devoting his time to farm work, nor be-
come Independent by simply improving
his system of cultivation, growing larger
crops and economizing. He must read,
think, and practice Cooperation.
What the board of trade has done for
the merchant, the Grange can do for the
farmer. The former has learned well the
lessons which organization teaches, and
has put them into practice with results
that are simply wonderful; the latter is
giving them serious attention, and, judg-
ing by the progress he is making, he viii
soon be prepared to meet his adversary
on equal terms in any field of operations
If organization and Cooperation are
good for the merchant, why are they not
good for the farmer? This is question
which every farmer not a member of the
Grange would find it profitable to con-
slider.

One of the purposes of the Order of Pa
irons of Husbandry is to promote the
thrift of the farmer How this shall be ac-
complished is for the Grange to determine
but that feature which encourages CO.
operation in buying and selling, is the
one point in the Grange that has reused
the wrath of the middlemen, and through
them others who are ineligible to mem
bership. The Grange has been ready to
explain away objections and satisfy the
community generally as to its good inten-
tons and work. While this may be we'll
enough, we prefer the more complete and
satisfactory inquiry. "What are you going
to do about it, Grange Bulletin.

NOW Is THE TIME.

The busy season of farm labor being
now about over, the farmers should at
once devise means for the profitable use of
their time during the winter months. Now
is the time to look after the farmers or
CARNATIONS, and to infuse new life and
energy into them and make them eftec-
tive. If the farmers will take this matter in
hand at once, and go at it determined to
make their organization effective, they
will through them be enabled to confer
large benefits on all concerned. Without
manly effort put forth at once these or
CARNATIONS will langush and soon pass
out of existence, and then when it is too
late the farmers will wake up to a lively
sense ofopportunities lost and which can
not be regained during this generation

A direct influence the Grange has excl
ted is, in diffusing more general taste for
reading, not particularly of books, but of
newspapers and agricultural journals The
Grange making agriculture its leading in
terest, exerts power in that direction
hardly contemplated by the parties con-
cerned, and manifests itself in more gen.
eral support of the farm paper. 1t has also
brought into existence the Grange news

progress of the Order. That its influence
will stop with the farm and the Grange
journal is not probable, but will also re-
act to the benefit of these

We give much of our space to the very
able and instructive address of Past Mas
ter D. Wyatt Aiken, of the South Caro-
lima State Grange. 1t is document that
will well repay perusal, and Lecturers of
Subordinate Oranges will find in it many
valuable facts and suggestions for lectures
to their Oranges. Past Master Aiken,
who is member of the Executive Com
nittee of the National Grange and Rep
resentative in Congress, is one of the ablest
of our leaders and has been from the starr
one of the most earnest supporters OF the
movement. His speeches and public let
tiers always attract attention.
The patron of husbandry. (Columbus, Miss.) 1875-1883, 1879-11-15

There are scores of farmers in almost
every county throughout the country who
watch the movements of the Grange with
deep interest. They may not be active
members, but they are earnest friends OF
the cause and desire its success, and are
generally ready to help those who are do
ing the active work. AS long as the true
men who are in the lead keep at their
posts, they will find support, and this
support can be made strong and efficient.
Wherever there are intelligent, reading,
thinking farmers, who were once men,
bers of the Order and studied the grand
principles upon which it is based, there
the Grange will have supporters. A
Grange may become dormant and die out;
but once its influence has been felt by a
community, it will be regarded with int
rest and affection, and it will require less
effort to restore it to life and action than
was necessary at first to establish it. The
Grange is necessity to the farmers of this
country They cannot do without it. And
as the farmers become more accustomed
to its work and see the practical results OF
its teachings and efforts in educational
and business affairs, they will naturally fall
into line and keep up with their brethren
who have not struggled from the ranks.
The patron of husbandry. (Columbus, Miss.) 1875-1883, 1879-11-15

1t has been ascertained by personal in
terviews with some eighty eight of the
principal business men of Springfield,
Mass, that seventy four of them had their
early training on the farm. From this fact
our farmer boys will see plain enough that

The force of example is shown in the action of
the Philadelphia Board of Passenger Railway
Presidents at their meeting Tuesday, when
they adopted what they styled ''the Washing
ton plan" of making exchange tickets good for
only portion OF the day. But they have not
yet concluded to apply the screws to the extent
of the new Washington plan Of compelling pas
sengers to use their transfers on the next con-
Meeting car. They only provide that an ex-
change ticket issued in the morning will not be
good in the afternoon. After educating the
people up to the acceptance OF this change, they
will probably make another turn upon the
screws and apply the full pressure of the stall

In portions OF South Carolina willow trees
grow In great abundance, and a company has
been formed and has commenced the manufac-
ture OF all kinds OF willow work from the mate
rial furnished by those trees. Hitherto most of
the willow used in this country in the manufac-
ture OF baskets, chairs baby carriages, and hun
dreds OF other useful articles has been imported,
but 1t occurred TO some enterprising individuals
to utilize the native willow and the enterprise
promises TO pay well. II was lately urged by
writer in THE STAR that the neighborhood OF
Washington was admirably adapted to the
growth OF the osier willow, and that the boys OF
the Reform School could be most advantageouSly
employed in the manufacture OF willow ware.

The fact that none of the candidates for
county offices in New York on the Tammany
ticket were born in this country Is attracting
unpleasant attention among the .tax-paying
voters In that city. 1t is not exactly reyiving
the old know-nothing feeling OF years ago, but
1t is awakening an impression that it is not per
haps the safest thing in the world to place the
whole machinery for assessing, collecting AMI
disburstng the taxes OF New York city In the
hands OF foreign born men, who as rule have
very little stake in her welfare, and who as a
general thing are merely professional Office
