Farm & Fireside was a semi-monthly national farming magazine that was established in 1877 and was published until 1939. It was based in Springfield, Ohio.[1]

It was the original magazine for what eventually became the Crowell-Collier Publishing Company. It was renamed The Country Home in an attempt to compete with Better Homes and Gardens, with the issue of February 1930. The reasons behind the name change were given in the January 1930 issue. It stated that modern-day farmers are taking on a wider range of interests to improve their quality of life. Hence, they want more articles on household tips and entertainment.
