ow For 
DECEMBER. 
A BetteB* Opportunity was 
never Ottered to Secure .**p!en= 
did Premiums, in Articles of 
threat Value and Usefulness, 
WITHOUT MONEY. 
December is the Best Month of all the 
year for making up Premium Clubs. 
Begin the work at once, and you will 
obtain a Holiday Gift worth having. 
Over Ten Thousand other people 
hare done this with great satisfaction, and 
You may easily do the same. 
Cultivators, 
Ministers, 
Teachers, 
Ladies, 
Mechanics, 
Merchants, 
Lawyers, 
Children, 
here is an excellent cliagicc to do a capital 
thing' for yourselves, and for ethers also We 
publish two first-rate Journals — beautiful, valuable, 
lull of good, useful, interesting reading matter, with 
which we shall also give at least $30,000 in fine 
Engravings ever}' year. These Journals are : 
American Agriculturist, monthly, with 44 pages in 
each number, and Hearth and Home, weekly, with 
'M or 24 large pages iu each number They 
will please and benefit anybody who reads them 
many times more than their cost But we can- 
not go all over the country to show them — nor can 
we afford to send traveling agents everywhere, 
while we furnish the papers at se low a price 
But we have procured an abundant supply of first- 
rate articles— desirable either for one's own use, or 
for sale. They are all of the best quality. 
By large wholesale cash purchases, and the spe- 
cial favor of the manufacturers, we get these 
articles so that we can offer them free to all our 
friends who will take the little trouble 
required to show the journals, explain 
their merits, and collect and forward the 
subscriptions. (See "Explanatory Notes" 
below.) It is easy to do this. Jry it. 
About Ten Thousand Persons 
have already received these premiums with 
great satisfaction. One or two subscribers 
a day, for a month, will secure the free re- 
ceipt of a very large and valuable premium, 
or several smaller but valuable ones 
Many persons canvass all the time, 
as a business, and sell the premium articles 
received, and thus make large wages. Some 
Ladies, now canvassing, have each cleared 
from $500 to $3,000 a year. Many 
others have cleared $50 to SS00, by devot- 
ing but little time to it. Many Clergy- 
men have collected names among their 
parishioners, and secured the Cyclopedia, 
Meledoons, Sewing Machines, etc., etc., in 
a brief time. Many Boys and Girls have 
secured the Great Dictionary, etc., etc. 
This has all been done with only one 
paper. As we now include both papers 
in the list, the canvasser can use both. 
One or more clubs can be raised at every 
Post-Offlce. There are plenty of people 
who ought to take the papers, and will 
take them, if the papers are shown Ihem 
and they are informed of their value 
YOU, RKADER, may just as well 
attend to this at your post-office, as any 
one else, and get the premium. Try it. 
A little perseverance will accomplish it. 
Explanatory IVotes, 
Read and carefully \ T otc 
tlie following Items : (a) All subscribers 
sent by one person count, though from one or a 
dozen different Post-offices. But (b) Tell us 
with each name or list of names sent, that it 
is for a premium (c) Send the names as fast 
as obtained, that the subscribers may begin to 
receive the paper at once. You can have any 
time, from one to six months, to fill up your 
list (d) Send the exact money with each 
list of names, so that there may be no con- 
fusion of money accounts (e) Old and new 
subscribers all count in premium clubs, hut a 
portion, at least, should be new names; it is 
partly to get these that wo offer premiums to 
canvassers (/) Specimen Numbers, Cards, 
and Show-bills, will be supplied free as 
needed by canvassers, but they should be used 
carefully and economically, as they are very 
costly (g) Remit money in Checks on Slew- 
York Banks or Bankers, payable to order of 
Orange Judd & Co., or send Post-office Money 
Orders. If neither of these is obtainable, 
Register Money Letters, affixing stamps both 
for tho postage and registry ; put in the money 
and seat the letter in the prcsenco of the Post- 
master, aud take his receipt for it. Money 
sent in any of tho above' ways is at onr risk. 
[In the following table is given the price of each article, aud the 
number of subscribers required to get it free, at the regular rates, $1.50 
and $3.00 a year, for the two papers ; also at the club rates of $1 and $3.50.] 
N. B.— In all Premium Clubs for either paper, TWO copies of 
American Agriculturist at £1.50 each, and ONE coj/y of Hearth and 
Eome at $3.00, will count exactly the same. So also two copies of 
American Agriculturist at $1 each, and one copy of Hearth and 
Home at $3.50, will count exactly the same. In this way Premium 
Clubs can b* ,.■«*. vp from the right-hand, or from the left-hand 
columns belinc, of imrtly of both, only excepting Premium No. 30.
