Altogether nearly 3ii<) persons were in attendance. ,After the routine opening the chairs of the ofiicers were filled by the team from We.-t Gardiner and the program of the evening was furnished by the visiting team mem tiers and their fellow Patrons. The entertainment was excel lent in every respect and one of the best ever rendered at a Grange meeting in this city. Below is the program, fol lowed by some notes from the talks given. After the season of mental en joyment a bountiful Harvest feast was served by the local Grange. Singing—"America." Grangt Heading, Lecturer Piano aud^Violin Duct.

V. Heald, foi Speaking on •'Co-operation.” Brotho Wadsworth said the word is an or dinary one, but it formes the keynote ■ if the progressive life of the genera tion In its principle is that which dii ferentiates this age from any previou one. It was by co-operation wonderfi things iiave been done, hut now tli principle is applied to the pursuit? o peace. The energy even now spent i fighting competition should, instead, b ipplied to combinations for mutim benefit. If it is legitimate and honorable fo •apital to organize in combinations t form their business interests, it is, alst for labor. None of us endorse that o cither side which is unreasonable o unlawful. Suppose farmers want to hir a mechanic, the price is fixed by som union. Everybody but the farmer i thus looked out for. Farmers sell o shiii their produce for whatever the; ran get. They also pay whatever th' seller chooses to ask for the tilings tile: need. They must get into line witl the rest of humanity and do as the; do, organize, then use good judgment They must produce more, sell for more and buV for less. On tiie question stated above, J Frank Lowell said: ’ There are ttnlim ited opportunities for men and womei everywhere to rise higher in their re spective circles or planes, but on tin farm is the greatest opportunity o my where to show individuality, t> succeed moderately in a financial way to make true, happy homes. It is no the few millionaires lnit the man.' thousands who are establishing thosi same good homes, who make the rea ligli standard of citizenship. The high 'st type of woman, too, Is she who i: maintaining a beautiful home in tin ■eat s-nse of the term. Thus the fart: iffcrs the greatest possible opportunit;. ;o attain good citizenship and com fort in combination, but we must In n love svitli the calling to he fully sue ■essful." John A Spear said success in agrl •lilture, as in other businesses, would lepeml entirely upon the force am ndividiutlily we put into it We nms ling our success or our business P is. not wait for it to come.
