CONNECTICUT GRANGE.
A Fine Meeting in Woodbridge

Thursday, September 5, dawned au- | spicously for the grangers, who met in full force at Woodbridge, where New | Haven County Pomona was well repre- sented. The morning session as usual was devoted to business, and in the af- | ternoon the lecturers hour which sup plemented the banquet, was conducted by the lecturer, Mrs. c. A. D. Allen, with the usual truth loving and earnest spirit in an interesting and pleasing manner.
 Master R. O. Eaton is always in the best of spirits, and filled with eXecu- tive force which bestows itself properly on business and is a lever of power in the grange work.
 The programme was interspersed with music, making the essays and re- citations to stand out more prominent ly. Among the speakers was D. S. Waldron of Ionia, Mch., consistent granger, who spoke interestedly of his home, it's roads of travel, and fields of growth; this years shortage of apples and the early potato disappointment.
 The chapel was well filled, as the lecturers hour was an open meeting. One of the essays written by Mrs. G.. c. Lewis, president of the Matron's Exchange board, had for Its subject the Objects and Privileges of the Ma irons Exchange" and this is now an interesting feature of grange work, and the people of New Haven are giving it good support. New Haven Co. Ma tron's Exchange" was opened at the store of c. M. Hall. corner Broadway and York Square, June 19, 1901. At that time the grange matrons brought in their stores of food, which readily sold, and every day since MT. Hall has made sales for them, of edibles, the de- mand increasing daily. Now, the show cases and window and the look tempt ing indeed. Bread loaves of good size and tempting goodness; loaf cake. fruit cake, caramel, Minnehaha, and in fact all kinds of cake, cookies, pies, etc. and supply of fresh eggs can be found at the store. and the prices defy com petition. ITO live and let live" is the granger's motto. New Haven house. Keepers are appreciating this arm of grange work, and they will continue to do so.
 The happy faces of the patrons at Woodbridge, the marvellous toothsome- ness of the noon feast, told the story, which is now being often rehearsed, of how the grange has crept into home life illumined an otherwise clouded way, and Is intelligently and persist ently revealing the farmer to himself, and feeding him with power to move on in his given sWay to the sub serving purposes, still feeding the out side world as well as himself. Utiliza- tion of power united action, and strength of purpose, is the essence of true grange work everywhere.
 M. F.. l..
