valuable to me in my
Report. Have you the full
file of your Bulletin for 1885?
If so I would like to use all of
them. Can you furnish me
with them?

Truly
Robt. W. Furnas

Send Bulletins I, II, III, IV, & V.
on March 13, 1886.
