Various periodicals on agricultural arts were published in Turkey towards 
the end of the 19 thcentury. They were issued either by state institutions such as 
the Ministry of Agriculture, the School of Agriculture or by agricultural societies 
or individuals. A number of them were long­lived journals  whereas  the others 
ephemeral. The earliest two periodicals  were the Vasıta­i  Servet  (Means  of
Wealth) and the Ziraat Gazetesi (Newspaper of Agriculture). The journal under
study, the Ziraat ve Sınaat Tercüme­i Fünun Odaları Mecmuası (Journal of the
