A Nuisance and How to Abate 1t.


About this time of the political
year. the horny-headed candidates
comes to thefront and undertakes to
capture" the "grange vote" VI
course he hasn't the slightest knowl-
edge of the oranges object and means,
and he wouldn't have any sympathy
with them even if he did know what
they were neither does he know what
the grange organization is. If he did,
perhaps-though this is by no means
certain-he would be rather less con-
fident of his success in accomplishing
a task that no one else (and there have
been many who have attempted III has
been able anywhere or at any time to
perfrom. Between the broken down
political hack who courts the support
of the farmers by calling himself a
grange candidate and the city newspa-
pers that attempt TO crush any caDdi-
date from rural parts by calling him a
ssgranger" and gliding the farmer for
wearing home-spun and having ebay
seed in his hair" there is nothing to
choose. Nevertheless, and it is always
well to have the order kept in the
right light before the public and to ex-
pose designing frauds upon it, who
would prostitute it to their own selfish
ends, we have two suggestions to
make:
/. Whenever the grange candi-
date" comes round soliciting the sup
port of the Patrons, let the brothers
ask him about five questions, some
thug like this: /. What is the
Grange? 2. How old is it? 3. What
are the names Of its officers? 4. What
are its objects? 5. BY what means
does it propose to attain these ends :?
Now if the candidate can't answer
these questions satisfactory, he has no
adequate idea Of the scope Of the
great agricultural order, and
deserves to be repudiated; and
he has no business to go around using
the order for political purposes, and
deserves equally to be repudiated.
II. When ever any newspaper al
ludes to any candidate as the grange
candidate" let the master of the near
est grange send the newspaper short
letter containing the express prohibit
tion of the order against political in
references by its members as such,
and explore the fallacy on the spot.
Let this be done and the grange viii
be the gamer in every way and to an
indescrible extent.
Sounder advice than the above it
would be difficult to give. We have
alluded to this etching" OF dema-
gogaes to capture the grange vote"
fore, and at the risk Of monotony we
call attention 10 it again. Under all
circumstances vote for the best man /;
the man of prescience, of diligence, Of
brains and Of honesty Vermont

Our Duty Is to Progross.


We cannot cover over or excuse any
imperGections in our organization with
the darkness and mold Of remote ages.
but must be ready TO be passed
through the moral, social and political
crucibles Of the present, with the
blaze of science and the light Of the
wosld's advanced civilization shining
upon us. And we rejoice in this, that
we arc not 10 dig among the tombs Of
buried centuries for our records and
tenets-rejoicing that they are fash
toned by great minds aud warm hearts
to meet tbe needs Of the times, and
catch the glow and enthusiasm from
to-day, and this is why woman is eIs-
waited to position never hers before.
Do we, my sisters, properly appreciate
the great possibilities for doing good
opened to us here? Do we realize
that we are sclemniy pledged to work
for the Order, the elevation Of our
class and the best interest of our coun-
try? Have we not promised the
world, through our declaration of
principles, 20 do more than any socie-
ty promised before All other re-
form associations are waiting an ex-
preston from US in reference to the
correction of evils that vex the phi
lanthropist everywhere, making this
the most opportune time for decided,
successful action, that will come TO US
in lifetime. Mothers, dare we fritz
ter away the precious moments and
let this golden opportunity pass
VIII not God measure our response
bilities by the magnitude of our priv
ileges
Let us strive to prove ourselves
worthy the trust and confidence re-
posed in Us, worthy the high privileges
we enjoy, and worthy the holy rela-
tionshlp Of mother, by united, earnest
effort to fulfill our promises TO the

1t is quite desirable that grass should
be dry when cut-that is, free from
either dew or rain-for it IS more diff
ficult TO evporate the water from the

ing grass than after ii has been cut
down. In putting hay in cock large
cocks should be avoided, as small ones
viii heat and dry through much quick

the cock over curing in the sun and
air are these The leaves are tougher
and adhere more tenaciously to the
stalk, the juices are expelled and vast

greener and more inviting hue. When
put into the bay, the more the air is
