ANYBODY. 
The Publishers of the American Agri- 
culturist present their friends and read- 
ers with their Premium List for 1875, 
full of good things. The experience 
of many years has taught them that 
such oiiers as are here made, of very 
large returns for a Tery 
little labor, never fail to be high- 
ly appreciated. 
Now, reader, here is something for 
You. Look over the attractive List of 
Premiums, which you will find in third 
column of this page. There are many 
things among these that you would like to 
possess without having to pay the money 
for them. Here are Pocket Micro- 
scopes, Gold Pens, Revolving Pencils, 
Silver-Plated Ware, Knives and ForJcs, 
Pocket Knives, Beautiful Toys for the 
Children, Melodeons, Pianos, Sewing 
Machines, Knitting Machines, Books, 
etc., etc., etc. You have only to make 
your choice, and tlien take hold of this 
pleasant work of getting a club of sub- 
scribers sufficient to obtain it. More 
than Firteeu Thonsand Men, 
Women, and Children, in almost all sta- 
tions and jiursuits, have successfully 
done this, and at least fifteen thousand 
may do it now. You may as well be 
oiie of the fortunate ones, as anybody 
else. It only needs a little enterprise 
and the will — with the will there will be 
a way. And there can be no better 
time than now. There is room in 
every neighborhood for several premium 
clubs. Everybody ought to have the 
paper ; its plain, practical inf oi-mation 
will put money in most peoi^le's pockets, 
and save multitudes from swindlers, and 
from unprofitable investments of funds 
and time. So while you are aiding to 
push the paper into the people's hands, 
you are engaged in "doing Good as tvell 
as in Making Money." 
The American Agriculturist is one of 
the best papers to canvass for in the 
world. Its many beautiful illustrations, 
its interesting and instructive reading 
matter, its Household and Boys and Girls' 
Departments, its intrinsic value in every 
way, secure hosts of friends wherever it 
is seen and known. Eead five extracts 
as specimens from many hundreds of 
persons who have received our Premiums. 
"Jifne 1,1874. 
"I am very much pleased with the premiums, 
[Dictionary and Gun], and could sell them now at 
a fair price, but can't think of parting with either, 
although I am not much of a hunter. My watch 
that I received over two years ago, is an excellent 
time-keeper. I feel encouraged to do more thau 
ever for the Yl7nV?/?fwm^, if T should live next year." 
" Jims 26, 1874. 
" Premium [Pocket Rifle] received. Thanks. It 
is beautiful." 
"June'SA, 1874. 
"Please accept thanks for Carver and Fork, 
which you sent me as Premium for getting a club 
to Ani^rkan Ar/rieitUjirist. I find them as repre- 
sented — genuine articles." 
"October 27, 1874. 
" I received the Premium [Bracket Saw] on the 
24th. I am very much pleased with it, and will 
send names for the Premium No. 25." 
" October 31, 1874. 
" I desire to acknowledge the receipt by to-day's 
express of your magnificent Premiums, Nos. 2 and 
6 — a spleudid Ice-Pitcher and one dozen Teaspoons 
— and which I have every reason to believe are 
fully equal to your representtition (the best triple- 
plate). With thanks for your promptness, I re- 
main yours truly." 
Now, what has been done by thou- 
sands to their great profit and delight, 
You too may do. TRY IT.
