The New Genesee Farmer" has passet
through the first year of its publication witt
very fiatterng success, Notwithstanding the op
posing influences which it has had to cncoun
ter; and while the publishers express theil
gratitude for the assistance and support they
have thus far received. they would now with
renewed confidence, appeal to the friends o
Agriculture for aid in behalf of the Second
Volume. The successful re-estab!ishment ol
the GENESEE FARMER in its own Nat,re
Soa, and at its economical price, is n source Of
much qualification to the friends of improve.
ment in Western New York; and the pub
fishers fatter themselves that their efforts are
not unappreciated, und will not long be unrc.
warded.
1t is now fairly proved that the cNew Gene.
see Farmer" can be sustained, at price which
places it within the reach Of all and the repu.
tation which it has already obtained for talent
and usefulness, will not suffer by a comparison
with any paper of the kind the Union. Every
successive Number that has been issued has
shown an increase Of talent and additional cor
respondents. Besides containing the most
useful and spirited articles selected from other
Agricultural publications, the New Genesec
Farmer has received during the past yesr orr
ginat contributions from more than SEVENTY
WRITER'S, most Of whom are well known
PRACTICAL FARMERS. This correspon.
dence will continue to increase, and, with our
able editorial assistance, we can confidently
assure the readers Of the paper, that it will con-
tlnue TO increase in interest and usefulness, in
proportion as il becomes better known and
more generally circulated.
The proprietors are determined to spare no
reasonable pains or expense in making the
New Genesee Farmer worthy of liberal sup
port. Several important Improvements will |
be made in the next Volume among which |
are the following Each number will contain |
items of English and other news, particularly !
relating to the crops and the markers; such az

and with handsome engraved heading,
(which is in state ofpreparation,) the appear
ance of the sheet will be much improved. The
Farmer will be issued regularly on the first OF
each m nth. and mailed with great despatch.
A competent and careful clerk is employed to
enter the names Of subscribers, aud keep the
accounts, so that we hope to avoid all inaccu-
racies or cause OF complaints.
The aim and object of the New Geneseei
Farmer, is to please and benefit all OF its rea' |
ders, and advance the interests OF Agriculture
and Horticulture-the best interests OF commu- !
nifty. Many of its present readers have ex-
pressed the high degree of satisfaction they
have derived from It's pnges; and we nope, all
Of them are so well pleased with 1t that ihey
will not only renew their own subscriptions
promptly, but induce their neighdors to sub
scribe ALSO. There are thousands Of farmers
to be found, who have never seen the New
Genesee Farmer; and if il was shown them,
and its character explained, they would readily
subscribe We conceive this to be DUTY
which the readers of the paper owe TO their
neighbors, and to their country, as well as to
u.s. Let this duty be done promptly, and our
means of usefulness will be greatly extended.
and the salutary influence OF the paper VIII
soon be manifest throug hout the Agricultural
community. :,
The friends of Agricultural Societies should
especially encourage this paper; for, unless
farmers READ on the subject, and get their minds
interested in their profession, they will not act
efficiently for its advancement. The Societies
formed last year in Western New York, and
their fine exhibitions, have already gwen new
impulse TO the cause in this section OF country;
and it is confidently expected that much more
will be done the coming season.
1t will readily be seen that the paper cannot
be sustained at this low price, without very
arge subscription list; and as ii will not a'io'd
1.-The expense of employing travelling Agen!s,
we must rely on the voluntary efforts OF the the
friends of the cause, to obtain Subscribers. IO
POST MASTERS especially, we are already
greatly indebted, and we respectfully solicit
continuance of their patriotic assistance.
Post Masters have right to remit money
fiom subscribers 10 publishers Of papers free OF

hand them their names, with the money, and
request them to forward the same.
Agents and Post Masters are particularly re-
ouested to inform u.s. as earlyas possible, what
number of papers are likely to be wanted ut
their offices. so that we may calculate how large
an addition will be required.
NorE.-All papers ordered, are charged to
the persons ordering them; and the money re-
ceived is placed to their credit. Au subsertp'
tiops arc discontinued at the end Of the year, un
