The ulacc of 111001511'' of the next
State Grange of Michigan has been dc
tct mined. The representatives elect
will convene in Rcpiesentativc Hall,
in the city of Lansing, at 10 o'cloclc,ou
Tuesday, the 12th of December.
A Grange in South Carolina requires
the lecturer to keep a book, in which
the prospects and forwardness of the
crops are recorded at each meeting.
His record will, of course, make a
compaiison of the crops of various
jcars easy, and may ultimately piovc
of much interest and value.
The amount saved to Pations,
through the Missouri State Agency,
in the last six months is : On sewing
machines, 3,825; corn planter, 1,137;
cultivators, 1,530; mowers and cap
ers, 7,53G; grain drills, 1S0; groceries,
etc., 8,000; total, 26,508.
The chairman of the National
Grango Executive Committee reports
that there is C2,25C25 invested In
Government bonds, worth now about
70,000 in greenbacks; 9,747.51 stands
to the credit of States that have not
drawn their 2-50 for each subordinate
Grange; deducting this leaves the net
assets in the treasury, 56.578.18.
The Master of the Indiana State
Grange says: "A largo majoiity of
the Granges in most of tho counties
report themselves in good working
order, and increasing in membership
of a better class than some they have
lost. As soon as money can be real
ized on this year's crops, they will be
enabled to more fully carry out that
excellent policy of the Grange the
cash system of busiucss."
In spite of the prediction of its ene
mies, the subordinate Granges of
Minnesota are, as a whole, in better
condition than they were a year ago.
The secretary's books show that up
to date the amount of dues received
is greater by 1,000 than last year at
the same time. Further than this, all
the obligations of the Grange incuned
by Brother Dcnman's failure have
been met dining this time, and the
Order is out of debt.
"Worthy Master Forsyth, of Illinois,
who had been requested by the com
mittee to visit every couuty in the
Stale, in the interest of the Order, re
ported that he had spent his cntiro
time in the performance of this duty
and his necessary office work; that ho
found tnc interest of the Order on the
increase in all patts of the State, and
that he believes tho Order on flic in
crease in all parts of tho State, and
that he believes the Order to bo
stronger to-day than at any other pe
riod of its history, though somewhat
less in numbers, lie also reports the
co-operative enterprises in a prosper
ous condition.
California State Grange.
The work of tho Stale Grange
year has been mainly iu righting
this
the
ship, bringing things into better trim
aud prcpariug for work. Tho dispo
sition was to rcviow tho past and
draw lessons for future action, rather
than for the iuccption of any new en
terprises. The Order lies never be
fore stood upon clearer and firmer
ground for straightforward progress.
Pacific Iittral Press.
As compared with the rest of man
kind, George Francis Train insists
that lie is a cocoanut among peanuts.
Cotton.
Late planted cotton grows better
than early planted, but in locals where
tho seasons arc short, it is important
to plant early, to secure maturing of
the crop. Cotton should be planted
very shallow ono inch is ample depth.
But dry weather provailipg, it may
not conio up if tho seeds aro near the
surface. The old fashioned plan of
opening furrow with a scooter and cov
ering with two furrows of tho same,
aud thcu knocking off with a board
just as the cottou is ready to como up,
is the Eurcst,butit is slow aud tedious.
A plaufer with wheel running in tho
bottom of furrow, aud ptessing tho
earth in a nirrow drill into which the
seeds fall, and covering with a board
pressed down with a spring, or by a
block, will under ordinary circum
stances, givo a good stand. If the beds
aro rough and cloddv, it is best to pre
cede the planter with a harrow, which
wo will briefly describe. It is simply
an ordinary triaugular harrow, from
two aud a half to three feet in width
behind, aud with teeth set a little
sloping backward, to prevent its foul
iug. The front tootli should be about
six inches long in the clear aud the
rearmost ten inches, the intervening
ones increasing gradually in length
in length from front to rear. Such a
harrow will hug a bed, clean it ofT,
still leave it elevated, aud with a uni
form rounded surface. Wc find it ex
ceedingly useful in our own practice
for smoothing and refreshing tho sur
face of beds. It is a great point gain
ed in cotton culture to have the young
plants in a straight narrow Hue, on a
smooth, gently loundcd bed the first
working can then so easily be given it.
Southern Agriculturalist.
A Frenchman on tie Centennial.
A Frenchman who visited the Cen
tennial reports his observations in the
lievue des DeuxMondcs. He sums up
the lessons that the exhibition teaches
as follows:
"America can feed Europe with
corn, wheat, preserved meats and live
stock, as it has supplied it with cot
ton; it has clothed Europe aud it can
nourish Europe. It can get along
without Edrope as far as regards iron,
steel, copper, machinery and most of
the manufactured products. It will
not cease, however, to give Euiopc
the gold aud silver which is needed
for all transactions, for the mines of
the United States yield more than the
mines of tho whole world. As for
coal, Amcriea will soon produce as
much as England, that is, as much as
all the test of the world, and its car
boniferous deposits are twenty times
greater than those of England.
America will learn more and more
how to get along w ithout Europe, but
Europe will not be able to got along
without her. It is truly a new Eng
land which is lising across the seas,
and which aheady threatens tho old
Eugland in all her markets. The com
mercial interests of France arc also
thicatcncd; even Amciicau wines are
competing with ours. Tho conuois
seur alone demands the wines of
Fiance."
The London Cotut Journal says the
following about Short-horns:
"Whether tho top price for Short
horns has yet been reached we do not
know, but that a Duchess bull was
sold for 3,5000 guineas is a great fact
The animal was named the Duke of
Connattght, the purchaser was Lord
Filzhardiugc, and the price was paid
at the sale of Loid Dunmoie's castle,
at Dunmore near Stilling. It is not
6urptising to learn that this animal
was dcsciibcdas "the finest Duchess
bull iu the world," aud it is satisfac
tory to know that he is not going out
of England. Strange to say, both the
sire and mother of the Duke of Con
naught came ftom Canada, having
been bred there by enterprising pur
chasers of Bates' stock. The other
prices realized at LordDunmore's sale
were higher on au average than ever
before known. Another Duchess bull
brought 3,000 gs. two inagniQcent cows
1,950 gs. and -1,810 gs, respcctivcly,and
very few of the animals offered realiz
ed under 300. The average of the
bulls was 992 16s. Sd. per head aud of
the cows 576 os. 6d. per head, the to
tal average of the 39 lots being 672 16s
per head.
Horse Radish.
This is another well-known vegetable
used as a condiment with meats, the
roots of which arc perfectly hardy and
planted in the fall. It is a valuable
plant, but quite gcncially ncglectedin
tho farmer's gardens, being usually
found in some corner ovcr-ruu with
weeds. If planted in good soil and
carefully cultivated the roots grow
quickly aud large aud aro much less
likely to be stiingy and tough than
when grown slowly and in poor land.
A Book About Cats.
It is announced in "Our Dumb Ani
mals," that a woman in an adjoining
State is about to publish a work on
cats ; but whether in favor or agaiust,
we arc not informed. We will venture
to say, however, that it is iu favor of
the Jclinc race, as that is the only
tiuc womanly view to take of the sub
ject, aud she may count us in as a sub
scriber in advance.
The New Crop.
The Department of Agriculture re
ports that the cottou crop will fall
Eomcwhat short of that of last year,
but will rank among the largest crops
ever known in tho country. The sea
son has been favorable for gathering
cotton, except in North Carolina. The
liber is of superior quality in the
Southern belt and tho estimated num
ber of bales is 4,202,100.
Last w inter some farmers disposed
ofsomuchof their corn that they
were so short of feed during tho
spring and summer, aud tho growth
of their stock was, in consequence, di
minished several times as much as tho
extra feed they needed. Wo know of
one man somo of whose spring pigs
are now no larger than others who
were months'youngcr, and tho sole
reason is that the former did not havo
cnouah to cat iu their infancy. Then
let every farmer be certain not to sell
or feed too closely this winter. Na
tionalist. A little boy in tho infant class of a
Sunday school was asked by his teach
er whether he had learned any thing
during tho week. "Oh, yes," said he.
"What havo you learned?" "Never to
trump jour partner's trick,'" was tho
reply.
A pretty Wisconsin school-marm, fo
encourago promptness, promised to
kiss the first scholar at school, and tho
big boys took to roosting on the fence
all night.
