The Vermont watchman. [volume] (Montpelier, Vt.) 1883-1911, 1888-11-28

THE recent departure of Mr.. Arthur
A. Brigham, the late popular master of
the Massachusetts state grange, to ac-
cept the professorship Of agriculture in
the Japan agricultural college, proves
that the grange calls within its gates
some of the brightest minds in the
country The grange cannot make
brains for any one, but itcalls into &C
tivity all of the faculties of the mind
and brings the earnest, active member
to the notice of the public and mate
rally assists him in securing the posi-
ton for which he is best fitted by ma
ture and education. Mr.. Brigham is a
graduate of Massachusetts State Agri-
cultural College and is eminently fitted
for his new and responsible position.
By his resignation as master of the
state grange, II. A. Dalton, Jr., of
Dalton, becomes the acting master,
and as such represented the state grange
at the meeting of the national grange
at Topeka, Kansas.
