!, ion magazines in the world. They say it
is so full of good hints about all kinds of
, housework. All | can say is, that We do
have better bread and cake !; and Wife
says, the cake don't cost so much as it
used to. She has learned from the paper
how hundred other house-keepers do
their work. aa d
] Rev. Corey.-Let me say, also, that
Mrs Crane and her daughters have added
good many beautiful but cheap home
made fixtures to their parlor and sitting
rooms, which certainly make their home
more attractive. They told me, the other
day, they got these up from pictures and
descriptions in the Agrtculturist.
Mr.. TRAVIS My salary has not allowed
me to take the paper; thoogh | must
squeeze out enough to do SO this year.
My school boys have brought me some
copies to look at, the past year or two,
and | fnd the Boys aud Girls depart
ment of the Agriculturist the best thing
| ever saw. It's full of items, ETC., that
amuse and at the same time instruct the
children. Why, / could pick out the
4 boys and girls in my school whose parents
take the AgritultUrist, just by hearing
them talk-they- are so full of new and
good things they have learned from the
paper. The paper has many beautiful
engravings.
Req. Corey.-As small as my salary, l
would have the paper if it cost S5 year,
instead ofSl so. The fast is, it helps out
my salary. My little garden plot at the
parsonage has yielded US almost all our
table vegetables, besides many beautiful
flowers. The Agriculturist has been my
constant guide. I knew but little of gar
dening; but this paper is so full of infor-
nation about the best things to plant and
sow, when TO plant, and how to cultivate
all told in so plain and practical way,
by men who seem to talk from their own
experience, that know just what to do,
and how to do it we'll. The high moral
tone of the paper, its common sense, the
care it takes of all parts of the Farm, the
J: Garden, the Greha:d-the Household
work, and the Children as we'll, with its
hundreds of beautiful and instructive
ugravings-make it the most valuable
4 periodical have ever seen. | heartily
wish every one of my parishiouers would
take it for himself and family. 1t would
awaken thought and enterprise, give in
terest to the town and neighborhood talk,
stimnlata i,rr.vronuus, :-.-oanoa new
and profitable crops, animals and imple-
ments, and add to our wealth. Take my
advice, and all of you try the paper
year. The $3.50 it costs, is only three
cents week, and it is worth that any
way. Why the large and beautiful engrav-
ings are worth many times that.
Mr.. Davis L took the the Genesee
Farmer last year, and as that has stop
ped, thought would take new paper.
Mr.. Smth.-The "Genesee Farmer"
was not really stopped. The Publishers
of the Ayriculturist invited Mr.. Harris
to join the Farmer to the Agriculturist,
and put his whole force into the latter
paper. They paid him large price for
his Office, and moved it with everything
connected with it 10 their Office. So the
AgricuIturist is really two papers joined
into one, and of course better. | think
we had better GO with Mr. Harris to the
! Agricu7turist, that has been published
for Is years, and has hundred thousand
circulation, which, as Mr.. Knox has told
US, supplies the means and facilities for
giving us great deal more for the same
money. Mr.. Harris carries on his large
farm, and in his "Walks and Talks on
the Farm" and other things he writes
for the Agriculturist, he tells US great
deal about all kinds of farm work.
Mr. Dayis.-Put me down for the Ag-
riculturist a
Mr. Smith Il am glad to do So I
know you will like it. The January num-
ber, which bas just come to hand, is alone
worth the cost of year. See here,
/ (sbowing it, there are 40 pages, twice as
large as the magazine pages, and there
are thirty f0e engravings in it, two of
them full page size, and see how beautiful! /!
! Why, I'll give any man who takes the
papers year, dollar and half 10 goods
out of my store, if he saws at the end of a
year he hiss not got many times his moneys
worth.
| Mr.. ButIer.-Put me 10 your club.
/ Mr.. Greene.-And me too.
Mr.. Bro1n.-And me.
/ Mr.. Sm1h.-I have no interest in the
matter, except to do-a good thing for the
place. You can join our club, or any
one who desires can get the Agricultur
ist for all of 1866 Volume 25), by simply
enclosing $3.50, with his name and post
Office address, and sending it to ORANGE
