The patron of husbandry. (Columbus, Miss.) 1875-1883, 1879-08-30

Here we meet to-day in a finely car
peted hall, amidst tapestry and tinsel, sur
rounded with pictures and works of art,
and above all, well selected library, that
every Patron can well feel proud Of We
can scarcely convince ourselves of the
pleasant realities of the situation. Only
the short time of six years ago the farmer
knew hardly where to lay his head. He
then dared only to fondly hope that the
sanguine dreams of his imagination could
ever be realized. Yet here in reality we
meet to-day under circumstances that
lived then only in the imagination of the
few. Every Patron should learn the less
on from the success of the situation that
it is possible to make the places of meet
ing of every Subordinate Grange in the
county even grander and more inviting
than here. When so much has been ac-
complished in the first six years by the
Order of Patrons of Husbandry, what
may we not accomplish, in the next six
years by like devotion and labors?
have no sympathy with those who are
constantly crying s.failure," and look only
at the obstacles that have been blindly

It is the army that is continually in the

brings the shout of victory, even if some
batteries and positions were lost and reta-

even if we did not win all our enterprises

Let every member consider that he or
she has place to fiji fiji ii11-Tfe Grange, and
strive to fill that place well. Sickly Gran
ges are always found to- be made up of
sickly members, or Observation-Disclosures
ested-I don't care, kind of members,
have always the effect of making sickly
Oranges. Reader, are you one, of this
kinds? If so, wake up, shake off this in
dolent, careless feeling, and go to work in
earnest. You will, be surprised what a
difference it will make in your Grange

GRANGE REPORTS.
GREENE COUNTY, Tenn:

GREENE COUNTY, Tenn:
The following letter from Bro Naff, we
trust, will remind other Deputies that the
season for work in the Grange cause is at
hand. A live, active Deputy in each
county would soon restore our Order. We
have 200 working Oranges in the State
that will extend a fraternal greeting to all
desiring to volunteer in the important
work of agricultural progress Especially
do these Oranges entreat all Patrons who
have fallen out of the ranks to return.
Bro. Worthington will gladly furnish
| his paper, full of Grange statistics and
Grange literature, to all who wish infor-
melton as to the progress and aims of the
Order:
DR.. J. H. CURREY, Sec'y State Grange:
Dear Sir and Bro. A few days since
| received through you commission from
our w orthy Master, Bro. Harwell, to act
as Deputy for Greene county I accept
the appointment with some hesitancy, as
feel the great responsibility resting upon
me and the difficulty that / will have to
contend with in trying to revive our Or
der here. But we have some noble mem
bers in old Greene, who wish to see the
Grange hall opened once more and the
cause Hourishing as in days gone by, and
feel that will have some worthy, ear
nest co-workers in my arduous task.
l have gone right to work, and have set
Monday, the Ist of September, for our
members to meet in Greeneville and dis
cuss the prospects and propriety of organ
izing a big live central Grange here at the
center Of our county. My idea is to con-
solidate the live, earnest members of the
twenty Subordinate Oranges that we for
merly had into one good, strong County
Grange until we get ourselves into good
working order, and then, if practicable
and desirable, work from this standpoint
OF foundation, to re- establish our Subor-
dinate Oranges. We will require some
thing strong and tangible before we can
get our people together in good work
ing order again. Can YOU not send our
Worthy Lecturer of the State Grange to
be 7vith as on that day. We need help,
and as "a prophet is not without honor
save in his own country" some stranger
and high official could do us much good.
l have ever felt an earnest desire to see
our noble Order carry its standard trium-
phantly forward to the very ultima thule
of its grandest conceptions, and hope the
day is not far distant when / shall be able
to realize the fact.
Have you any statistics or matter of
any kind that would be interesting and
encouraging to our members, that could
furnish them on the day we meet?
Fraternally, A. F. NAFF.

Ibis number of seTHE PATRON OF

Grange in Tennessee, by order of the Elk
ecutivc Committee of the State Grange of

the articles in this column read to their

The progress of the Order in Tennessee
will be noted in this paper from time to

are inserted, the Executive Committee
will order copy to be mailed to each
Subordinate Grange in the State.
Each Grange, however, is urged to sa6-

THE WORK OF RE-ORGANIZA-
TION-LET IT COMMENCE NOW.
The future of the Order in Tennessee
depends to very considerable extent up
on the efficiency of our Deputies. 1t is in
their power, by we'll directed, active eff
forts, to restore the Order in their several
counties. They are presumed to be &C
quainted within their jurisdictions They
have been duly commissioned by the Wor-
thy Master as his representatives: he con-
fides to them the responsible and impor-
tant duty of maintaining and upholding
the Order. Will they prove recreant to
this trust? If each will resolve to go ear
nestly to work, the final success of the
Grange can be confidently predicted. The
whole State can be thoroughly canvassed
and most satisfactory results obtained by
a Deputy of each County devoting one
month or even less to the work of re-or-
ganization. We therefore propose that
each Deputy, as soon as tie reads this arti-
Gle, make out a list of appointments
for September and October to meet the
people, publicly or otherwise, for the pur-
pose of advocating resuscitation of our
Order. Let the Deputy impress upon his
| hearers the necessity as we'll as value OF
| the Order to the farmers'of our State. AT
the close of his talk, let him organize a
Grange, or if there be a dormant Grange
in the locality, let him re-organize that
Don't put off to another day, but go
ahead and set them to working, money or
no money. AS soon as that Grange is es-
tablished and fully Instructed, go at once
to your next appointment, and, if conve-
nient, take some of the members of the
Grange just instituted with you. Be care
full, however, to have all your appoint.
ments thoroughly advertised, SO good
attendance will be secured. -
Now, cannot our Deputies take advan-
tage of the lull in political excitement this
fall and with ore accord inaugurate thor
ough canvass of their respective counties;
Commence Sept. 18th or 22d, and make
your appointments to visit all portions OF
your county. Deputies can appoint and
secure the aid of Assistant Deputies, and
should call upon working Oranges to JOIN
| with them in determined effort to rouse
our people to their true interests.
In conclusion, we would be pleased te
have each Deputy correspond with the
Secretary of the State Grange fully and
freely, and through him report the result
of their labors in this paper.
! The Master, Overseer, and Lecturer. o.
the State Grange will, we presume, en-
gage earnestly in this proposed work
The eyes of the Order are upon our lead
ers: and the good to be accomplished viii
we trust. cheer them on to victory.

Our Grange, after state of inactivity
for long time, has resuscitated, and, at
present, seems to be alive to the great
work devolving upon us. "~-@
We have an idea of resolving the entire
body into the following committees, pro-
vided you do not think it will prove detri-
mental to the cause, namely:
Ist. Agriculture.
I'd. Northumberland branch which is
inseparable to the farm.
Sd. Stock raising.
9TH Horticulture, Cookery, Poultry, etc.
9Th Sick and distressed.
We also aim to organize vocal music
class, and perhaps one two other COM
rnittees, if the interest demands them.
Our object is, to give every member
work, and thereby secure individual int
rest and individual responsibility.
