can manufacturer. The protective
policy works as q charm, so far as nom
staples Of agriculture are concerned.
An import duty will raise the price Of
the American farmers products to the
same extent that It will raise the price
Of the American manufacturer prod
ucts, but when 1t comes to the staples
OF agriculture, the price of which is
fixed In the markets Of the world, the
protective policy falls short, and as q
result the American farmer cannot be
protected In this way. Now, the State
Grange Of Pennsylvania asks that the
same policy be adopted to keep the
prices Of American agricultural prod
ucts up to the same standard that the
prices of American manufacturers are
kept up. Now, the tariff Of our coun-
try is not uniform when you apply the
policy Of our government, for you find
that the American manufacturer can
import raw material and pay a duty
established by this country, but If he
manufactures his product AMI again
exports it, the government pays back
to him SO per cent, which is an arbl-
trsry policy Of protection.
"Now, If the American government
does that for the American msnufac-
turer, then we also ask, In the name Of
justice, that the same principle be ap-
piled to the protection Of the American
farmer. Therefore, the protective pol
Icy cannot add one cent to the price
per bushel Of wheat or barrel Of -four,
because the price Of thai product is
fixed In the markets of the world, and
q protective duty cannot enhance the
price one penny, consequently there is
nothing else to do but to apply the
same principle which you apply to the
American manufacturer, by virtually
placing bounty in some way whereby
the price might be enhanced In our own
market and protect the American
farmer against the competition Of the
cheap land and labor of the world.
This same rule applies to corn,
1t applies to cotton. The protective
policy cannot be applied as in
force In this country without apply
ing the same principle you RpplytO the
American manufacturer, and that is
what we ask. And now, not to take
up too much of your time, would ask
that Senator Brown, q member Of our
Legislative committee, be permitted to
submit the petition of the State Grange
of Pennsylvania upon this subject"
Mr.. McMillin: "If It will not inter.
fere, before he begins, would like to
ask by what method you propose to do
this, by bounty paid to the producer
Of agricultural prOductsS"
Mr.. Rhone: ga bounty paid upon
the export Of wheat will enhance the
price Of every bushsl of wheat in
American markets, because when the
foreign buyer puts up his hand at 80 !
cents the home buyer must put up his |
hand st the same price. This law is
universal, and it is well understood by |
those who deal in the products of the
staples of agriculture. Now, l would
only say this: The question may be
asked, How do you propose to raise
this revenue? When the Mckinley

What Has the Grange Done for WOman2
IA paper read by Mrs. N. W. Dupree at A
meeting OF Pomona Grange, Warren county,
Pennsylvania.
may not be able to state sll that the
Grange has done for woman; | will
simply try to indicate few points as
they appear to me.
Financially, it has probably not done
as much as in social, fraternsl and
educational way.
Socially, it is boon to the farmers
wife, as it breaks up somewhat the
monotony of life IN the country. 1t
gives her broader outlook In life to
have some interests outside her own
home-sOmething to look forward to.
1t lightens the hardest toll; it brightens
the dullest day to think that, although
we may not be able to visit our sisters
and brothers in their homes, we may
see their happy faces at the Grange.
Fraternally, the Grange helps us to
feel that we are children of one uniVer-
sal Father, that we ought to feel for
each others woes and rejoice In each
others happiness, Fraternity! The
fstherhood of God! The brotherhood
of mani Is it not a sublime and beau
tiful thought, more than worthy the
poets fancy or the artists brush, and
our most sincere and earnest efforts to
"love one another" overlooking each
others faults, remembering that we
are all human and liable to err, but
that God in his infinite mercy judges
us from the heart and not by the mis-
takes which we make.
EducstiOnslly, the Grange is a school,
and more. 1t recognizes the equality
of the sisterhood; 1t raises her to her
rightful position as the equal Of man;
it gives her the right denied her by the
country-thst of suffrage. There our
votes are counted, and they count for
as much as do those Of our brothers.
1t sounds well for the poet to say that
God has created her a little lower than
the angels. This may be true; Iwould
not be the one to dispel it. But the
cold fact remains that from time Inn
memorial she has occupied an inferior
position; has been debsrred the rights
and privileges enjoyed by her brothers;
and yet, in spite of this, she has repeat
edly demonstrated her intellectual su-
periority to man. The greatest loss
that literature has ever sustained was
the loss of the works Of a woman
Ssppho, the Greek suthoress. And it
is well-known fact that a majority of
the prizes for scholarships in the great
universities, to which she has so lately
been admitted, have been taken by
young women graduates.
Sisters, it behooVes us to learn all
that we can In the Grange, as well as
elsewhere, for every fact Is divine, and
in some way at some time we may
make use of it in our intercourse with
our fellow men.
And specially is the Grange q school
where we may learn parliamentary
rules and ussges which would be useful
in case we should emerge from our
wilderness into the promised land, po-
lidcally speaking, to which some of
our sisters aspire. / have read that

Farm Notes.

A team we'll kept testlfes to It's own
er's good sense.
Corn is not the best feed for farm
horses in hot weather.
For pruning, whatever implement is
used, it ought to be sharp.
To get rid of troublesome weeds, one
must make business Of it.
A dull plow or hoe ought never to be
seen on a well-msnsged farm.
When passing among fruit trees, a
sharp knife is handy to remove suck
ers.
Farm implements ought to be kept
all the time in the best condition for
use.
Harness ought to be kept plisble,
and little oiling occasionally is useful
for that purpose.
A good garden Is a source Of real
comfort when well managed. 1t is the
best part of the farm.
Grapes grow on shoots from last
years wood. knowledge of this fact
is helpful in pruning the vines.
Rye and corn chopped make good
feed for farm horses If mixed with
straw cut short and salted and slightly
A wound made by rubbing bark off
tree or shrub may be healed, il taken
in time, by applying grating wax and
covering with cloth.
If red clover seed is sown on suitable
ground Immediately after the last
of corn, it will be followed by
good psstursge che next spring.
To prepare ground well for garden,
it should be we'll drained, worked at
least foot In depth and mellOwed by
mixing it with old and thoroughly
rOtted bsrn-yard manure.
The Farmers Tribune tells of a crib
Of corn In Iowa, two and a half miles
from railway station, that amounted
TO 760 bushels. It was taken to Chi
,sgo and sold, netting to the owner
S62.9S. The charges for carriage, COM
etc., were $6S.3O.
When a grape vine runner, with |
Oints eight to ten inches apart, starts
10 run to the other end of the vineyard,
pinch off the leading bud, and next
winter or spring cut it back to one or
iwO joints and let it try again. These
ong, fast runners are of no use.
Last year the Missouri Experiment. |

vested July l. The peas were removed
