portatiee to the common people of
of the State than that of universal
education and that the school law
should be so amended that the sys~
tenn be maintained by the use of the
full amount under the constitutional
limit; and the rule for the disburse
ment of the same be so changed
that those included within the prop
er ages may receive the full benefit
of said funds. Your Committee is
also impressed with the belief that
as agriculture is the chief source of
all our wealth, that it is the duty of
the Legislature to foster and to
encourage agricultural education
among the people, and especially
to provide for and regulate the So
called Agricultural and Mechanical
College at Bryan, that the true in
tent ard spirit of the Act creating
the same may be carried out strictly,
so that the youths of the State may
be furnished the means at home OF
obtaining that information SO essen
tial to the growth and prosperity of
the country. We would also re-
commend for your consideration,
the propriety of establishing by
legislative authority, an Agricul-
tural Department or Bureau for the
State, and placing over it super
intendent whose duty it shall be,
with the aid of certain assistants,
to determine with certainty the
quality and value of the many min
eral deposits known to exist within
the State; the composition and fer
tility of the soil, also the poisonous
substances in the soil that so mate
rally diminishes the annual yield of
our staple product (the dying of
cotton) the value of our vegetable
productions, and forest growths,
mineral waters, etc.. so that, not
only our own people but the world
may know what an empire of
wealth the Lone Star State may be-
come when properly and fully de-
veloped.
And finally, the Committee feels
that it can congratulate the Order
upon its present condition. AL
though not as prosperous as it once
was, nor as we desire It should be,
there are unmistakable signs of a
reaction and revival of the work
in many localities, and the only
thing now necessary, that we may
realize our fondest hopes, is, that
every member do his whole duty as
a Patron, and our former strength
and prosperity can and will be re-
gained. Respectfully,

The Future of the Telephone.

In its infancy, with the inertia of
custom to overcome, the system has
developed capacity for growth
that has distanced the expectation
of the most sanguine, and its utility
as we'll as its capacity for further
development increases with every
new wire, more especially with
every new connecting link between
central stations. Who, then, can
have courage to predict even the
immediate future of the system, or
70 attempt to forecast the social and
commercial changes which the an
Inhalation of time and trouble, and
the doing away with the mediation
of forgetful or erring servants, will
bring in their train? Soon it will
be the rule and not the exception
for business houses, indeed, for the
dwellings of all well to-do people
as well, to be interlocked by the
telephone exchange, not merely in
our cities but in all outlying regions.
The result can be nothing less than
a new organization of society, a
state of things in which every indi-
yidual, however secluded, will have
at call every other individual in the
community, to the saving of no end
of social and business complica-
tions, of needless going to and fro,
of disappointments, delays, and a
countless host of those great and
little n,annoyances' which go so
far under present conditions to make
/ life aborious and unsatisfactory.

scattered members of civilized com.

The patron of husbandry. (Columbus, Miss.) 1875-1883, 1880-06-26

The following is an extract from
a speech recently delivered in the
United States Senate by Senator
Window, of Minnesota:
"Within the past few years the
farmers of this country have united,
imperfectly as yet, it is true, except
as to the Grangers, but in general
determination that this Department
shall receive a much greater degree
of consideration than has heretofore
been awarded. And they are
urgent that it shall receive such in
creased appropriations as shall in
crease its benefits and enlarge its
capacity for good in some degree
commensurate with the importance
of the industry which it is destined
to foster. They also believe that
this Department should be dignifed
with more prominent place in the
Government, and that the benefits
which it dispenses should not be
made source of political or parti-
zen advantage, but be devoted ex-
clusively to the promotion of the in
dustrial interests of the whole peo-
pie.
'In short, they believe that its
powers to benefit the country should
be enlarged by appropriations COM
mensurate with the work it has
to do; that the scientific force should
be increased and properly paid; that
the means for proper and needed
scientific experiments, SO necessary
in this day of improved agriculture,
and which the Government alone
can undertake with probability OF
success, should be afforded. That
these demands are just and proper
must be apparent, and that they will
be complied with is as certain as
that the Government shall endure
and the farmers of the country con.
tinue to appreciate the justice OF
their claims and their undoubted
power to enforce them.

commended by the National Grange

commended by the National Grange
and which is destined to be estab-
lished and practiced in every neigh
borhood where farmers have the in
telligence and the public spirit to
act together for their common good;
and above all, to urge with all our
might that the Grange take hold of
the common schools and control
them fully, that the children of
farmers may be SO educated that
they will be as well prepared for
the work of the farm as the children
of lawyers, merchants, etc, are for
the various professions and trades
of the towns.
We believe that there are Patrons
enough in the Southwest-men and
women who love liberty and Justice,
and whose pride for their children
is so strong as to prompt them to
labor and practice self. denial to edu-
cate and elevate them, and who will
stand by and fight under the Grange
flag to the last-not only to sustain
The PATRON, but to make it the
leading Weekly journal in our sec
ton. A few thoughtless, ignorant
Patrons may drop out of the ranks
Of its friends and supporters, but
every day brings new friends, and
most of its old supporters who be
lieve that their interests will be
promoted by its success are working
for it with a zeal that promises the
most splendid results.
Let the friends of THE PATRON
every where be up and doing; let
them urge their friends and neigh
bors to subscribe for it-not as an
agricultural, political, or general
newspaper-but as GRANGE
JOURNAL, pure and simple, that is
laboring with an eye single to the
success of the Grange-the grandest
and noblest popular organization
that has home on American soil.

country is but question of time.
10 give cooperation full force and
effect, every farmer should join the
Grange, for it is most effective when
backed by full Oranges and its ben
efits and advantages are more imme
diate and lasting.
The patron of husbandry. (Columbus, Miss.) 1875-1883, 1880-06-26

An esteemed correspondent in
South Mississippi, who has been
trying to raise club and to induce
some old subscribers to renew. in
forms us that there is considerable
opposition to TIE PATRON because
it is filled with Grange reading;
that if half or two thirds of its
space was devoted to general news,
ETC., he could quadruple the present
circulation of the paper in his
county.
We have occasionally during the
past few years, been urged to change
the character of the paper, to give
more attention to news, agriculture,
politics, etc, which would in effect
make the Grange matter of sec
ondary importance. To all these
suggestions we have returned the
simple reply that THE PATRON is
Grange journal, devoted exclusively
to the interests of the Order, and
that it was established and is con-
Quoted for the single purpose of
aiding as far as it can in building
up and perpetuating the Grange
organization. 1t has no other OBJ
iect in view, and nothing can in
duce us to turn from the plain path
of duty.
1t has been urged that the paper
would be far more profitable if it
gave less attention to the Grange
and more to other matters. Possibly
so. But if we are to make money
only by changing the character and
purposes of the paper, then we will
do without it. The Grange colors
at our mast head will never be low
cred; THE PATRON will never
abandon principle for expedlency,
and if it is to fall because members
of the Order will not sustain it as a
straight-out Grange journal, then il
will go down with IFS colors flying
and drums beating.
But what must be thought of the
Patron of Husbandry who can re-
fuse to pay the pitiful sum of less
than tzVo cents a zVeek for a paper
devoted to the best interests of his
class, because it does not come up
to the standard of general news
paper? Is it at all to be wondered
at that the Grange is retrograding
in some localities where members
feel so little interest in the cause as
to be unwilling to study its princi-
pies and keep up with its progress?
and is it surprising that there are SO
many farmers trucking to the law
yers and merchants and willing that
they and their families shall con-
tinue to occupy a subordinate posi-
ton socially, politically and indus
trially?
The truth is, the farmer who can
not become intensely interested in
the Grange is simply incapable OF
understanding and appreciating the
grandeur of its principles and pur-
poses, and is unable to see and
understand, however much he
may feel, how he, his family
and his class are robbed and
oppressed by the comparatively few
whose power is the natural result OF
organization. Such men, If they
could but look at their surroundings
with the eye of intelligence, would
place far less value upon the sensa-
tional news of the day and the po-
litical information they get from the
political press. 81. t.,a !
We intend to make The PATRON
a stronger advocate of Grange prin-
ciples than ever, if possible; to adj
vocate with yet greater zeal and
earnestness the system Of CO. opera
