We call on our friends all over

We call on our friends all over
the State to remember that there is
a good time in store for those who
will assemble in the State Grange
on Monday, December 2rst, at
Waterville; and to remember that
the enjoyments and benefits are
alike open to all fourth degree mem
bers Of the Order. Some may think
they are too busy or that they can
not afford themselves few days for
recreation, and the enjoyment they
will certainly get from meeting with
their brothers and sisters at Water
vile next month. We call to mind
some Oranges who usually have
more or less visiting members in at
tendance at the annual meeting of
the State Grange, besides their reg
ular representatives and we have
never yet seen or heard of one who
regretted it.
It is true that persons may drive
all their faculties to the one purpose
that knows nothing but labor, and
when they are in the grave what is
there to their credit? What have
they gained for themselves or what
have theyscontributed to the happi
ness of others? Can there be any
substantial reward for incessant toll
that leaves no time for recreation?
We profess to believe in temperance
in eating and dril king and almost
everything else, why then should
we cheat ourselves out of the very
things intended as rewards for la
Dor and frugality7 Why not take
a rational viewsof life and try and
secure the blessings andrRwards due
industry and good management?
Subordinate Oranges should at once
consider the matter and see how
large a delegation they can have
present at the annual meeting this
year, and when that is over begin to
talk up and prepare for an immense
meeting next year, which if the
State Grange so decides may be
made grand encampment such as
was lately held in Missouri in con
nection with the annual meeting of
the State Grange in that State
Dirigo Rural, Maine.

Fibre from the Cotton stalk.

We had the pleasure of examin-
ing a specimen of the fibre of the
cotton stalk, prepared under new
process, which has been patented.
The sample shown US, although ia
ken from the unripe stalk, was very
strong and Iustrous, and, in our
judgment, capable of being manu-
factured not only into rope and bag
ging, but carpets and various arti-
cles of wearing apparel. This sam
pie of fibre was prepared by request
of the Agricultural Department at
Washington.
Should the result anticipated by
Mr.. Spear, the patentee, be fully
realized, it is quite certain that it
