A Greenback well Invested.

commencing their readers 10 invest dollar
|" Greenback in securing tina; very excellent
Journal for the Household (including the
Little Ones,) for the Garden, and for the
Farm. called the Ame' lean Agriculturist.
Many persons were thus led TO subscribe,
and we believe all who diG so have been
much more than satisfied. They have recei-
we'd the 23d Annual Volume OF the -4gricuI-
turist which is full Of good things ,usefu ,prac-
teal, and entertaining and just now the Pub
Usher is sending out to each OF his suoscri
bers applying, present of plant OF one Of
the most remarkable Strawberries that have
ever been brought out. These plants, when
sold by the only other person having them,
90 readily at - cents each. So the Green
back invested last year has certainly paid
well. All We have now to say is, let all 9TH
ers 90 and do likewise. Notwithstanding
the present advance in cost, the Publisher
still offers to take subscribers this month
(September) at 81 year, or from now to the
end of 1865 fifteen months. for Sl.15. And
, still further, he offers one OF the remarkable
Strawberry Plants, sent free and postpaid,
to every new subscriber who encloses j cents
extra for oil cloth, packing, and postage on
the plant. Our advice TO al! is, send the
Dollar Tor the Sl.l5,) and the extra cents
at once TO Orange Judd, Publisher of the
Anicultmist, at Al Park Row, New York
City, and get the paper, etc. You will get a
most beautiful. we'll illustrated, practical pa
per, and the cheapest one in the country, to
say nothing of the extra Straw berry Plant,
etc. TRY it.
