Farming Uncle has been around since 1967, and since 1977 has had an ISSN# (0272-3417) of which editor/publisher Louis Toro is extremely proud. The bulk of the publication is ads; ads for pen pals, mail order brides, maple syrup, peanuts and candy, free gas, a lottery, the Humane Society, acupuncture, a goat meat production handbook, National Wildlife Federation, the "No Fail 'Power of 9' Program", Electro Bike plans, gardening zines, seed catalogs, newsletters, stamp collecting, real estate, mail art, aloe vera, a miracle product, and lots and lots of ads for Farming Uncle. But wait, there's more! There are mini-rants called Bits & Pieces, some that make sense, some that don't, things clipped from late 1800s and early 1900s publications including illustrations, quotes and motivational quips, and extremely short letters (one or two lines) to the editor. Pervading it all is an absolute obsession with anything pertaining to Native Americans, especially ads for things pertaining to Native Americans.
