may reassure our members, and give the
system strength. ~
G. Let us sustain by our combined trade
and influence the manufacturing and 9th

the s%oundness Of our principles and the noel
ity of our order, have remained true TO Us
giving up in many instances their Ola al
liances and trade, to aid us and to sustain
the principles of grange trade.
T. Let us impress upon our members the
truth. that. though no large amount OF cash
capital is necessary to begin this co-opera-
ton successfully, il we conduct the business
on strictly cooperative principles, yet some
ready money is needed to establish a trade
as is designed to be atterward seltsustaln-
mo: that while we should in all our work
practice a iudicious economy, we should
never lose sight Of this important truth,
that economy is not an end of our work,
but a proper means for accomplishing many
GREAT and good ends. This is with lis but a
question of spending a few hundreds to es-
tablish a system by which we can save
thousands Of dollars, or thousands by which
we can save tens of thousands.
After reconsideration by sections, the re-
port as here printed, was adopted.
Having examined the official report Il
accompanying papers of our commissioner,
explaining his efforts in Europe in our be-
half. which were referred to us, we approve
his work.
TO our Worthy Master and the brother
selected by him for this difficult task, we re-
turn our fraternal thanks; since his report
contains valuable information and sugges-
tons for our order, we recommend that it
be printed together with the reports of this
committee, and the Masters circular letter
Of July, i'll pamphlet form, separate from
the printed proceedings of this session, for
distribution among those members of our
order, especially who may wish to form
such associations as are here proposed.

ACTION ON COOPERATION.

Continued from Jan. Is, 1877.
In addition to facts given by our Worthy
Master in said circular, we will state that
in the Anglo-American Company, each
American share being S. (gold), Is cents
have to be paid on each share where applied
for, $1.50 the fourth month thereafter, and
a similar installment every three calendar
months, until the whole amount is paid.
On any installment not paid when due,
interest, not to exceed 10 per cent. per an
mum, is to be added until payment is made.
Any society wishing to pay its entire
stock in cash, will receive s per cent. per
annum interest OIL the same. You are al
ready informed that a society must take
at least one share for each five of its men,
bers.
10 illustrate mode of payments: If any
society subscribes for 1000 shares that is,
$l0,O00--it must pay down on application
ST, $50 the fourth month thereafter So, 1000
more; three months later $4,000 more; at
the end of three more months the remain
ing So, 500 is payable. Thus in ten months
time the whole should be paid, otherwise
ten per cent. interest is added.
All such companies should be incorpor-
ated under their own State laws, and regis
tered at headquarters of the National
Grange.
We close our report with q few additional
recommendations which we deem impor-
tant, indeed, vital, for success in endeavor-
ing to begin and perfect this work.
/. Establish at the earliest practical time
the proposals State orinter-State associations.
Let meetings be called with due notice at
our chief trade centers by State oranges, or
their executive committees. Let these be
attended by such delegates as subordinate,
county and State oranges, or local bus
mess associations, may authorize to rep
resent them. Let these adopt the rules for
such association, fixing amount of stock,
size and mode of issuing shares, elect di-
%reetors, and take all such preliminary steps
as are necessary to secure the well being of
their members. When ready for work. let

business men, be made their business man.

The winter has been tolerably open here.
Stock has not been fed much yet. The
weather is pretty cold just now, but not
much snow. Sleighing is not good.
Mr.. John j.. Tomlinson will have his grist
mill running in a few days. He has all OF
his machinery, and is working steady to get
it started. 1t is just what this part Of the
valley needs. E. O. RAILsBAcK.

EDITOR HUsBANDMAN: Up to the last ten
days we nave experienced the very finest Of
winter weather, and but little snow; but
for the last ten DAYS it has been very cold
and considerable snow has fallen on the foot
hills; yet, stock are doing finely.
Farming will be carried on quite extern
sively next season, and a full crop will be
soWn.
Grain is scarce on the valley, and but lit
tie will be left after seed and feed is taken
out. No. / wheat for seed is held at So per
bushel; oats at three cents per pound, at
the granery.
There is a select school taught on the val
ley this winter, by Mr.. A. NJ. Bull, who is
giving general satisfaction.
Our grange, No. 20, is alive and prosper
ing, with full attendance. Since we have
got into our new hall, all the members seem
to take a new hold. Our grange paper,
the " Gleanings," is one of the features of
our grange, and is doing much good. All
can express themselves through it, especial
ly the ladies, who do not care to openly
discuss questions in the grange, but are
heard through the paper. Every grange
that has not established a paper OF this
kind should 90 so by all means.

PATRONS.

w. Master Jones has called q meeting
of the Executive Committee, of the Terrific
rial Grange of Montana, on Wednesday,
Feb. IA, at Prickly Pear Grange hall, at 10
O'Clock a. m, Lewis and Clark county, to
consider questions of importance relating to
the order. Some of the objects OF the call
may be briefly stated.
1st. The amended constitution and by
laws submitted at the last session having
failed to become ratified, it leaves the place
for holding the next session unprovided for.
2nd. TO consider proposed amendments
to the constitution and bylaws, and legally
report the same, lsee article Sd of constitu-
ton it is very apparent that our present
constitution is not fully adapted to our
wants and eNperience, and reveals to us
that some very important amendments are
really necessary, and in order that they
may be constitutionally submitted, they
should be handed in to the Executive Com
mittee, on or before the day of meeting tor
their action.
1t is expected that Patrons will discuss in
their oranges any desired amendments that
they think is necessary, and business pro-
jects and questions of general utility, and
submit them to the Executive Committee
without reserve.
All communications addressed to the Ter
ritorial Master or Secretary before the day of
meeting, will be promptly presented before
the committee. P.B. Mills,
Sec'y Ter. Grange.
