Our General Premium List. 
We offer premiums to our present subscribers in reward for work done in getting up clubs of subscriptions. We do this because we are -able to give club-raisers 
more value in this way than in any other. We can do this because we get the goods at wholesale for this purpose, we offer no cheap goods, we guarantee every article 
to give satisfaction. If not it may be returned at our expense, and we will satisfy every demand. Names for club need not be sent all at once. Send them as you get 
them, and call for premium when the proper number have been sent. 
It is going to be easy work to get subscriptions for The Rural New-Yorker this year. Every man, and especially every woman, will desire the handsome 
climbing rose Ruby Queen. See illustration on first page. We have reserved the whole supply for subscribers. Club-raisers may make the application for them for 
subscribers when sending their orders. There is no charge. We send them postpaid as long as the supply lasts.
