William B. Sands of Baltimore, was
secretary. DR.. Thomas Welsh, of Anne
Arundel county, lecturer of the Grange,
read his report, which said that there
we're thoughtful men in the Grange who
were convinced that in spite of all eff
forts, in spite of the efforts of the farm
ers' leagues, the farmers wheels, the
farmers clubs, the farmers alliances,
the Patrons Of Husbaudry and other
associations, the American farmers to-
day is lost cause. He said the shrink
age in the value of farm lands was from
twenty-five to fifty per cent; the greatest
advantage Of agriculturists is in the far
valueless as marketable commodity, in
many cases being sold for taxes. The
farmers of the best counties in the state
are not now looking for profits, bnt have
been struggling for some years to make
both ends meet, and living in hopes that
better day may come. There are hope

interest in the Grange Associations. 1t
is the mission of the Grange to bring to-
gether the farmers Of America, in order
to organize them. but above all toeducate
them, for out of the principles which are
taught in every grange hall, must OF
necessity grow godliness and patriotism
twin sisters. which are the eternal found
atoms of lasting republic. The report
was adopted, with thanks to DR.. Welsh
The treasurer's report showed $780,

showed an increase in membership. One
