blies OF the near future. The Sunday
school scholar should be taught reverence

will not weary. The following officers
were elected for the ensuing year: presi-
dent, d. w. Campbell secretary, A. W.
Spear treasurer, w. II. Hess; executive

Our town has been specially favored
with visitors the last few weeks, said visi-
tors being commercial drummcrs and po-
litical candidates with the candidates in
the lead. If we are to believe the stories
these candidates tell of each other there is
not one of them named on the tickets fitted
for the Office to which they aspire. They
are not satisfied in decrying their oppo-
nents fitness for the Office in their ability to
discharge its duties but they asperse their
personal characters and domestic affairs.
When will these would-be office holders
learn that it is not their best way to i'm
press the voters of their fitness for the Of
fee they aspire to by slandering their
opponents, but by letting the people know
that they are men and not blackguards.
The leading topics of conversation
among us are crops and politics. Many

We were asked few days ago, why
it is that the COLUMBIAN doe not publish
reports of proceedings, and other matters
of interest to the Changers. Our reply was
that we do publish all matter of the kind
that is furnished, and are always glad to
get it. Not being Grangers, however, we
must rely on the secretaries and others in
terested to supply the necessary informa-
ton. If no one takes enough interest
in the Oranges to supply the papers with
the Grange news, we cannot be expected
to manufacture 1t ourselves. We are will
ing to admit that editors know almost
everything, but not being endowed with
the gift of second sight, and not being ON
nipresent, we are unable to describe events
of which we have not heard, or to discuss
matters of which we have no information,
If the Grangers will appoint some one OF
their number to represent them in our col
umns, we shall be glad to give space to
| their contributions.

How TO DESTROY PEsTs.-As the seaso n
for various insect pests once more comes
around, it will be well to prepare for them a
fitting reception. Paris green and London
purple are cheap and effective remedies,
but their use is attended with more or less
danger. Four ounces of kerosene thor
oughly mixed with one gallon of skim
milk, or soap suds, and then added TO four
gallons of water, if applied through hose
sprinkler, will efectually dispose of the
majority of insect enemies and at the same
time involve no danger in its use. Py-
rethrum powder is an effectual insecticide
in many cases. Cabbage worms may be
disposed of by sprinkling upon them water
heated to 1870 degrees Fahr., or by spraying
on the plants mixture of 200 grains of py-
rethrum with two gallons of water
