Sevral Voices. —We will.
Synith.--And now while you are
about it; I want to make up a club for a
good New . York paper. ,
Mr. .Brownt-AV e can't afford to take
so many 'papers.
Mr._&tith.--You have just seen that
yeti 'cannot afford to stop your home pa
per; let us see - if it will not pay to join
oer club.' Mr. Rich, you have 'taken the
Americcin. Agriculutrist for several years.
Does it:pay 7
Mr. Rich Pay ? Yes, fifty times
over. Why; I, got 'two ten , acre fields
ready to sow to 'wheat, and put in one of
them. ' That night 'my Agricutturist came,'
and I read a simple reedmmondationaboUt
prepariog seed wheat. I called John'atil'
put bushels in soak for the net?
day. -It 'cost 50 cents Tot the materials':
Well, that second field yielded 5 bushels
an acre more than the other-:-7or 50-bush
els extra. and better -wheat too. 'Pretty
good• pay for the $1,50 expeuneu
paper. And. I have got lots' of . other
hints alaiost as profitable. You know I
gor better profits on my , beef, park and
mutton ' than any other, man in the place,
Now this does not come from any direct
hint, like the wheat, but from a good
many suggestions that I have pieked up
in reading the Agriculturist, and from
the course'of reasoning that I have been
led into, by reading in it what others do,
and thiuk, and say. •
Mr. Sruith,—You are another sub
scriber to the Agriculturist, Mr. West;
does it pay ? ,
Mr. Inst.—Pay 7' Yes. You know
what good - cabbage.s and potatoes I had
last season. Why, the 'cabbages were
worth double any others in town, for mar
ket or for home 'use. I had 400 heads,
worth' 5 cents apiece, ;extra; and they
only cost 20 cents extra for seed. My
250 bushels of potatoes . aro - all engaged
for seed' at $1.50 (bushel, when other
kinds bring only 50 cents. oat's s2so'
clear gain, for $l4 extra I paid for seed,
and the $1.50'1 paid for the Agricultur
ist.' It' was thiaugh this paper that I
learned' about' the cabbages and potatoes.
Its editors - are careful; intelligent men,
on the constant lookout for ilaythin.• new
that - is really good; while the paper abOunds
in cautions, against:the poor and unprofit
able. '
Mr. Sazit7t.—What sayyou, M. Tay
lor 7 Does it Pay, to' invest $1.50 in the
Agriculturist :P
Mr. 7'aglor.—Mos. , t, certainly; A hint
in th&paper led ma to look after certain
insects at the proper time, and the result
was, I liad . l:6o . barrels of splendid apples,
which brought me a clean 65 per barrel,
and this you know was better by $l, than
'the average-prices here, or $l6O. Then I
have read so much` about good and ' bad

Rev. arey.—.As-small ps my ealdry, I
would have the , paper if it cost 65 a-year,
instead of 61:50.. The fact is, it helps out
my salary. My little garden plot at the
p4rsonage has yielded , us alinpst all our
table vegetables,, besides many beautiful
flowers. The Agriculturist has bethi my
constant guide., I knew but little of ger:
dening; but this paper is so full of infor
mation abo4 the bast things to plant and
sow,' when - to plant, and how, to cultivate
—all told , in so plain and practical a way,
by men who seem to talk from their own
experience, that,l know jast,what to do,
and how to do it well:. • The high moral
tone of the-paper,-its common sense, the
care it takes of all parts of the. Farm; the:
Orel - ma— Garden, ;the.' Orea-0e household
work, and the Children as well, with its
hundred's of beautiful and instructive
engravings-'—make the most-valuable ,
'periodicalj - hnie ever. seen.:, I baartily,
wish` every one of my_parisbioners would
take lit for himself and family. -It would
awaken thought .and enterprise, give in
terest to the town and neighborhood talk,' ,
citimrehlta I npw
and profitable crops, animals mtid imple
ments, and add to our wealth. Take my,
advice, and all 'of you trr`the paper a
year. The,sl.so it coats, is only three
tents a week,,, and - it is worth that any
way. Why the large and beautiful engrav
ings are worth many times that.

was not really stopped. The Publishers
of the Ayricultu.rist invited Mr: Herris
to join the Farmer to the Agriculturist,
and put his ,whole 'fore° into the latter.
paper. They paid him a large price
his office, and moved it with everything
edirneoted with io their office. So the
Agriculturist is really tWopapers joined
into one, and of course better. I think
we had - better go with -Mr. Harris to the
Agriculturist, that has .been publiShed
fur 25 years,and has a hundred thousand
circulation, Which, as Mr. Knox has told
us, supplies the means and facilities for
giving us 'a great deal more for the'same
money. Mr. Harris carries on his large
farm, and in ibis „€'Wallis and Talks
the Piaui," and other things he writes
for. the` AgriCulturist; he tells ns great
deal about all kipds of farm Work.
Mr Davi4.—Put me down for the Ag

Mr. Smith —I am glad to do so. I
know you will like it, The January num
ber, which has fust come tor hand, is. alone
worth the best of a year. See 'here,
(showing it,) there are 40 pages, twice as
largo as the magazine pages, and there
are thirty- fire engrivings in it, two of
them - full page sii,e;and seelieW beautiful!
Why, I'll give any man who. takes the
papers a year, a dollar and a' halt in. goods
