THE ILL 



Agents. — We do not appoint any agents — all a 

 voluntary. Any person so disposed, can actasagen 

 in any place. 



BifLAESE TouB CiiUB. — Will not the friends o 

 the Illinois Farmer inquire how many copies o: 

 the Farmer are taken in their respective ofSces, an 

 pass around among those who ought to have thei 

 names added to the list ? Our terms are so low to 

 clubs of ten and twenty that we ought to have one 

 or the other made up at every office in the State, and 

 at every office in Central Illinois, one of twenty or 

 more. Will our friends, and the friends of practical 

 agriculture see to it, and thus lay us under renewed 

 obligations ? 



To Single Subscribers. — You receive the only 

 copy of the Farmer that goes to your post office 

 Can you not send one, two, three or more new sub- 

 scribers, without any trouble ? Try. Sample num- 

 bers, etc., sent free. 



Drafts. — Those remitting us large amounts of 

 money, will please send us drafts on Springfield or 

 Chicago, less they exchange. If you send cash in a 

 letter, be sure that it is well sealed and well directed, 

 to Bailhache & Baker, Springfield, Illinois. 



The Farmer as a Present. — Any of our subscri- 

 bers who wish to make a present of the Illinois 

 Farmer for 1863, can have it at the lowest club rates, 

 when out of the State. For fifty cents you can treat 

 your Eastern friends to a Western Agricultural Pa- 

 per. In no way can you invest that amount to so 

 good advantage to emigration. 



Send Now. — Any person who remits pay for a club 

 of ten or fifteen, or any other number at the specified 

 rates for such clubs, can afterwards add to the clubs, 

 and take advantage of the reduction. Thus a person 

 sending us five subscribers and three dollars, can af- 

 terwards send us three dollars more and receive six 

 copies. 



To The Casual Reader.— This and other num- 

 bers of the Illinois Farmer wiU be sent to many 

 persons who now use it for the first time. Will they 

 not examine it, and if they like it, subscribe for it, 

 and ask their neighbors to subscribe ? Sample num- 

 bers, prospectuses, etc., sent free to all applicants. 

 See terms elsewhere. 



How TO Obtain Subscribers.— The best way is to 

 send for sample numbers. Any young man by can- 

 vassing his neighborhood, can easily make up a club 

 of five, ten or twenty, but no time should be lost in 

 doing so, for your neighbors may send east for their 



'"k*")y go to one or a dozen offices
