The Publishers of American Agricul- 
turist and Hearth and Home take pleas- 
ure in presenting their new general 
Premium List for 1874. The Premiums 
which they have offered in past years 
have engaged the attention of a very 
large number of persons of all ages and 
both sexes. Many thousands have se- 
cured Premiums, and very many of these, 
who at first had small hopes of success, 
have been themselves astonished at the 
ease with which they have raised large 
clubs and secured valuable Premiums. 
Here is pleasant and profitable work 
for all. 
Boys and Girls, 
Young Men and Maidens 
Middle-aged Men and Women 
Farmers, 
Mechanics 
Merchants, 
Professional Men 
Anybody, 
Anywhere 
who wishes to do good and make 
money, can do both by going to 
work as here invited by the publishers 
of these two most valuable journals, 
American Agriculturist and Hearth 
and Home. You need only to show 
specimens of the papers, promise the 
beautiful Chromos, which are now ready 
for delivery, according to the publishers' 
offer, and forward your subscriptions. 
There is no danffer of failure in the enterprise if 
you go into it with spirit. Tou may succeed in 
raising a club much larger than 
you had at first calculated upon; 
and even shoul.1 you secure fewer 
subscribers than at first hoped lor, 
the Premiums are so many and so 
various that you could not fail to 
be suited with some good thing 
on the list. 
Pei'sous of all classes have 
engaged successfully in the work, 
and very many have materially 
increased their income, 
and that too without encroaching 
upon their ordinary working hours 
and with but little trouble 
to themselves. The articles 
offered as Premiums are wortli 
the regular price which is set 
against thein. They are new 
and giHtd. They have almost 
universally pleased and satisfied 
the recipient. Yon can obtain 
one or more of them. 
t^f- TRY IT. .jgj 
The American Agriculturist is 
everywhere known and approved. 
Hearth and Home issued every 
week, with the Best Original Sto- 
ries, contributions on Live Topics, 
a capital Household Department, 
and a most interesting Department 
for Children and Youth, should 
be in every home in America. The 
papers are entirely different. Taken 
together, they supply more good 
reading than can be found in fifty 
books costing one Dollar each. 
Premium Clubs can be made up 
of subscribers to either paper, or 
partly of one and partly of the 
other, as noted over the Table. 
Wc call especial attention 
to the last column of figures, 
showing the small number of 
names required where both 
papers are taken, at the re- 
duced price of $4 a year. 
You, Reader, can get 
a Premium. IK V IX. 
Explanatory Notes. 
N.B. 
Read and carefully 
Note the (<• Slowing Items: 
(a) All subscribers sent by oue person 
count, though from one or a dozen 
different Poet-offices. But.... (ft) Tell 
us with each name or list of names 
sent, that it is for a premium 
(c) Send Uie names as fast as obtained, 
that the subscribers may begin to re- 
ceive the paper at once. You can have 
any time, from now until July 1st, to 
fill up your list — (d) Send the exact 
money with each list of names, so that 
there may be no confusion of money 
accounts (e) Old and new sub- 
scribers all count in premium clubs, 
but a portion, at least, should be new 
names; it is partly to get these that 
wc offer premiums to canvassers 
(/) Specimen Numbers, etc., will 
be supplied free as needed by 
canvassers, but they should be need 
carefully and economically, and where 
they will tell — (f) Remit money in 
Checks on New York Banks or Bank- 
ers, payable to order of Orange -Tndd 
Company, or send Post-office Money 
Orders. If neither of these is obtain- 
able. Register Money Letters, affixing 
stamps both for the postage and re- 
gistry; pnt in the money and seal the 
letter in the presence of the Post- 
master, and take his receipt for it. 
Money sent in any of the above ways 
le at our risk; otherwise it is not.
