ments of fraternity.
The Secretary's report show that s, 900 SUBJ
ordinate Oranges had been added during the
year, but the increased membership could
not be exactly told.
The Treasurer reported over $4,000 on
hand.
The report of the Executive Committee,
read by Mr.. Saunders, the Chairman, was long,
and full of facts and suggestions touching the
welfare of the Order. 1t spoke of the newness
of the Order, and the difficulty under which
the Committee labored in collecting and col
lsting such facts as might be used as lessons
or warnings for the future The continuance
of secrecy was strenuously advised. The re-
port rehearsed at full length the system of
gathering crop and census statistics through
the Oranges, which, the committee declare.
will soon be the most perfect ever adopted.
The cooperative system is heartily Endorsed,
and it is confidently stated that. through
stores, agencies, grain elevators, etc., the
members of the Order have saved at least
81, 1000, 600 during the past year. The basis of
membership is discussed with some elabora-
ton. The words interested in agriculture,
seem to satisfy the committee, as some of
them have labored under the reproach of be-
ing gentleman farmers. They do not desire
to restrict the membership to farmers. They
profess to look at the question from a wider
standpoint, and think the interests of the Or
der require, sometimes, the admission of per-
sons not directly interested in the tillige OF
the soil. The report speaks at some
length of the transportation question,
and says there is and has been the greatest
harmony between the committee and railroad
officials. They express the opinion that it il
in the highest degree unwise to wage war on
the railroads. There should always subsisl

county, composed Of Masters and Past
Masters of subordinate Oranges and their
wives, who are Matrons, and such fourth-de-

Master Taylor, of South Carolina, presented
the report of the Committee on Commercial
Relations. The committee cordially indorst
the intention of the resolutions offered by Mr.
Aiken, as to asking Congress to restrict the
time and royalty allowed to patents. ono
recommend that seven years be fixed for the
patentees to enjoy the sole benefit of the pat

MEDICAL PROPERTIES oE EGGs.-
The white of an egg has proved
of late the most efficaeions RENE.
dy for burns. Seven or eight
successive applications of this
substance soothes. the pain and
efectually excludes the burn from
the air. This simple remedy seems
preferable to collodion. or even
cotton. Extraordinary stories are
told Of the healing properties of
a new oil which is easily made
from the .yolks. of hens eggs.
The eggs are first boiled hard,
the yolks are tIen removed,
crushed, and placed over a fire,
where they are carefully stirred
until the whole substance is just
on the point of catching fire,
when the oil separates and may
be poured off. 1t is in general
use among the colopis;s of South.
ern Russia as a means curing cuts,
bruises aud scratches.-Bostoa

WATERING HORSES AFTER MEALS.
1t Is The practice with many
horsemen to give their horses no
water until after they have eaten
their allowance OF food. Concern
ing this practice a 9veterint an
writes: 4 full drink of watt TT im-
mediately after being led should
never be allowed to horses. When
water is drunk by them the bulk
of it goeS.directly to the large in
testines, and little of it is retained
in the stomach. lnpassing through
the stomach. however, the water
carries considerable quantities of
the contents to where it lodges in
the intestines. II, then, the food of
horses stomaehs is washed before
it is digested, no nourishment will
be derived from the iced. In Ed
inburg some old horses were fed
with split peas, and then supplied
with water Immediately before be-
ing killed. 1t was found that
the water had carried the peas ff-
ty to sixty ieetinto the intestines.
where no digestion took place at
all. @ S'A So

About Grapes.

We were recently shown o.
yer a vineyard in this neigh
hood, says a Peoria (Ill.) paper,
and from the proprietor and our
own observation CLEANED the
following facts Of interest: The
vineyard was four years old, and
the grapes Of the variety known
as the Concord. The vines
were in splendid condition, and,
Notwithstanding the fact that
grapes had been gathered for
market for more than Il week,
the clusters seemed as plenty as
ever, and. as fall as any we bad
ever seem We learned that
each bunch produces, OF will
carry, from sixty to one hun
dred and ten grapes, and that
the vines, this season, would av-
erage twenty-five pounds each.
Now, one acre will bear one
thousand two hundred ZINES,
which, at twenty-five pounds
each, would give a yield of tliir-
ty thousand pounds tothe acre.
If the grapes were sold at two
and ashalf cents per pound, the
yield, in money, would be $3.50
per acre. Allowing for rent of
land, time and hired labor, with
cost of poles and the other ct
ceteras, 500 per acre "a liberal
allowance certainly $500
would remain as the net income
for a single acre of grapes, al
lowing for the fruit the low |
price of two and one-half certs |
per pound.

Driving Horses.

Why is it that so many of
our farmers and nearly all of
ourzcity carriers insist ON using
q tight rein on working horses?
When horse, left to his natu-
ralinclination, has a heavy load
to pull, he can best exert his
strength if his backbone is in
one continuous line, and this he
will have if, not prevented by a
tight check rein. Some claim
that it prevents a horse from
falling; when a man can raise
himself over a fence by a LII,
on his suspenders we will be-
lieve it. When a horse falls
tight rein will not prevent hin
from getting on his feet again
Try it without a rein and see il
we are not correct i'll our prac'
tice and theory, = aa,

acres:
For the past five years l have
