EVERY subscriber to the volume of "THE CULTIVATOR" for 1850, will receive, with his number for January, a copy of the PICTORIAL CULTIVATOR, as a "New Year's Present." It is printed on the same sized sheet, and paged so as to form the first thirty-two pages of the regular volume.

This sheet, it will be seen, contains over ONE HUNDRED ENGRAVINGS, and is, we think, altogether the handsomest, if not the first Pictorial Sheet, devoted exclusively to Rural Affairs, ever published. It has cost us much labor and expense, and cannot, we think, fail to prove highly acceptable to those for whom it is intended.

POST MASTERS AND OTHERS

Who receive a copy of this work, are respectfully invited to act as AGENTS for THE CULTIVATOR, a new volume of which commences with the January number for 1850. To those who are unacquainted with THE CULTIVATOR, we may state, that it is devoted exclusively to the interests of the Farmer and Planter, and embraces within its scope, every subject relating to the Culture of the Soil, the Breeding and Rearing of Domestic Animals, the Growing of Fruits and Flowers, Rural Architecture, Domestic Economy, etc., etc. It is a NATIONAL PERIODICAL, designed for our whole country, and embraces among its contributors, many of the best Practical and Scientific Farmers in every section of the Union; and has enjoyed, for the sixteen years it has now been published, a circulation altogether unequalled by any similar work.

TERMS. For single copy, $1; for seven copies, $5; for fifteen copies, $10; and for any larger number at the same rate. All payments to be made in advance. All subscriptions to commence with the volume, and none received for less than a year.
