First Meeting Held In
New Hall.
Question Of a Farmers Combine
NJ
Question Of a Farmers Combine
Discussed.

With tbs cpe weather and the good
condition OF the roads, there was .
large attendance at the meeting Of Po-
mona grange, held at Copley last
Thursday.
1t was the first meeting held IN
the large new hall, Just completed. A
large table in tho center Of the hall
was not enough to hold all of the ex-
hibits Of fruits, flowers and grains
brought by members Of Copley grange.
They were more than rs plates Of ap-
pies, a dozen bouquets Of chrysanthe-
nuns. one OF sweet peas, fresh and un-
hurt by frost a half dozen varieties of
corn, plato Of three "Carman No. g.
potatoes, whose combined weight was
8 fDs. It was a worthy exhibit and ad-
mired by every one.
The morning session was called to
order In the fifth degree, at II o'clock
by the master, s. J. Baldwin. The re-
port of the secretary was read and the
special business Of Pomona transacted
when dinner was announced.
In the large hall on the first floor
of the new building were two long
rows of tnbles abundantly filled with
the good things to eat prepared by the
ladies of Copley grange. After being
seated around the festal board, prayer
was offered by the master.
The afternoon session was called to
order at 1 o'clock Song by the Long
family.
The committee appointed at the last
meeting to audit the books of the treas
urer and secretary, reported the books
correct, and balance IN the treasury
of 1854.
The committee on programs for the
coming year reported large numbeI
of topics and names collected, ant
that when arranged and dates Ol
holding meetings fixed, would be rendy
to 60 to the printer.
"Muck Lands" by r. J. Dallinga
was the topic on the literary pro
gram. Mr.. Dallingn is native o,
Holland, and has had much expert
ence In the management of mucl
lands, both in Holland and in Ohio
He said in part that the government
Is spending millions for the irriga
tion Of the arid west, but had neve
done anything for the thousands o
acres Of muck lands now idle tina
might be utilized.
The experiment stations, with tn
exception OF Florida, have paid n
attention to muck lands. 1t Is gener
ally believed that only celery and on
ions can be successfully grown o.
muck lands, but he has grown a larg
variety OF vegetables, and while a
Lodi, Ohio, he has raised 100 bushel
OF fpe quality potatoes on one
fourth Of an acre.
Many persons think the fertility o
muck lands is inexhaustible, but hi
experience shows that the successtu
tiuer OF such lands must Use a judi
clous combination Of manure and fe,
tilizers. Wood ashes are cspeciall
valuable and he believes lime vii
prove to be beneficial. BY careful
selection of varieties he thinks al
kinds of farm crops can I've succrss
fully grown on muck lands. One O
the greatest drawbacks is the DANCE
from frosts.

yestigation. he found that packages
could be carried for just about one
half what the express companies now
charge. The benefit and convenience
Of Postal Savings banks and Postal
checks were clearly demonstrated.
These matters are now being agitated
in Congress and the pressure will be-
come more forcible each year until
they finally become laws.
Recitation by Mrs. Chrisman.
Song by the Grange.
Papsr--"The Raising Of Calves" by
John Swigart. His method is to wean
the calf from the cow when few
days old and follow natures ways as
nearly as possible. Feed grain as
soon rs they can be taught to eat it.
He has had the best results when
kept in the barn during the hot
weather.

1.-THE Farm Home" an original
poem, descriptive Of farm life and sur
roundings. was read by Q. e. Fran
cisco.
Should Farmers Form a Comblna-
tion for Their Mutual Protection and
Benefit in Maintaining Fair and
Just Price for the Products of the
Farm?' DR.. Chapman said in part
that, In years past the Grange has
opposed anything called n trust, but
the time has come when farmers
should enter some sort Of combina-
ton. They must combine to resist
other combinations. Single individu-
ais cannot accomplish alone what they
could by combination. Manufacture
ers, by combining, can and do ask
the price of their goods. In self-de-
Tense farmers must do the same, and
demand and maintain fair and rea-
sonable prices for the products Of the
farm. Farmers can do this when they
determine that It must be done. The
power would be greater than that OF
the u. y. Steel corporation.
