"The New Genesec Farmer" has passed
through the first year of its publication with
very hattering success, Notwithstanding the op-
posing influences which it has had to encoun-
ter; and while the publishers express their
gratitude for the assistance and support they
have thus far received. they would now with
renewed confidence, appeal to the friends of
Agriculture for aid in behalf of the Second
Volume. The successful re-estahlishment of
the GENESEE FARMER in its own Nat,ce
Soil and at its economical price, is source of
much qualification 10 the friends of improve

fishers hatter themselves that their efforts are
not unappreclated, and will not long be unre-
waroled.
1t is now fairly proved that the New Gene
see Farmer" can be sustained. at aprice 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 comparison
with any paper of the kind ntlle 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 Genesce
Farmer has received during the past year orr
ginaL 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 it becomes better known and
more generally circulated.
The proprietors are determined to spare-n"

The aim and object Of the New Grnesee
Farmer, is to please and benefit all OF ITS rea'
ders, and advance the Interests OF Agriculture

nity. Many of its present readers have ex-
pressed the high degree of satisfaction they
have derived from its pages; and we hope, all
of them are so well pleased with 1t that ihcy |
will not only renew their own subscriptions
promptly, bnt induce their neighb0rs to SUD-
scribe ALSO. There are thousands OF farmers
to be found, who have never seen the New
Genesee Farmer; and if it was shown them,
and its character explained, they would readily
subscribe. We conceive this to be a DUTY
which the readers Of the paper owe to Their
ncighburs, and to their country, as well MS 10
u.s. Let this duty be done promptly, and onr
means of usefulness will be greatly extended.
and the salulary influence Of the paper will
soon be manifest throughout the Agricultural
community. :,
The friends Of Agricultural Societics should
csnecially encourage this paper; for, unless
farmers READ on the Sujcct 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
he sustained at this low price, without very
large subscription list; and as il will not afford
the expense Of employing travelling Agents,
we must rely on the voluntary efforts oil the
friends of the cause, to obtain subscribers. ~

greatly indebted, and we respectfully solicit
continuance of their patriotic assistance.
