WHY JorN There are many reasons.
Tho GRANGE il means Of national and
highly beneficial social employment
The farmer lives mainly alone, be sees
few people, his wife secs less, he attends
few lectures, he hears little music, he
goes to few parties, he visits little; be
has other employments. but he lacks IN
social life; he grows dull; his children.
rs they grow up, tire of the loneliness
of the country, and bic them away to
the city. The Grange makes a social
centre: and has special attractions; 1t
gives him something todo, ,andinterests
! him in the doing Of it. A good Grange,
wen conducted, is eminently an enliven-
ing and enjoyable place. Iron sharp
eneth iron, so man sharpeneth the eoun-
tenancs of his friend" 1T is not good
for man to be alone.
The Grange is a means ofvaluablsin-
struction. When farmers meettogether
tbev naturally talk. They talk of their
business as farmers, of the markets, OF
the oppress.ons Of monopolies, the rate
of interest. the railroad law, the third
tern. the prospects Of the Patron smove-
ment. in short. of everything that inter-
ests them as men. A few days since two
good farmers 81. here at our table and
talked of the relative value ofthe differ
ent breeds Of hogs, then Of their proper
care. then of other stock matters, and SO
on: all of US were instructed by the talk
ing together. So of every ything, and par
tisularly at the Grange meetings good
farmers viii find valuable Instructions
in the mutual interchange of views and
/ the relation of their experiences. In
this connection the advice cannot come
amiss If we saw, go early. 1t will afford
ycu greatest opportunity to talk with
your neighbors.
The Grange is a means oflarge saving
in business. Already, through theState
and County agencies, q vast amount of
farm machinery and other supplies have
been purchased BY the farmers. at great
I, " reduced prices; and are now making
4. for still further reductions and vaster
! transactions. Cooperative stores have
been started, insurance companies or
CANNED, elevators built, and agencies
for the sale offar,n products established.
All this tends 10 save money for the
farmer and to teach him habits Of busi-
ness.-SPiri. Of Kansas.

HIGH PRICES.

It has long been evident that many
who desired TO purchase Lock Stitch

ten, peshaps, a. an aid toward procur-
ing livelihood, were deferred from do

spliances necessary, costing more than

stitches; but in the end on account Of re.
pairs constantly needed, time Lost when
they would not work, and garments
spoiled when they would work, they
proved more expensive than the Lock
Stitch Machines; and the seams that
were warranted to take out easily-if
you knew how-had q way of taking
themselves out at time and in a man
ner never anticipated by the wcarer.
In view Of these facts, ELIAS HOWE,
the original inventor of Sewing Ma
chimes, resolved to give the world a
Lock-Stitch Family Sewing Machine
that should combine all the best points
of his previous machines, with such i'm
provements as his long experience and
ripe judgment should suggest; in a
word, the best possible machine, to be
sold at the minimum of profit, relying
upon the large sales sure to follow the
introduction of a strictly first class ma
chine at moderate price.
