A Visit to Centre Grange-
It was our pleasure to bo present
at the Regular meeting of this!
staunch Grange on Saturday Nov.
13th. We made the acquaintance of
several worthy Brothers and wero
delighted to see the deep interest
manifested by all present in the work
ings of the Grange. Tho ladies par
ticularly indicated a spirit of zeal
that assures the success of the
Grange.
Worthy .Vaster A. Scarborough
deserves much praise for the excel
lent condition of his Grange, and the
several officers reflect much credit
upon it by the thoroughness with
which they discharge their respect
ive duties. We fully appreciate the
honor conferred upon oa in being re
quested to preside over a 'Grange
consisting of so true and carnost Pats
rons, and thank sincerely the Grange
for their endorsement, and selection
of the Mat aa their organ, and shall
use onr best endeavors to provo it
worthy of the high compliment. The
beauties of tbe Orange display them
selves in their grandest form out in
the country where nature lends ber
charms ia profaseness, indicating her
appreciation of the cause, and when
such true and genuine hospitality is
uieeted out tbe scene is complete.

gest themselves now which at first

Cor. Western Farm Journal.
How tiiey 00 Down. Freights,
end commission on grain are on the
tumble. One house after another is
sues circulars to tho farmers announc
ing a great reduction in these partic
ulars. Tempting inducements are
offered- " What What's" the mat
ter?" What's the cause of all this ?
They did't do so in former yenrs.
The Grangers are in the field They
cannot be deceived by theso circulars,
issued by different houses, all of
which are regulated by ono grand
central wheat rinsr. They propose
to do their own' business in their own
way to make their own arrange
ments and follow them out, sly
dodges and tempting offers to the
contrary notwithstanding ; and in
this firm decision lies their own safe
ty. Should they, at this critical stage
of tho game, allow themselves to bo
hoodwinked by any of the artful
schemes adopted by their adversa
ries, and lose tattb in their own abil
ity to mauago their own 8 Hairs ;
should tliey allow any of tho misrep
resentations concerning their choren
leaders and agents to cause tlicuv to
hesitate or warcr in their firm, unit
ed support to these their representa
tives, that moment victory will porch
upon the bancer of the foe, and tho
defeated farmers will fall back help
less into the hands ot their former
tyrants. Grangers, stand by those
whom you liavo chosen to act for
you. Their actions are all open to
your inspection. Should they prove
unworthy, the remedy is in your own
hands. Ex

no pass the local market and
nko advantage ol other markets,
wheu it would bo U interest lo do
so. It is time that t.is stato of
things be remedied. It can easily bo
done. You ask how ? Let there be
formed an Orange Growers' Associa
tion, and let this association appoint
intelligent committees to report on
tho bc.it method of gathering, park
ing and chipping' tho manre, nnd en
the best markets for the orange, and
the cheapest methods of reaching
these markets. Let the orange grow
ing belt be divided into district, and let
intelligent nud practical orange men
be appointed to make a curelul sur
vey of each oistrict, say in the months
of Juno and July, nnd report to tho
association the probable amount
of fruit or number of birrels
of c ranges that will rir.cu m.d
be for market in each district. Then
let the as.-ociatian fend to St. Lonhi,
Cincinnati, Chicago, end other citien
in tho North and West, trusty ascnts
duty it shall bo to form good and
substantial business relations with
fruit houses there, so that when the
time ol gathering fruit comes, the
oi augo growers will know where their
fruit is wanted and; can bo cold, aud
will bo nblo, therefore, to fill orders
through the association and its agents
and in that way to reap the benefits
of their own la'jor in securing the
highest possible prices for their
oranges. By knowing before Ihc
oranges begin to be gathered about
the number of ban els that wilPbe rais
ed, it will be easy to fix upon a fair
price for the fruit at the opening of
the market, based upon the princi
pl: of supply and demand. As it is
now, the only principle thutgoverns
tho price of tho fruit is the umount
on hand in New Orleans at any one
time. If a few hundred barrel hap
pea to'eome in at a time, the market
falls because tho local market is said
to be glutted. If arrangements were
made with the Northern and West-
ern markets, as above suggested,
there would be no such thing as glut
ting the maiket with the compara
tively few thousand barrels of oranges
now grown iu Louisiana. Ten times the
number could be thrown npon the mar
ket and yet it be poorly supplied, if the
fruit growers would see to it that
their oranges got to the markets
where they are wanted, when they
are wanted, and in the condition they
are wanted."
Thcee suggestions aro equally ap
plicable to the growers of the Coast.
Although the production of the
orango pays well now, with an ussnci
ation of tho kind, it would pay still
better. Let our people reflect over
this matter and inaugurate a system
ot this kinda at once, this season.
Rest assured it wil pay you for your
trouble. We will lend our asssist
ance iu any way towards bringing
the producers in direct contact with
tho coneumcrs.

wis di tril'iiii'd by a iH'hoy, and I
look special pains lo notico 'be man'
ner in which it was received, and in
all cases it necmed to attract marked
attention in many cncs person
read it through ut once, in case they
hud not timo to read it, they folded
it up carefully und put it their pock
et in no case was it thrown aside
and lieated as o dinaij advertise
ments ; this was true throughout the
entire section nf country I visit. -d.
Tho next point I vistcd was Chic
ago. Hero I called npou Mr. W.
Johnson, General Passerger Agent of
the Illinois Central Railroad Co., who
manifested a le'p interest in the en
terprise in which I was cngngod, and
stated lha his company would (lo as
much in every respect, as the road
from New Oi lcans to Cairo towaids
advancing the on 1 pi prise ; and gave
mo a general letter to the pitss of
Chicago, which was of service to mo
as I made it a point, wherever I went
to lay the cuterpriru before the press;
and it affords me great pleasure to
stato that il was received with mark
ed attention by tho eutiro press of
the North-West, wkhout distisctiun
of party all seeming lo recognize
tho great truth, that the South must
bo built up und made prosperous,
iu order to maintain thejreneral pros
perity and welfare of their section of
country, us well us that of tho gener
al government: and iu view of the fact
that the lido of enrgrutioii is now set
ting back from the far West brought j
about by various causes, among
which are ft). lures of crops, devasta
tion by insects, great scarcity of wa
ter, and the insurmountable obstacle,
the expensive transportation on every
thing they huve to ship or receive, to
say nothing of uugi niul climate. It
is ge::eially conceded, th.it the South
is the most favored outlet for thd
people of the N'irtli-West ; our inter
e.ts being identical ; tho two sections
so closely connected by water and
railroad communication, and the nat
ural exchange of the products ol tho
North and South.
I would hero remark, that I found
a Btrocg fcoiiug in favor of tho gen
eral government improving the out
let of the Mississippi river, thus abler-ding
to the North-west, comjieti'
lion and consequently cheap trauspo-.
tation lor their products by way of
the Gulf and Atlantic, to the Eastern
States and to Europe.
1 next visited Cincinnati, where I
found a deep interest exhibited in fa
vor of developing the resources of
the South, which is manifested in
part by the very interests that city is
taking in tne building of what is
known as the Great Southern Rail
road from Cincinnati to Atlauta, at
a cost of many millions of dollars,
which, when completed, will only give
that city aecesi to a portion of ihc
South, pos.?esing far less natural ads
vantages, fertility of tho toil, etc,
than the lower Misississippi Yalrey.
From Cincinnati I went on to In
dianapolis, the great railroad city ot
the Uuited States, where our enterprise
was osjain received with great favor
by the press ui.d eople generally
that city having direct railroad com
munication with our section of coun
try, by way of Vmccnnea and Cairo
naturally feels a deep icier est ia the

(d in part br the rdlutiona of our
niate Grange, in which Ihey ctlcnd
a cord al welcome lo their brethren
of tho North-West and all others
who desire to make fhrir homo in our
S'nte, and I felt free to as-uro my
friencl-t of the Wost, that tho good
jicople of Mississippi were now pre
pared lo carry out in good faith, the
sentiment expressed in faiii resolutions
to all persons who would como to
our Slate in good faith and identify
themselves with her interests.
In view of tho languishing coali
tion of our section of country, and
the necessity for, and great ndvantas
ges to bo derived from immigration
to our State, would it not bo wise on
the part of the land-holders and
railroad incorporations of our State,
to co-operate and organize at once
with a view of pressing this noble
enterprise forward. As a business
transaction I am convinced that it
wauld pay the landholders of tho
Stale to donate one fourth of their
lands to good and thrifty farmers, who
would move upon and cullivato thera
for a given te- in of years, and thus
enhance the vluo of the lands and
lessen the burdens of taxation by a
legitimate nicreaso in the valua ot
property thus occupied and cultivated,
to say nothing of other advantages
resulting therefrom. I run pleased
to learn that thcro is a general feel
ing in favor of such a scheme.
Notes oa Advertising.
To cure dull times apply an ad
vertisement to the afflicted part.
A sign board e n't tell anything.
It takes on advertisement to do that.
All who advertise do not get rich,
but very few get rich without it.
The world is full of advertising,
yet every one wants to see what is
new.
The world's memorv is short. It
will forget you if you do not jog it
frequently.
1' he world is sure to find out an
honest man ; but it will find him out
b great deal quicker if he advertises.
CoTTisa Flower.. Never cut
fl iweis during intense euushine, nor
keep them exposed to the sua cr
wind. Do not collect thorn in large
bundles or tie them together, as this
hastens their decay, Do not pull
them, but cut them cleanly off with a
sharp knife cot with scissors. When
taken indoors, place them in tho
shade, and reduce them to the re
quired length of stalk with a sharp
knife, bv which the tubes, thro' gh
which they draw up the water, is
permitted to ascend freely ; whereas,
if the stems are bruised or lacerat
ed, tho pores are closed up.
Use pure water to Bet them in, or
pure send in a slate of saturation,
slicking the end of the stalks into it,
bat not in a crowded manner. If in
water alone it ought to be changed
daily, and a thin slice should be cut
off the ends of the stalk at every
change of water Ex.
Grangers in ' Wisconsin have on
hand $2aO,000 toward a Slate Agri
cultural Implement Society. There
is a movement n foot in Tennessee
to establish a similar culeiprise.

Remarks. Wo most heartily en
dorso the above action of tho Gulf
City Grange, ("Mobile Ala,) and
would earnestly iccommend a like
action on the part of every Southern
Grange. The North has taken this
matter thoroughly in band, and we
have organized a National Assoclas
ion for the proper protection of
game, fish and ineceth croud birds.
Let us render it and hence ourselves,
all the aid in our power.
The Wisconsin grangers already
have established fony one co-opers
alive associations for selling goods
and manulacturing, and twenty-nine
insurance compmies; all flourishing
and representing capital to the
amount of four millions of dollars,
The Patrons of Missouri have a
tri weekfy Grange Packet line, com
posed of the Havannnh and Oollossus,
plying between St. Louis and Galena,
in the interest of the IV.nners, in ops
position to an old wealthy lino.
A Mississippi Grange is offering
$25 tor the best corn and the largest
number of bushels from one acre of
land ; $15 or tho largest number of
gallons from one ocro of cane ; onc4
$10 for the largest and best uogjrtfised
in Winston county.
A new oi'tranization. under the
name of tho Union Grangers' has;
been organized ; farmers, mechanics
and laboiers are admitted to mem
bership, and the order proposes to ac
plish its objects through political ag
itatfon and Icialhtion.
A Granger's common sense Sorgs
