HOW THEY FIGHT THE GRANGE.

HOW THEY FIGHT THE GRANGE.
The merchants and manufacturing and
other corporations are always on the alert
to strike the Grange blow. They have
never relented one moment in their war
upon the Order. Their most effective
Weapons are those pretended agricultural
papers owned by wealthy corporations
and published simply as advertising me-
diums at low subscription prices. These
papers are very earnest advocates of the
farmers clubs in place of the Grange.
They know full we'll that if they could su-
percede the Grange with the old farmers
clubs, they would soon have the farmers
again in their power.
Prominent among these pretended agri-
cultural prpers is the Farm and Home,
published at Louisville, KY, and owned
By plow manufacturing company-Av-
cry & Co. That paper is an enemy of the
Strange. The firm was publicly denounced
By Kentucky Grange in 1877 for refus-
ing to deal with Oranges. While the Farm
bid Home is opposed to the Order, it
counts its subscribers among the farmers
of the Sonth by the tens of thousands. Its
columns are filled with the advertisements
81 other manufacturers, all of whom de-
i've their support mainly from the farm
ers, yet not one of them would Patronlze
i Grange journal to the extent of dollar.
Another paper of this class is the Racine
IWisconsin) AericuIt~riSt, which is
also owned by wealthy corporation. 1t
urges the farmers to return to the old tar
ners club system as the best form of or
ganizaton for them. That paper is sent
put to farmers by the city merchants IN
Immense numbers. The farmer who re-
ceives and reads these papers will soon
End himself either Indifferent to the Order
or arrayed with its enemies against IT. In
Deed, such papers received in farmer
home are simply badges of slavery to
Glasses that are robbing and depressing
him and his family through his ignorance
The merchants and manufacturers who
publish or sustain such papers as the
Farm and Home and Wisconsin A,9vicuE
furiSt, dread the circulation of sound
Grange papers among the farmers for the
Teason that they are opposed to any change
in the business system Of the country, ano
to any organization or paper that seeks te
enlighten the farmers upon such matters
We have made several efforts during the
present year to secure advertisements fo
The PATRON from manufacturers of farm
implements, etc, whose dealings are di
rectly with farmers, but have failed IL
every instance. These manufacturing
companies advertise literally in agrlcul
tural and political papers to catch the pa
tronage of farmers, but they will hav
nothing to do with Grange journal
that honestly and fearlessly advocate tn
principles and measures of the Order.

REDICTION

The increase of membership and real
progress in the Grange the coming year
will be just what we make it. There is
not one earnest Patron who cannot add,
at least one more to the Order, or who
cannot add to and largely increase the in
terest by working for the circulation of
Grange papers. We hear a good deal
about the opposition of other classes, but
our own apathy and difference are our
deadliest foes. If we can kill these we
need not fear anything else.

The farmers of Georgia seem to be get

Every earnest member of the Order
who receives this copy of THE PArRoN
can easily induce five or more of his friends
TO subscribe for it. If he will consider
that the press devoted exclusively to the
interests of the Grange is its strongest
support, and that his interests will be di
rectly and benefcially affected by the sue
cess of the Grange, he will surely make
the effort

THE PATRON is now one of the most
widely circulated journals in the South.
1t has subscribers in every Southern State
except North Carolina and Kentucky, and
one,of its largest clubs is at Alfalfa, Florida.
It's circulation is now increasing more
rapidly in Tennessee than any other State.

The members of the Order in those
States whose State Oranges meet in De-
cember, should take immediate steps to
secure full attendance of delegates. The
Order is gaining strength in most of the
States, and there seems to be a general
awakening of farmers to the importance
of sustaining the Grange and making it
more efficient. Full meetings of the State
Oranges would have a good moral effect
at tlaio tirsao,- not only in giving foIn ara
force to this sentiment but greater weight
to the measures that will be adopted for
the good Of the Order. We need able,
active, earnest men to devote their time
exclusively to thorough canyass of the
States, and where the Masters of State
Oranges can engage in this work, they
are the men that should be called to it.
We hope there will be movement in
every county to send delegates to the ap-
preaching meetings of the State Oranges.
