Patents that the Patrons own.

The Order ofP. of II. now owns a patent
for frst-class harvester, said to be, by those
who have tried it, the best in the world.
This is sold for less than $3.50.
1t also owns a patent for a hay rake
which cannot be surpassed by any now
made. 1t is strong, manufactured of the
very best material and for punching hay
never had an equal. This machine is sold
for S25, and for this as we'll as the Werner
Harvester, we are indebted to the Iowa
Patrons.
The Order also has patent seeder, pur-
chased of the inventor Of the "Van Bruut'
Seeder of Beaver Dam, Wis. This is an
improvement on the Van Brunt, and is sold
for $4,000.
1t also has the control of selErake reap
err and mower, which, like the others, is Civ
ing the very best satisfaction. This is sold
for Sl49.
Other patents are being examined by the
executive committee Of the National Grange,
and will be secured if found worthy of merit.
Farmers Union.
Business ought to revive rapidly at the
West, as the counterfeiters have been inhat-
ing the currency there rapidly. Till these
spurious bills are detected, they will have
just as much influence on business prosperity
as brand-new greenbacks from Washington
would. They are not redeemable, neither
are the greenbacks they pass from hand to
hand facilitate business" ''increaso capital"
and "give life-blood" to all the channels Of
trade; they are vastly superior to any issue
of the bank monopolists, being the direct
manufacture of the free people. Ga any
theory Of the demand for more money!" il
can be answered as well by counterfeit as by
lawful money.

this fno noighbor Of yours, who would not
sell to man when drunk, and then he for
gets his self respect and goes into yonder
low GROCERY where he can get what he
wants, and he staggers home in the early

measure responsible for the agony of soul
thus brought'to that Christian mother
We have respect for the man whose
high sense of honor and Of duty will lead
him to lodge information against the rum
seller. We know that false code Of honor
rules that tho "informer" is not fit for socie-
ty. So much the more credit ito the man
who, knowing this, still dares to do what he
conceives to be his duty The man who
aids in exposing murderer is the recipient
of honor aud praise. How much interest
has been awakened in the Ball murder at
st. Adams The man who should be in
strumental in bringing its perpetrators to
justice would receive praise and reward !;
and justly, too, But there are other crimes
Of equal and greater atrocity committed, for
which the rumseller is primarily responsible,
and he who brings the offender to justice is
just as much public benefactor.
a determined effort is being made by
those who oppose the prohibitory law to
have it removed from our statute books.
We hope and believe they will not succeed.
The Green Mountain State must not 90
back on her record. She has proud rec
ord as an anti.slave state and now the no.
BILE temperance workers are making for her
an equally glorious name as one of the FORE
most Of the states in the battle against this
curse next to slavery-rum.
We are told that the temperance story is
an old story, and all worn out; is it any
older than the story in that best of books
Let the two go together. Let Christianity
and strict temperance prevail through the
length and breadth of our fair republic, and
where shall its equal be found We have
faith in popular institutions. We have
faith in the people Of America. We are
not afraid of the disruption of our republic
or the establishment Of monarchy here, as
some predict. And for the same reason we
are not afraid that the noble temperance
movement will fail-because God is with it.

prices have been well Sustained ,lnring tho
week ana while no material advance is
,ooheu IoI, tnerc is very confident feeling
that wool is now rs low rs il will he for some
time to como. The appearance of New York
and Philadelphia buyers almost every weak
| indicates the scarcity of wool outside of Bos-
ton, and the medium grades of wool wanted
for these markets is now difficult To find
here. About 100000 pounds, principally No.
l heeces, have been bought for New York
| from SO to 53c per Id, and include Wiscon-
sin, Michigan and Ohio fieeces For the
| West there has been some inquiry, and some
lots of medium and coarse feeces are now
hnding their way in that direction. Medium
fleece woods are, therefore, already scarce at
all points, both in the interior and the lead
ing markets on tho seaboard.
There has been considerable inquiry for
hne wools but without resulting in any con-
siderable sales. Buyers are evidently get
ting short of fine stock and we soon look for
more active movements. Some purchases
OF AN fleeces could be made ut SO to sac,
but the most desirable lots are held at $50
and upwards.
While clothing woods are held so firm,
wooden goods do not respond in the least.
| Goods have, in fact, been forced off mt large
concessions. In some instances, what is
termed the Strengthening process has been
adopted and large lines offered ut so low n
price that buyers could not hesitate. Tho
large clothing houses are also complaining
| of dull trade. The mild weather during
October and November has interferred with
the sale OF heavy goods, and the business of
manufacturing is rs depressed MS ever. The
production ofIwoolens WILL no doubt, be fur
Their reduced, and the manufacture OF cloth
ing, by which so many find employment dur
ing the winter months, in the interior towns
of New England, will be much less than us
ual, unless favorable change takes place in
the demand for goods.

There never was better time to get up a
club for the FARMER. A new volume COM
mences December and there is now just
about time to get good club commencing
at that time. Clubs may commence at any
time, however. We hope every farmer and
working man who considers the VERMONT
FARMER his friend will interest himself to
increase its circulation. Remember every
person who pays up to Jan. l, 1876, at 81
per year, will receive a Register free, and
the postage on the paper will be prepaid by
the publisher. Ifyou prefer a discount on
the paper rather than the Register, just read
our club terms in another place.

voters in the name OF the people opposed to

We have very good opportunity TO COM
pare tue several agricultural publications
patronized by our citizens, and we have no
hesitation in saying that if we were II farmer
m Vermont we should prefer the Vermont
Farmer, rs newspaper of local and general
interest to any OF the many more pretentious
journals that Haunt their pictorial pages in
farmers faces. An amateur may prefer tho
more pretentious and gaily deckod journals,
but Tor good substantial and valuable read :
ing for the agricultural citizens of Vermont
the fdrDler Is, IN our estimation, the best
paper 10 take. We are not acquainted with
its editor, and no interest in his success; nor
any other reason for writing these words ex-
cept to call the attention of our farmer
friends to y home paper well worthy Itheir
pport.-Benntngton Banner.
Thank you, Bro. Cushman. And here
we will add that the foregoing gives us
more pleasure from the fact that it appears
in paper that always seems to dare to say
what it thinks, (unless there is danger Of
harming the republican party thereby,) and
says t in language Enthusiastically plain. We
don't believe man, beast, or demon could
scare that Banner man when he gets started
after fraud or a wrong. Besides, there's
good deal Of fun in him, and it often gets
into the Banner.

1t is rather amusing to see the Boston
Journal quote the language of the Irish
World in exposition of wrong-dOings in the
democratic camp and in giving credit class
the World as "democratic," to make its
statements appear to come from within the
party, and therefore to be of more force If
against that party, We know of no more
fearless and independent sheet, as regards
partzan politics, than the Irish World.
The immense frauds which lie at the door Of
both the old parties meet with equal denun-
citation in its columns.
