Patrons of Husbandry or the
Oranges.

We find the purposes OF the above
named order, which is rapidly spread
ing over the country, explained as
follows;
One of the principal objects of the
Patrons of Husbandry, Or the Grang-
ers, as they are generally known, is to
engage in cooperative purchases of
merchandise of general consumption,
somewhat on the plan of the co.pera-
tive stores which have proved so sue
cessful in Great Britain, dealing di-
rectly with manufacturers and whole
sale merchants, and thus dispensing
as tar as possible with the services of
middlemen Some of the Western
Changers propose the incorporation of
the subordinate Oranges into stock
companies with cash capitals, and the
appointment of agents to carry on the
business of buying and selling in
wholesale quantities at every county
seat where the organization is in
operation. Also, the establishment of
grain elevators ana hay presses at CON
venient points for the use of members
of the order. This plan is to be pre-
sented for the consideration of the
National Grange at its next meeting.
The public are aware Of the great
progress which the Granger organi
cation has made in the West. In the
East, however, it has met with less
success from various causes, one of
most apparent of which is the fact that
in this section Of the country, and
especially in the New England States,
mechanical and manufacturing indus
tries predominant over the agricultural
interests. The originators of the
Oranges, approaching the significance
of this condition of things, and de-
sirous of increasing the power Of their
organization, have made an important
movement for the establishment OF an
affiliated association, and have just
organized in Worcester, Mass, new
order to be called the Sovereigns of
Industry, which is to include in its
membership not only farmers, but all
persons identified with industrial
pursuits. The organization is a ma
tional one, William Fl. Earl of Wcr-
cester being its President and j. c.
Abbott, General Deputy of the Pat
rons of Husbandry, its Secretary
The avowed objects. of the organiza-
ton are the bringing of consumers
and producers into closer contact
in order to reduce the cost of the nee
essaries of life the reduction of ex.
cessive charges for transportation !;
and the restriction of the powers of
monopolies. 1t is proposed that
agents of local Granger organizations
in the West shall ship flour and grain
to the agents of the new order by the
cargo, receiving in return She pro-
duets of the factories and workshops
in the East. Like the Patrons of
Husbandry, the new order processes
not to attempt or intend any political
action but no one who has observed
the important political results which
have followed the growth of the
Changers in the Northwestern States
can doubt that the Sovereigns of In
dustry, if they gain any such strength
as the former order, will make their
influence felt at the polls.
