C^^ Ex^fry article njfered is new and of the very best 
'iiain'fw^lure, No charge i* made for packing or boxing 
nay of the nrticlcs in this Premium List. The forty- 
three Prcmtums. Nos. 1, 3? 69 and from 29 0> 32, 
and from 40 tj 75 incliisme^ wUi each be dtlivered 
FREE of all charges, by mail or express, to the Post- 
Office or cj:press office nearest recipient, to any place in 
the United States or Territories, excepting those reached 
ualy by the Overland Mail. — The other articles cost the 
recipient only the freight offer leaving the manufactory 
of each, by any conveyance that may be specified. 
(^^By "WhoJesale piircliai.fcS, by advertising arrange- 
ments. etc., wsc;'n pay mwcftj^yre in premiums tlma in 
cash. Evtiy #iicle is given at '.he regular price whicls 
it would cost any pmchaser. 
Saeli article oSereil is for a deilnitfc number of 
tubscribei's ; every one Ihus knows just what is re- 
quired. A premiuin is iiol dependent upon favorili^m, 
or upon what souie u.-ikuown person elsewliere is doing. 
Over Eight Tlionsaud Persons have liith- 
er'.o receivetl our iireiiiiurns witii great saiisfactioii ; we • 
Ii:tve n(»t lieard of one in a thoiisan-! whohas not been 
highly pleased. It i? a good work. Th/? tens of Ihou- 
«aniis of persons persuaded by our canvassers to lake 
"l read the paper- have been Denefiied by so '.icing. 
JTIany f lergyineu are receiving tlie CyclopcJia, 
Sewing Mactiines, iMelodeoiis, etc., as premiums. Some 
m;ikc up llie subscription lists themselves, wiih the freely 
rcniicred aid of their congregations. Others receive the 
ariirles from llicir Parishioners who unite their efforts 
and make up a premium club for the paper. 
\^^ We take so much pains to procure only good 
articles in all cases, that any one securing anything from 
our premium list, saves the risfc usually run of getting 
poor or indi^^fferent goods, when buying of unknown or 
irrcsponsi'jlf parties. Every thing tve send out as a 
premium is guaranteed to be the best nf its kind and price. 
Our preiiiiiiiiiN are standard articles, and enough 
can be obtained to stipply all calls for premiums for six 
months. Every I'aiivasser can take abundant time, but 
As fast as subscriptions are obtained, send them 
along, tliat the subscribers may begin to receive the 
paper; and when all the names that can be obtained are 
forwarileO, select the premium, and it will be promptly 
furiHsiiei.!. To save mistakes and keeping accounts, send 
Willi each list of names, the exact subscription money 
(in Post Oflice money orders, drafts or checks on N. Y. 
City;or, if these can not be had, registered money letters.) 
^^ Every name designed for a premium list must 
be so markrd when sent in. 
NOW is tlie best time to begin to raise a club, as every 
new subscriber for 1S67, received in November, gets the 
December numher of this year /rec, as noted elsewhere. 
Old, and new subscribers count in premium lists, 
but a part should bo new names, for it is to obtain 
such that the premiums are in part oiTereil. Papers to Pre- 
mium clubs ncc'l not all goto one Post Office. Of course 
tiie extra copy, usually olTere.l to ciubs of ten or twen- 
ty, will not be furnished when a premium is called for. 
Specimen XumberN of the Agriculturist, Cards, 
and Showbills, as maybe needed, willbe supplied to Can- 
vassers. These sliould be used carefully and ecnnomi- 
cally, as each extra copy of the paper with postage (2c.), 
which must be pre-paid, costs about 12 cents. 
For Full Description of the several premiums 
see Octol>er Agricaltnrist, pages 349 to 3o'J, or apply for 
a Descriptive List, whicji will be furnisheJ /r«f. We 
have room here for only the foiluwing : 
i\o. 14— Clotlies-Wriuaiug: ilfiachiiie. 
— A very useful, time-saving, strength-saving, clothes- 
saving implement, that should be in every family. The 
wringing of clothes by hand, is hard upon Ihe h;inds, 
arms and chest, and the twisting stretches and breaks 
the fibres with lever power. Wiih the Wringing Jla- 
chine, llie garments are passed between tu o elastic roll- 
ers which press the water out better than hand wringing, 
and with no wrenching of IJie fibres. It is done as fast as 
the left hand can pickup the garments, while the right 
hand tarns tiie crank. Il is so easily done that a child of 10 
or 12 years can quickly wring out a tub-full of clothes, 
dropping them from the machine set upon the side of 
the waf^h-tnb directly into a clothes basket, ready to hang 
out. We offer liie family size, "Universal Wringer," 
provided with Cogs wliicli make thp rollers turn together, 
and wliich we consider essential to prevent injury to tlie 
fabrics, loosening of the rubber, etc. We used a single 
one of these Wringers, one of the first mjike. several 
years without any repairs, and with the greatest satisfac- 
tion.— It weighs only 15 lbs., and can l>e readily carried 
by hand, or sent by express, or iVeight, to any part of 
the country, ready to be set upon any fmm of tub. and 
used at once. We have given over a thousand of these as 
premiums, with almost universal sati^-fatnion. At least 
a thousand families may get one this year as a premium. 
IVos, 40 to -49 — VoliBn&cs of the 
American Agriculturist (Unbound). — These 
amount 10 a large and valuable Library on all matteis 
pertaining to the Farm, Gaiden, and Hon.-ehoUl. and con- 
tain more varied infoimation on these subjects than can 
be obtained in books costiiigthiee limes the money. We 
have stereotype plates from the Sixteenth to the T\\eniy- 
fourlh Volume complete, and will have Vol. 25, soon 
after Dec. 1st. From these plates we print as needed. 
The price of the volumes is $1.60 each, at the office, or 
$1.75 if sent by mail, as they must be post-paid. They are 
put up in clean numbt-rs. with the Index to each volume. 
They are profusely lUusIrated, the Engravings 
used in them having alone cost about Twenty Thousand 
Dollars ! Those obtaining premiums for from one to nine 
volumes, can select any volumes desired, from XVI to 
XXV, inclusive. For ordinary use, the sets of numbers 
unbound will answer quite well. — Many hundreds of 
these volumes are taken every year as premiums. 
^Tos. 50 to 59 — Bound Volmues of 
Agriculturist.— These are the same as Nns. 40 to 49 
abnvc, but aro neatly bound in uniform style, and ro=t 
exViS fov bindirig; und postage. All arc sent post-paid. ^ 
I\os.Oa to 7 A— 4J001> I^llfiRA8eiB^*<. 
—In these premiums, we offer aclioict-of Books, for 
the Farm, Garden, and Iloui^oliold. The per- 
son entiilo 1 lo any one of the premiums 03 to 71, may 
select ;my bot)ks desired from the list below, to Hit! 
amount of the premiums, and the books willbe forward- 
ed, paid through lo ihe nearest Post Office, or Express 
office, as we may find it most convenient to semi them. 
We need not enlarge upon these premiums • every one 
knows the valne of good books. Twenty-five or Fifty 
dollars* worth of l)«oks on snbjrets pertaining to ihe farm 
will give the boys new ideas, .'^et them to thinking and 
observing, and thus enable them to make Ike'r heads 
help their hands. Any good book will, in the end, be of 
far moie value lo a youth, than lo have an cxlia acre of 
land, on coming to maturity. The tliinking, reasoning, 
observing inuu, will certainly make more off from 49 
acres, Itian he would off from .^0 acres without the men- 
tal aliilily wbicli reading will give him. Onr premiums 
will enable nniny a family lo secure a larger or smat'er Li- 
brary. ^^^ This is a good opportunity for the farmers 
of a neighborhood to unite their efforts an I get up an 
Agricultural Library for general use.
