Original September 5, 1895 issue of The National Stockman and Farmer (Vol. XIX, No. 21, Central Edition), the weekly agricultural and livestock newspaper of Axtell, Rush & Co., with Pittsburgh, Pa., Buffalo, N.Y. and Chicago, Ill. on the masthead. The masthead calls it a 24-page issue. About 11.1 x 15.2 inches. Condition: toned newsprint with edge chips and small tears, a soft horizontal fold, and a small pink paper label with handwriting affixed across the masthead.

Front page editorials include Range Competition, Wheat Still Lower, Plenty of Apples, Hay Trade Convention, Choosing a Life Work, Liberal Cattle Feeding, and City Milk Legislation on a new Minneapolis milk-inspection ordinance, all under the decorative engraved farm-scene masthead.

Page 22 carries a Veterinary Column of reader questions on horses, cows and a dog, a notice on rail rates to the G.A.R. National Encampment at Louisville, and long Fair Dates listings for the 1895 season: state fairs and expositions plus county and local fairs for Pennsylvania, Ohio, New York and Indiana, with town and dates for each, useful for local history and genealogy.

An original period issue, not a reprint.
