Special Attention is invited to the 
list of choice articles in the Table, and 
to the descriptions following These 
articles are fully worth the money 
value set against each, "which is the 
regular price. Everything in the list 
is new, useful, and first-rate. 
These articles are offered as Premiums 
or Gifts to those persons who take the 
little time and trouble needed to collect 
subscriptions, new and old, for our pa- 
pers. Over 14,000 persons have 
secured one or more of them, and they 
have almost universally given great satis- 
faction to those receiving them. 
They are all just as good as 
money. The assortment is so large, 
that every one will find something need- 
ed. See table and descriptions. 
They may be easily obtained by 
Farmers, 
Gardeners, 
Nurserymen, 
Physicians, 
ministers, 
Teachers, 
Ladies, 
Children, 
Postmasters, 
Merchants, 
Mechanics, 
Lawyers, 
Students, 
Clerks, 
Conductors, 
By ALL. 
Any person who chooses may collect a small 
or large list of subscribers and receive the pre- 
mium. (See articles on page 408.) It is only 
necessary to show copies of the papers, explain 
their value, promise the $5 picture, 
and collect and forward names. 
It has been done largely at Stores, 
Shops, Post-offices, etc., and by 
private individuals. By Co-ope- 
ration, Ministers, Teachers, 
Churches, Sunday and week-day 
Scholars, have obtained Melo- 
deons, Libraries, Dictionaries, 
etc., also Sewing Machines, etc., 
for poor widows and others. 
Many Professional meu have made 
up good premium lists at their 
offices. Clerks in Stores aud Post- 
offices have materially increased 
their salaries thus, while indivi- 
duals in all classes have secured 
good things for themselves or for 
presents to others, all without the 
use of working hours, and at 
no money cost. 
The American Agriculturist is 
everywhere known and approved. 
Hearth and Home is now with- 
out a superior in the world as a 
splendidly illustrated Weekly News- 
paper, for real value, cheapness, 
and adaptability to every home in 
America. The papers are entirely 
different. Taken together, they 
supply over $30,000 worth of 
fine engravings, and 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. 
We 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. 
Yon, Reader, can get 
a Premium. TKY IX.

Read and carefailly 
Note the following i una * : 
(a) All subscribers sent by one person 
count, though from one or a dozen 
different Post-offices. But.... (ft) Tell 
ns with each name or list of names 
sent, that it is for a premium 
(c) Send tlie names as fast as obtained, 
that the subscribers may begin to re- 
ceive the paper at once. You can have 
any time, from one to six months, to 
fill up yonr 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 
we offer premiums to canvassers 
(/) Specimen Numbers, Curds, and 
Show-bills will be supplied free as 
needed by canvassers, but they should 
be used carefully and economically, as 
they arc very costly — (g) Remit 
money in Checks on New York Banks 
or Bankers, payable to order of Orange 
Judd & Co., 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; put in the money and seal the 
letter in the presence of the Post- 
master, and take his receipt for it. 
Money 6ent in any of the above ways 
is at our risk; otherwise it ib not,. 
[In the following table is given the price of each article, and the number of 
subscribers required to get it free, at the regular rates, $1.50 a year for American 
Agriculturist, and $3.00 a, year for Hearth and Home ; also at the club rates of $1 ana 
$2.30: also at the rates of $ i a year for both papers together.] gy Descrip- 
tions of Premiums on next page. 
N. B.— In ail Premium Clubs for either paper, TWO copies of American 
Agriculturist at $1.S0 each, and ONE copy of Hearth and Home at $3.00, wUl 
count exactly the same. So also two copies of American Agriculturist at $1 
each, and one copy of Hearth and Home at $2.50. will count exactly the fame. 
In this way Premium Clubs can be made tip from the 2d and 4th columns, 
or from the 3d and 5th, or wholly from the 6(h column.
