Beckwith 
Sewing Machines 
$12 and $20. 
We lmve offered as a Premium, and also for sale, for 
more than a year past, the Beckwith Sewing 
Machine, which has been fully described in previous 
numbers of this paper. We have already given and sold 
more than one thousand of these machines, and testi¬ 
monials of satisfaction have come from every quarter. 
We still offer the Beckwith Sewing Ma¬ 
chine, Improved, price $12. A new and very 
simple braiding-foot has been made, by which a child can 
sew on braid without the least trouble, following any de¬ 
sired pattern with ease ; also a new arm, spiral spring 
and lever for raising the presser-foot, all of which are 
now set in a position that leaves the needle free to be 
threaded. The joint is much enlarged, and the machine 
is otherwise greatly strengthened and improved. The 
use of the braider-foot alone will be valued more than 
the cost of the machine. 
Each of these machines is put in a neat, compact 
box, with hemmer and guide, oil-can with oil, thread, 
different-sized needles, etc., with full Printed Directions 
for using. On receipt of $12 we will send one of these 
machines to any address, expressage to be paid by the 
purchaser. 
The Machine as a Traninm, 
We will give one of these §13 machines to 
any one who will collect an«l forward eight 
subscribers for Hearth and Home one year at 
S3 each; or sixteen subscribers to American 
Agriculturist for one year, at Si.50 each, ex¬ 
pressage on the machine to be paid by the re¬ 
cipient of it. 
THE BECKWITH PORTABLE 
FAMILY SEWING- MACHINE. 
PRICE $30. 
Enlarged and Improved, Its Weight is 7 Pounds. 
While we continue the offer of the Improved $12 Ma- 
ihine as heretofore, we now offer the new 
PORTABLE FAMILY MACHINE, 
price $20, which comprises all the excellencies of the former, 
with many valuable improvements. Its size and power are 
increased, and its capacity thus very much enlarged,without 
impairing its portability. There have been added cam atul 
eccentric movement, a balance-wheel, and also an oscillat¬ 
ing needle-clamp, by which' the length of stitch can with the 
greatest ease he changed to the finest shade ot variation 
without touching the needle. 
To any one sending us $20, we will send one of the Machines 
(packed in a neat, portable case, witli handle to carry it 
easily), expressage to be paid by purchaser. 
The Machine as a Premium. 
We will give one of these S20 Machines to 
any one who will collect and forward to us 
Fifteen Subscribers to Hearth and Home for 
one year at $3 each, or Thirty Subscribers to 
American Agriculturist for one year at $1.50 
each, or One Hundred at $1 each, expressage 
on the Machine to be paid by the recipient 
of it. 
fsT" Almost any lady can readily secure the small 
number of subscribers required to get either the $12 or 
the $20 Machine as described above; or some friend can 
thus obtain it for her as a present.

MONEY. 
The Publishers of American Ag¬ 
riculturist and Hearth and Home 
take pleasure in presenting in the 
adjoining Table, their new general 
Premium List for 1874. The Pre¬ 
miums which they have offered in 
past years have engaged the atten¬ 
tion of a very large number of 
persons of all ages and both sexes. 
Many thousands have secured Pre¬ 
miums, and very many of these, 
who at first had small hopes of 
success, have been themselves as¬ 
tonished at the ease with which 
they have raised large clubs and 
secured valuable Premiums. 
Here is pleasant and profitable 
work for all. Any one who wishes 
to do good and make 
money, can do both by going 
to work as here invited by the pub¬ 
lishers 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 publish¬ 
ers’ offer, and forward your sub¬ 
scriptions. TRY IT. 
Explanatory IVotes. 
,W.B. 
Read and carefully 
Note tlie following Items: 
(a) AH 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 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 
we offer premiums to canvassers. 
(/) Specimen Numbers, etc., will 
be supplied free as needed by 
canvassers, but they should be used 
carefully and economically, and where 
they will tell....(y) Remit money in 
Checks on New York Banks or Bank¬ 
ers, payable to order of Orange -Tudd 
Company, or send Post-officp 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 sent in any of the above ways 
is at our risk; otherwise it is not.
