TERMS:

TINE AMERICAN AGRICULTURIST is
Il now in the seventh year of its publica-
ton. From its commencement it took high
stand, and has ever since been considered by
the press and all unbiased judges, as the
LEADING PERIODICAL of its class in Am.
erica 1t has large and rapidly increasing
circuls ton throughout the United States, the
Canadas, and other British possessions, the
West Indies, and South America; and we
may fearlessly assert, that it has given more
reliable information on rural subjects, and
been 2erused with greater general satisfac-
ton, than any paper of the kind yet publish
ed.
The Agriculturist treats of every descrip.
ton OF domestic animals and poultry; their
characteristics, breeds, the best and the
worst; their disadvantages; their mode of
breeding, feeding. and rearing; their use
profits and management. 1t treats of all cul.
tvated crops, including fruits. shrubbery. land
flowers; the best seeds, mode of planting,
cultivating. gathering: and preparing for
markets; the general principles of vegetatic
and the laws of vegetables life. 1t describes
the principle ofmechanics as applied to ma
chnery used by farmers and planters; the
best machinery and implements for agricul.
ture. their. uses aud the particular superiority
of some over others. and their adaptedness
for particular purposes, it gives the latest
improvements in those implements which may
have been made,s and suggests others; tell
where they are to be found and the benefits
that will follow from their use. 1t specifies
new objects of cultivation, and how they
may be better prepared for profitable mar.
ket and more general use.
This is the great design and scope of the
Agriculturst and these are the paramount
objects of interest throughout America. No
country can ever enjoy solid prosperity unless
am enlightened system of agriculture is prac,
tised among its people, and this cannot be
done except by the aid of those works which
are written to teach it. Let all aid, then to
spread them broadcast throughout the land
1t is the duty of every good citizen to do this
nothing equal to it canbe done 10 benefit
the country.
