THE VISIT OF rOOTATUCK CHANGERS.
 The members of Brookfeld Grange enjoyed very much the visit of POota- tuck, last week. The program arranged by the lecturer, Mrs l.. A. Baldwin, was both interesting and profitable, contain ing enough humOr and of the right sort to give it spice. The opening paper by fl. c. Beers on raising poultry shows what 8 young man can do when he sets himself at work to tell others what to do and how to do it. The paper of Rev Q. 0. Wright on "FamilY Jars" was char acterized by that ability and sound con- mon sense which is the strong point iu all his writings. Mrs E. l.. Johnson on "F'IOWcrs" was very able and well
 written paper, showing a good know edge of our common and many of the
 ordinarily uunotiCCd plants and flowers.
 It's tone and spirit was both eipVating and refining. The quartet pT0mi es to
 be very important feature in Grange
 entertainment. The instrumental music
 under the charge of Miss Jennie Shepar d
 was good in selection and well exvcuteG The recitatioDs and readings were in good taste and well rendered, particular lv the recitation by Mrs $. J. BOtsford, ''MOrtgage on the tarm,' which con- tained a very good point, was very per tipent and rendered with such distinct enunciatiOn and clearness of expression as to compel close attention. At the close of the program all were invited tC the Town hall where two tables were gpf tn which full justice was done by the :, Grangers present, 30 being iron | NeWtOWn.
