and inventions Of the day, the most import
ant are those which contribute to the saving
of labor and the protection of health. View
ed in this light the Sewing Machine occupies
prominent position, not only from its hu-
manitarian characteristics, but from its adap-
tation to all classes. In the drawing-rooms
of the rich it is an ornament and pastine,
while to those in humber circumstances it is
a fruitful resource, faithful friend and BEN
efactor. The men who have been instrumen-
tai in giving to the world the benefits of the
Sewing Machine, have accomplished a noble
work, and among their number GROVER Il
BAKER are entitled to special distinction.
These gentlemen are the patentees of what
are known as the ''Elastic Stitch, and the
'Lock Stitch machines. The Grover &
Baker Elastic Stitch Machine is prefera-
bic to any other, for the reason that it is more
simple in its construction, more efficient, more
easily operated, and less liable to get out of
order We have been at some pains to speak
advisedly ON this matter, and have no hesita-
ton in pronouncing it ineomparably superior
for domestic purposes to any other instru-
ment. Wa are sustained in this high esti
mate. Wherever these machines have been
exhibited in competition with others, botE in
Europe and America, they have elected the
same eucomiums. The proprietors have la
bored to incorporate in their magnificent in
vention the highest merits of which the Sew
ing Machine is susceptible, and their efforts
have been crowned with success Philadel-

STILL ANOTHER EXTRA NuMBER- The
american Agrtcultuist for June completes
half of the 25th volume of this sterling jour
nal, and like all its predecessors this year, is
of extra size-the first half of the volume
containing 240 large pages, instead of the
regular 1872 The half volume also contains
about $50 original engravings of pleasing
and instructive character. The publishers
promise that the second half of the volume
shall be at least equally valuable. Nothing
but an immense circulation, running up well
towards 10000, we learn, could enable them
to furnish such an immense amount of useful
reading matter, and so many costly engra-
wings at the maryelously low price of S1.50 a
year. None ofthe s. or $4 magazines excel
the 4gricuEt,aist in costly and carefully pre-
pared matter, useful to all classes of persons
The June number, of which an advance copy
is before us, is replete with information. A
splendid engraving OF the First Proof Sheet
graces the title page. The Calendar embra-
ces many practical hints about the work for
the month. The Basket contains over a
hundred condensed articles on a multitude of
topics. The various swindlers preying upon
the country are shownHp, as usual, with an
unsparing pen. The '9Walks and Talks upon
the Farm" are full Of practical information
from the daily life on|a farm of 800 acres.
The Farm, Garden, Household, and Children
and Youths Department, are also full of
practical information, illustrated by engra-
wings. Every number of the 4gricultspist
