A WARDED the First Premium for Mowing and the 
second for Reaping, at the N. Y. State Fair, in the great

highest award at the Vermont and Michigan State Fairs, 
for the best Reaping and Mowing Machine. 
The true merit of this Machine has giveu it a great tri¬

rials, communications. &c„ are of the hiehest order. It 
must obtain a wide circulation.— Louisville Journal.

entiously, as pure, good, interesting, aud useful — calcula¬

of Farmers, stock growers, and ail who are interested in 
i fe obiects.— Detroit Free Press.

who may aid in augmenting the circulation and usefulness of the paper. Former agents 
and friends are aware that ho was the first agricultural publisher who offored prizes for

literature and the daily news, it is most, ably and admira¬ 
bly sustained—is an honor to the newspaper family, as 
well as to its editor and proprietor.— Mich. Chris. Herald.

Address D. D. T. MOORE, 
November 20, 1852. Rochester, N. Y, 
Moore’s Rural New-Yorker is a capital paper. It is 
published at Rochester, one of the most beautiful cities in 
the country, is printed well, is judicious in its extracts and 
subjects for editorials, and opens rich, like a honey comb, 
-having sweets in every cell.—Aeto England Farmer. 
Moore’s Rural New-Yorker is one of onr exchanges, 
winch we always open with pleasure. It is free from poli¬ 
tics and party, and always comes to hand filled with a 
choice variety of well written, and well selected matter — 
Hew York Observer. 
We think it a model paper for the farmer’s family, and 
of a kind much more likely to'be patronized, than those 
purely agricultural. If we were to start a periodical again 
it Avould be in imitation of the Rural New-Yorker.-^ Am. 
Agriculturist. 
We were disappointed in the Rural, for we did not ex¬ 
pect to see more than an ordinarily good paper,_but it is 
superlatively good. It needs no “puffing” from us or 
any one else.— Literary Journal.
