Describes how Cyrus Curtis bought Country Gentleman magazine in 1911 and it became "the dominant farm publication of the 1920s." The magazine "took the nineteenth-century symbol of the yeoman farmer and recast it in terms of consumption. In doing so, it created an idealistic image of a new class of consumers, an image that urban advertisers easily understood and willingly bought." CG had 2.4 million subscribers when it was sold to Farm Journal and Town Journal in 1955.
