To the Patrons Of Kansas.

The time appointed for the meeting
of the State Grange, December 18th,
is rapidly approaching. and we hope
there may be full attendance from
every county in the State. 1t is nee
essary to put new life and yigor into
the organization in Kansas, to pre-
serve il for future usefulness. The
petty, personal rings now managing
its affairs, should be broken up, and
men placed on the Executive Commit
tee, and at the head of the organiZa
ton, who will have broader and a
higher idea of their duties than their
own personal wishes aud prejudices.
1t is absolutely necessary for the Pa
irons of every county to make special
efforts to send delegates, as we believe
this 10 be time in the history of the
organization in this State, when wise
and earnest action will preserve it land
on the other hand, lukewarmness and
apathy will permit it to sink out of
sight.
1t is only proper TO state, that from
information in our possession, which
we think entirely trustworthy, there
is no money in the State Grange treas
Jury with whic to pay the expenses of
delegates, and the county organize
tons should make the necessary pro-
vision for the delegates, with this fact
in view. The condition of the State
Grange treasury has been carefully
concealed from the membership which
we believe 10 be wrong. The time for
weak. shillyshallying subterfuges has
passed. If the Order is to be MAIN
tanned in Kansas, the Patrons must
take hold of it and do it |
without undertaking to fool anybody |
about its true condition. We say to |
the Patrons, send your best men as
delegates. Let them come instructed |
to do their whole duty fcarlessly.-

Red Wash FOR Brick Residences.


Travellers visiting Chicago are as
tonished at the beautiful appearance Of
the brick buildings in that city. show
ing SO distinctly the lines of white NOR
tar between the bricks. 1t has taken
years of trial before a mixture could
stand the test of rain and frost. At
last the following has given thorough
satisfaction: Venetian red and Paris
brown, in proportion to suit the taste,
are mixed with quantity of water to
make heavy wash. With this the
walls are well coated. To set the col
or to the wall and prevent its washing
off by the rain, wash with diluted
muriatic acid Zone quarter acid) is
given over the painted surface.
The mixture forming the white
lines or joints is made of settled white
lime, to which is slowly added plaster
of paris, kept string until the mix
ture is past settling; then mix little
fine sand, to keep from cracking, and
work into the consistency of GLACIERS
putty. This putty is then applied to
the walls by two men, along straight
edge, and with beading trowel, the
distance of the joints having previous
ly been measured. Care should be
taken in applying this putty, to press
it strongly against the wall, to pre-
vent any water creeping between it
and the brick. In winter time we
should suppose that the water
would freeze, expand, and detach the
the white joint, thus spelling the looks
of the building. But it is important
if the treatment described above
proves effectual. 1t is certainly worth
trying, for an indestructible red and
white paint on brick work is very
beautiful. Cincinnati Enquirer.

The National Grange.

The National grange is now in ses-
sion at the Palmer House in this city.
Members of the Executive Committee
arrived early in the week but the chair
man, Mr.. Aiken, of South Carolina,
has not yet put in his appearance. AS
he was candidate for Congress from
his district, it is not unlikely that the
political uncertainties in that State
render it necessary for him to remain
until the official count is made.
Among the members ofthe National
Grange that we have met are Masters
Jones, of Arkansas; Chase, of New
Hampshire; Davie of Kentucky; Shank
land, of Iowa: Colder, of Illinois; Ad-
ans, of Minnesota; Moore, of Mary
land; Whitehead, of New Jersey; Nc
Dowell, of New York, besides a great
many officers of various State and
local Oranges.
Among the matters that will occupy
the attention of the meeting, will be
the election of secretary in place Of
Mr.. Kelly, who, it is understood, is to
tender his resignation at this meeting,
he having concluded to devote his
whole time to his land business in
Florida. Something will undoubtedly
be done regarding the financial man.
agement of the National Grange with
view to greater economy in its
workings. 1t is also believed that the
subject of monthly bulletin, to be
circulated among the subordinate
Oranges, will be discussed, and prob
ably acted upon favorably. An effort
will be made to reinstate the Garden
City Grange, the fret one organized
in this State.--Prdi,ie Farmer.

corsets are more Objectionable than
whalebone on the ground of danger

Some years have elapsed since the
work on the great bridge at New York
was begun, and it is estimated that
four years more will be required to
complete it. How much money it
will have cost when completed is not
stated. The preliminary preparations
for stretching the great cables that are
TO suspend the bridge are now being
made. There are to be four suspend
ing cables, each fifteen inches in diam
eter. and consisting OF nineteen strands
each strand containing 1888 wires, so
that the total number OF wires in each
cable will be 6,327. Thirty-four hun
dred tons of galvanized steel wire,
about the size of an ordinary lead pen
Gil, will be required. AS part of the
history of the enterprise, it is stated
that the number of men killed during
its progress is fourteen.

Millions OF Pigeons.

A letter from Moscow, Pa, says: A
wilderness known as the Beach woods
covers a large portion OF western Pike
county and northwestern Monroe coun-
ty. this State. Ike Bennett and Clint
Waters, bark peddlers, were In the
depths of the woods ON Friday last, when
they were startled by sudden darken-
ing of the sky and noise like a heavy
gale of wind. At the same time the
trees about them began to fill with wild
pigeons. They came from the north
ward. and as far as the men could see in
that direction the air was black with the
birds. They settled down in the trees
as thick as bees, and in an incredibly
short space of time the woods seemed to
be living mass of pigeons. They
lighted in the trees in such numbers that
large branches were broken by their
weight. They seemed to take no heed
of the men, and crowded the trees under
which they stood, occupying branches
almost within reach of them. Nearly
half an hour elapsed before they all
found resting places in the woods. The
bark peddlers killed hundreds of them
with clubs, and walked five miles through
the woods without reaching the end of
the roost. The men say that with one
swoop of long club they could knock
dozens to the ground, creating only a
temporary panic among the pigeons, and
that only among those directly attacked.
The lumbermen and others, when told
by Bennett and Waters of the wonderful
sight they had seen, organized night
NJ
and guns started for the woods, and
reached there after dark. They carried
torches of pine knots. The pigeons,
alarmed by the noise of the guns and the
glaring of the torches, rose from their
perches and flew blindly about. For
two hours the poles and guns made sad
havoc among the roosting birds, The
roar of thousands of wings, the cracking
of branches, flashing torches, smashing
poles, and reports of guns, formed a
scene wild and terrible. Thousands Of
pigeons were slaughtered before the law
less and ruthless destroyers were glutted.
Each one brought away as many as he
could carry, which was small portion
compared with the number left on the
ground to feed the foxes and wolves.
On Saturday morning another expedi-
ton started out for further slaughter OF
the pigeons. The birds had evidently
sought the roost for the purpose of nest
ing. The woods swarmed with hunters
on Saturday. The great flock finally
rose en- masse, and in short time every
bird had disappeared. The direction of
the flight was westward toward the Sus-
uuehanna. 1t is estimated that the flock
was fully twelve miles long and four or
five in width.
