To Agricultural and Horticultural Societies. 



WE would particularly invite the attention of those 

 Societies, who are about, to make up their 

 Premium Lists, to our large collection of Agricultural 

 Books, which are peculiarly adapted for Premiums. 



The awarding of Agricultural Books in the. place 

 of small, Money Premiums has been extensively adopted 

 and has given the highest satisfaction. 



AD VANTAGES OF THIS PLAN. 

 It promotes the dissemination ol much needkd in- 

 formation among Farmers. 



It combines the Advantages of a Diploma with a 

 Premium of Intrinsic Value. 



It substitutes a P ermanent and Expressive Token of 

 Honor for the pittance which is frequently humiliating 

 to the recipient. 



It avoids the fostering of a mercenary spirit among 

 Competitor^ ttll( ] better comports with the dignity of an 

 Honorable emulation between friends and neighbors. 



We will be hsnpy to furnish to applicants a Cata- 

 logue of our Publications, which we consider most ap- 



propriate for the use of Agriculfu>al Societies (p 

 Premiums, on which a lineral discount will be given.
