T&© Farm,
National Grange of Patrons of Hus
bandry.
The New York Sun says : The old
est combination of agriculturists in the
country is the National Grange of the
Patrons of Husbandry. Its primary
objects are essentially non-political,
and most of i's work has been in other
fields—social, educational and commer
cial—but the tendency toward political
activity which has rapidly developed
among farmers within a few months is
making itself felt in the Grange. It
enjoys the distinction of being the first
secret organization in the country
which admitted women to lull mem
bership.
The history of the Grange is a dem
onstration of the difficulties which arise
in attempting to make any practical
combination of farmers. Nominally it
has been iu existence sinee November,
1807, when seven men met in Wash
ington and organized what they ambi
tiously termed, “'The National Grange
of the Patrons of Husbandry.’’ For
four years their work in organization
throughout the country brought little
or no result. But they met reglarly
under their original title, yielding to
no discouragement, although at the
third annual session Worthy Master
Saunders delivered his inaugural in the
presence of Secretary Kelley as his
only auditor. The adpress was printed
next day, however, in one or two morn
ing papers, and was distributed
throughout the country. Before the
fifth annual session was held there had
been organized about two hundred
Granges. In 1872 the Order began to
boom, and before the close of the year,
1,07 i Granges, scattered over more
than half the States, had been organ
ized.
During the next two years the
Grange bad a marvelous growih. In
1873, 8.668 subordinate Granges were
organized, and the next year the num
ber was 11,911. But the growth was
too rapid for stability. With more than
£O,OOO subordinate Granges averaging
a membership of forty, the Order had
become perhaps the largest in the
country, but it was weak through lack
ol organization and discipline. Its
membership had not been properly re
stricted. Everybody wanted to join
the Grange then—lawyers to get cli
ents, doctors to get patients, merchants
to get customers. A Grange was or
ganized on Broadway, New York, with
a membership of forty-five, and repre
senting perhaps, as many millions,
composed of bank presidents, mer
chants, sewing machine markers, and
Wall street speculators. The only
member who could lay claim to having
an interest in agriculture was a mer
chant who owned a house aud lot in
the White Mountains, where he usually
spent his summers. A similar Grange
was organized in Bcston, and in New
Jersey a Grange was formed with a
general of the army as its master, a
stone mason as its secretaiy, and the
owner of a grain elevator as its chaplain.
The rapid gnwth of the financial
resources of the Order led to a foolish
demand that the surplus cueh in its
National Treasury be di.-tributed
among the Subordinate Granges. More
than 863,000 was thus distributed,
and the treasury of the Grange
was thus depleted Nevertheless the
Grange did excellent work for
its members in two or three great
emergencies. The grasshopper plague
of the Northwest brought a generous
relief movement from the members of
the Grange in all other parts of the
country. Tho educational work of the
Grange was promptly felt everywhere.
Postmasters in all the Stateß testified
that the Order had greatly increased
the bulk of the mails, and one said that
there were thirty newspapers taken at
his office where but one was taken be
fore the establishment of the Grange.
The Executive Committee of the Order
found themselves able to make liberal
arrangements with manufacturers for
the supply of all manner ol things to
members of the Order at substantial
cash discounts. Reapers that were
selling at 8275 were reduced to 8175 ;
threshers at 8300 were bought for 8200;
sewing machines that commanded 875
and 8100, tumbled to 840 and 850.
These reduced prices were secured
undar the seal of the Grange, and were
issued to members of the Order in con
fidential price lists. These reductions
and tho aggregate purchases of the
Patrons startled the middlemen, trade
with farmers became disorganized, and
it was impossible to permanently main
tain such a system of liberal discounts.
One point was gained, however, for the
reduction in price once secured was
never lost. A more permanent advan
tage was gained by the establishment of
co operative stores all over the country,
most ol which are still conducted ac
cording to the original plan.
Since the great boom which the
Grange had in 1872 and 1873, it has
suffered a serious reactiou. It still
numbers more than 26,000 Subordi
nate Granges, but the membership con
stantly fluctuates, aud no figures are

made public by the officers. The lead
ers of the Alliance naturally claim that
their order is making heavy drafts
upon the membership of the Grange.
It still remains true, however, that the
Grange is doing the most valuable and
systematic work for the yoemanry of
the country, and that its influencs,
political and otherwise, has scarcely
deteriorated.
In politics the Grange has always
been strictly non-partisan, and indeed,
until recently it has figured almost as a
noo-polit cal organization. Latterly,
however, the Grange is doing active
work in seeking to protect agricultural
interests both at Washington and in
State capitals. Its Legislative Com
mittee now consists of J. H. Brigham,
of Delta, Ohio. Master of the National
Grange; JohnJTrimble, Secretary of
the National Grange, and Leonard
Rhone, of Pennsylvania, Chairman of
the Executive Committee. These gen
tlemen have been at Washington during
the present session of Congress urging
upon the Congressmen the adoption of
. sncli measures as were advocated at the
session of the National Gran?e held at
, Sacramento last November. The
Grange has taken a distinct stand upon
, most of the practical issues now before
, Congress. Its members demand the
. passage ol pending bills to prohibit the
, adulteration of food and other commod
, ities. They ask for the suppression of
I gambling in farm produce; they hare
declared uncompromising war against
I trusts and they favor free coinage and
. complete remonetization of silver. The
I representatives of the Grange at Wash-
I ingto have taken an active part in the
, hearings upon the pending Tariff Bill.
The Grange is neither a free trade nor
, a tariff organizition. It demands in
substance that if there is to be a tariff
the farmer shall get his full share of
, protection.
While the Grange has taken no
, official action regarding the snb treasury
. plan urged by the Alliance, it may be
, said that the older organization does
, not support it. Fully three louths ol
, the members of the Grange are. how
ever, in sympathy with the declaration
, of the Alliance in favor of fr-e coinage
of silver.
. There is a larger proportion of
women in the membership of the
, Grange, Secretary Trimble estimating
their numbers at forty per ceut of the
. whole. The Grange is still growing.
Last year 204 new Granges were
chartered, while this year the number
up to date is 363. There are fully
45,000 members iu New England,
where the Alliance has not yet gone,
and there are organizations in every
. State and Territory iu the Union. The
, next annual convention of the Grange
will be at Atlanta in November.
That the Grange has reached a point
, in politics where it is iu a mood to
, make demands instead of oth-r prayers
, is eviuced by the tone of an address
, which it issued to the members of Con
, gress two months ago- It said :
, "If the manufacturers contiuue the
demand for raw material (so called) the
I time is near at hand when the farmers
, of the country will give them free raw
, mateiia), but at the same time will ex-
I act free manufactured produ ts. The
, time to ‘turn down,’ with impunity, the
) agricultural interests of this country
, has gone by. Henceforth we shall
, ‘watch as well as pray., The quiet
r submission to neglect and unfiir dis
i crimination, which has characterized
, the farmers of the past has given jlace
3 to a quiet but firm determination to
f know our rights and in the future to
3 maintain them by every legitimate
3 means within our reach. We are no
longer a mass of unorganized he’pless
i ness. Dire necessity has forced us to
j organize lor self preservation. An
t army more numerous than the cornbin
t ed armies of Grant, Sherman, Lee and
. Johnson is already in the field.
"Some things impracticable and un
r reasonable may be demanded. Such
j the chosen representatives of the whole
r people must have the courage to deny,
3 and trust to time aud experience to
j vindicate their action, but that which
3 is right and proper to demand for the
. agriculturist should be granted, not
. grudgingly, but cheerfully,
j "We are pleased to believe that the
veteran farmers’ organization, with over
j twenty years of experience, which we
3 have the honor to represent, asks lor
nothing impracticable or unreasonable,
9 and we sincerely hope that even a de
, sire to gain a partisan advantage will
, be subordinated to render all possible
j help to a depressed but highly im
. portant industry.
The members of our committee differ
3 as widely as do the msmbeis of the
B great National farmers’ organization
. which we represent upon partisan qncs
f tions. No two are rs ociaud in the
( same political organization, but we
have subordinated our political differ
ences, as have the men we represent, to
, ’he more important work of trying to
9 save from overwhelming disaster and
j distress the most important industry of
our nation. Is it inconsistent to ask
you who are in position to save or to
• practically destroy many branches of
- this industry to do likewise?
Dairy Dots.
It is belter to keep the cow healthy
by good feeding than by medicine.
When you bny remember that the
bull is “half tho herd” and get a good
one.
Don’t forget that calves will eat
grass on hay when they are only a few
weeks old,
A dairy cow should go dry but a few
weeks in the year; a dry cow is not a
paying one.
The cow on pasture runs less risk of
oonstipation at calving time than the
one on dry feed.
Never mind about thc-color of the
cow’s hair, but if her skin is yellow it
is one point in her favor.
We can’t force people to buy what
they don’t wan’t, so we must make the
kind of butter they do want.
The cow that calves just before the
pasture season is over will get a stood
start for her winter’s work.

Epoch.
The transition from long, lingering
and painful sickness to robust health
marks an epoch in the life of the in
dividual. Such a remarkable event is
treasured in the memory and the agency
whereby the good health has been
attained is gratefully blessed. Ilencc
it is that so much is heard in praise of
Electric Bitters. So many leel they
owe their restoration to health, co the

The Federation Prosperous.
The reports of President Gompers and
Secretary Evans, of the American Fed
eration of Labor, I which are just out, show
a steady growth and healthy condition.
As an indication of the increased strength
of tho federation it is noted that the
financial receipts of the general office
for the six months just ended are fully
five times as great as evdr before for the
same length of time. This does not
mean that the membership is five times
as much as before, but that there is a
laudable increaso in the fealty and con
fidence of the unions represented in the
federation. It is understood that the
policy of the federation in dealing with
the unions has never been ironclad, but
rather of tho easy going and voluntary
character.
The Condition That Faces Us.
The report of the registrar of vital
statistics of the board of health of New
York city for the week ending July
19, 1890, shows tliut out of 815
deaths 151 occurred in the institutions
and 544 in the tenement districts. Let
the gentlemen who quarrel with every
suggestion made by reformers to better
the conditions of the poor consider these
figures. While proposed remedies are
opjiosed as “un-American,” “paternal,”
“socialistic,” the children of the poor die
for the want of food and fresh air. Here
is a condition, and not a theory, to deal
with. Jos. R. Buchanan.

A Few Good House Plants.
Certain varieties of fuchsias grow
and bloom freely in the window garden
all wiotcr. They require a rich soil,
and if not growing thriftily should be
banished to the cellar, and probably
will come out the better for the rest.
The soil lor fuchsias should coDsUt of
good gaidcu loam mixed with well
rotted manure and a little satid; if pro
curable, well rotten sod will be better
than the loam. When they cotne into
bloom give them weak liquid manure,
or some weak artificial fertilizer once a
week. They require plenty of light
and air, but do not do well in too high
a tempeture, as red spiders are so apt
to trouble them when in a hot, dry
atmosphere. Syringe tbc-m frequently
on both sides of the foliage; use warm
soap suds, rinsing afterwards in clear
water, if troubled with the red spider-
The varieties of fuchsias best for winter
bloom are Speciosa, Lustrous, Carl
Halt, Mrs. Marshall and Sytiugaflora.
Begonias are very fine for window
plants, as they are mostly very free in
bloom, the iolisge is also wonderfully
beautilul, and well grown specimens
are very interesting as well as most
beautiful to look upon. The soil for
them should be rinb, and they require
sufficient moisture and little sun, but
plenty of light and warmth.
Jaminum grandiflorum is particularly
satisfactory where it can have a rich
soil, warmth and sunshine. It blooms
from September to January, and the
fragrance of its white, wax-like blooms
is exquisite. It is best tra’ned on a
trellis.
The abutilon, sometimes called flower
iog maple, is another good plaut which
may be grown as a small tree, like the
oleander, or kept dwarf and bushy.
Give it a rather sandy soil, give air
when the weather is favorable, water
freely, keep it pruned into shape, and
do not keep it too hot and dry or it will
not bloom so freely.
The Mahernia odorata blooms only in
the winter and early springtime, when
it is completely covered with its grace
ful yellow blooms, having a delightful
perfume. One good plant will scant a
room. It should not be overwatered
nor allowed to get too dry. Repot
after it is through blooming, and keep
it pinched during the summer to insure
its good shape.
Nierembergia grown from seed sown
the summer belore will thrive and
bloom in sun or shade. The old plants
may be wintered over in the cellar, and
when set out again in the spring will
bloom all summer.
Linurn flavurn blooms well during
the winter. It has smooth, shining
leaves, and pretty, lemon colored
flowers, like medium sized morning
glorys in form.
Cuphca platyentra is always bright
with bloom, and has such cute little
tubular blossoms of a bright scarlet
tipped with white.
The Impatiens Sultana is one of the
most persistent bloomers known, and at
least one plant should be in every collec
tion. One thing it will not stand, and
that is pinching back, for every time it
is practiced the branch will soon drop
oflF. To grow root cuttings successfully
they must he placed in sand and kept
at a high temperature. It, however,
layers most easily, and also grows readily
from seed. It likes a rather coolish
temperature, for when in a dry, hot
atmosphere it is easily attacked by its
only enemy, the red spider. Spongiug,
particularly on the under side of the
leaves, should be frequent, as this will
generally keep the spider away. It
likes a rich, fine loam for soil, and
should not be overpotted.
The adiantums. or maidenhair ferns,
are delightful plants for the window.
Adiantum Farleyen.se and graciliimum
are lovely, as also the Pteris scrrulata,
P.tremula and P.argyracea. They
must not be allowed to get dry nor be
in the sun.
The sweet alyssum sown early in the
fall makes a cheerful little plant by
itself, or as a border in window boxes.
It blooms all winter.— Vick's.
