The above*is strong, uhsoltclted, and unexpected TESTIMONY, FROM HIGH AUTHORITY. HaNY OTHER JOUR* SALS HAVE PPOKKN ALMOST AS STRONGLY. Among ths*9 are the H. Y.

Bach volume also contains hundreds of beau tiful and instructive EN3BAVINGS, manyof them large. E-re.y line of the Agriculturist is prepared by thorough going, intelligent vracticalwonKUsa men and wombn, WHO KNOW WHAT tKET TALK AND ABOUT. Each number contains 39 large double-qaarto piges, beauti folly printedon clear white calendared paper, and every yearly volume has 3,000 or 4,000 useful articles and items, which no one, whatever hii or har occupation of location,can read without getting some hints, each worth more than $l. (The great circulation, nearly 100* 000, enables the Publisher to still furnish the paper at the old piice of only $1 a year.) CHILDREN want it, because it contains so many things to both please and instruct them. It has good Pictures, Parties, Stories, etc-, which teach good mo rale. good manners, kindness of heart, and instructs the mind. Thousands of parents have written that this department is alone worth many times the cost of the paper. HOUSE-KEEPERS want the Agriculturist,' beca use it has a desartment on Houeewosk, which wilt give them much re:lly useful informations this Is not a mere re-hash of stale recipes, but a thoroughly prepared series of talks about in-door affairs, which will help to lighten and facilitate woman’s work, aid in seeming in door labor-saving implements, and make one’s work less toilsome, by telling the how and why of this and that household operation. MECHANICS want this jiuraal for the general practical information it affords, and if they have a square rod of ground for a Garden, for a Vine, or a Tree, it will help them make the best possible use of that ground. MERCHANTS AND PROFESSIONAL MEN want it for the same reasons as Mechanics, FRUIT- GROWERS want it for its great amount of reliable information about different fruits, their value, mode of culture, preservation, etc. STOCK-RAISERS want the American Agricul turist for Us abundant information on all that pertains to the selection, breeding, profitable raising, diseases, and marketing of all kinds of Domestic Animals, Horses* Cattle, Sheep, Swine, Poultry, etc. FARMERS want the Agriculturist, for, as its name indicates, it was originally started to promote their interests, though it has been doubled in size, to embrace the entire departments of In-door and Out-door life. Nowhere else can there be found so much really useful, common-sense information about all that per tains to the FARM WORK. ~- THE CALENDAR of the Agriculturist, given the first of each month, tells what is to be done in that month on lhe Farm, in the Orchard, and Garden, etc. This is very valuable, and, greatly helps to a systematic arrangement of one’s labors. HUMBUGS don't want It. Every person who has heen humbngged by swindlers shonld taka the AGtRI. CULTURIBT.
