PATRONS OF HUSBANDRY.

The Grange is doing vastly more for the
young people tsiam is generally supposed.
Many young men have been built up in
character. There are those who are now
head and shoulders above doing things in
which they were wont to indulge them
selves before they became members of the
order. The associations and influences of
the Grange have taught them selfrespect
and the importance of selt-control.-Pruule
Fa7sees.

There appears to have been but little
change in the produce markets since our
last report. With but a few exception the
prices appear to be at fair rates for the

largely and so things 90 smoothly on.

N TO ORANGES.

A Grange is an organized cooperative
society and is, or ought to be, at all times,
in complete running order. Its object is
the benefit of its members, intellectually,
physically, morally and pecuniarily. How
best to accomplish the desired object and
reap the full benefit of cooperation should
Re the constant study of each and every
member.
We take it tor granted that no Patron Of
Husbandry is so stupid as to believe that he
Or she can realize any very decided benefit
simply by joining the Grange and paying
the monthly dues. Joining the Grange is
simply placing ones self in a position where
by earnest and we'll directed effort, greater
good can be accomplished than by the most
persistent individual endeavers., The month
Iy dues can only be regarded as a contribu-
ton for incidental expenses and can form
no part of the cash capital required for the
accomplishment of the real objects of the
society.
In thi, article we wish to point out a sim

where located, can, by cooperation, delid-

Grange and be used fer the benetit Of its
members only. The expense, per capita,
will be small. Two hundred and fifty dol
lars will buy superior animals and five huns
alred will procure tirst-class. If the Grange
has large membership, a stallion may be
added to the list, and the great work OF
stock Improvement will begin.
There is more money and less labor in
stock than i'll anything available to the
farmer. The scrubs which are everywhere
seen, are of little value, but every year,
with proper crossing, their value can be in
creased in almost geonletrical proportion,
The climate, range, water and markets OF
the South are peculiarly adapted TO this in
dustrY and it should Immediately take front
lank among our resources and will do SO, if
the suggestions we have made are adopted
by any considerable numberof our Oranges.
Let the improvement begin now. Do not
wait I'LL next year or any period more re-
mote. Every days delay is money lost.
The plan is entirely feasible and requires no
great skill or experience to accomplish the
imaginative movement. Common sense
and Il generous supply of money will start
the interested parties On the road to real
prosperity.--Son Of the Sotl. |
