Over two miles of heavy cable has
been received by the Moline. East Mo
line d Watertown Railway company,
which will soon be erected as
a feed wire to give the Water
town stub of the railway more power.
so in case of emergency, when heavy
crowds are hauled, there will be
enough power to pull the cars along
at a fast speed. The feed wire now
extends from the Fifteenth street
terminal to short distance east of
the GrinnelI school house. but the eX
ira two more miles of feed wire will
carry the power on a separate wire
almost to the Watertown terminal.
Another Improvement the road has
added. is the use of powerful cleo
trio headlights. Only one has arrived
and is being used ON No. Z car, which
runs during the evening. but as soon
as the lights arrive they will be put

JUVENILE ORANGES.
How Organization May lie Effected.
Important Facts stated.

There is growing interest in the or
ganization Of Juvenile oranges. The
following facts. promulgated at the ses-
sion OF the national grange in 1890,
will be of interest:
Juvenile oranges may be organized
under such regulations as the state
grange may provide. and each Juvenile
grange shall be within the jurisdiction
and under the special charge of a sub
ordinate grange. Any master Of sub
ordinate grange may organize jul
venile grange within his jurisdiction.
Children or persons eligible 10 member
ship i'm the subordinate grange, over
eight and under fourteen years Of age,
are eligible TO membership in the jul
venile grange. The membership fee is
usually Il cents and the quarterly dues
3 cents per member, although the fees
and dues are regulated by each grange
for itself
The officers of the juvenile grange
bear the same titles as those of the
subordinate grange, with the omission
Of the steward. his duties being per
formed by the gate keeper. Each ju-
venile grange should elect n matron,
who is a member Of the subordinate
grange A Juvenile grange cannot be
organized with less than twelve per
sons. four of whom must be girls.
In organizing a Juvenile grange the
master OF the subordinate grange
should select from the children eligible
TO membership twelve of suitable age
and ability for officers. Their names
should be enrolled upon an application
form and sent To the state grange for
permission to organize, for manuals
charter. etc. The secretary of the state
grange will give information as to the
amount to be RENTED for manuals and
other supplies, and after receiving the
official authority the Juvenile grange
may be organized. The bylaws Of the
subordinate grange will govern in all
matters not provided for in the in
structions or in the manual.
The ritual work Of the juvenile grange
is uplifting and elevating in words and
sentiment. Young people usually enter
with great zest into the performance
Of their duties and become imbued with
purer thoughts and more elevating
ideas of their duties and responsible
ties i'm life

A JUST ESTIMATE
OF the Principles and Purposes of
the Grange.

The ultimate object of this organi-
Zation is for mutual instruction and
protection" 10 tighten labor by diffus-
ing a knowledge of its aims and pur
poses. To expand the mind by tracing
the beautiful laws that the great Gre
ator has established in the universe
and 10 enlarge our views of creative
wisdom and power. We are somewhat
proud of our Order, says X. T. Wheel
ock in the National Stockman, and do
not hesitate TO commend ii to our broth
or farmers for their careful and dill
gent study of its declared principles
and purposes, as something that does
concern them and ought to interest
them. The grange needs you, and. much
more, you need its help and inspiration
in your social and business connections.
You need its moral, intellectual and
educational opportunities if you are TO
keep step with progress Of the day and
do not wish to be left by the process

BILE, the best known, means OF doing II.
1t is not without money or price-hu-
manly speaking. no desirable thing is
but its cost in money and time is SO dis
proportionate to the benefits conferred
that the cost seems to be Of little mo-
ment.
The grange is past the experimental
stage. 1t Is an assured success. Its
influence is felt in our homes, on our
farms, in society. even reaching into
our legislative assemblies-local, state
and national. 1t stands upon its merits,
needs no bolstering up, asks only our
thoughtful, unbiased consideration, and
will return many times its cost TO
you In money. time and thought, pro-
vided your mind and heart are open
to receive instruction and inspiration.
In faith, in hope and in charity we
present these lines TO the farming
public, sincerely believing in the prin-
ciples herein laid down as being in
accord with the Golden Rule and tend
ing to produce the greatest good to the

reasonable enough to those who gave

was over two hours late.
Now Mr.. Mcclure of the Big Store,
as we'll as several other of our leading

they wanted to use it right away,

Such was also the experience of the

ment and started out to find Mr.. Mu.

Cole was informed that his cement
was bogus he cheerfullv refunded the
pucahse price to Mr. Mcclure with
an air of satisfaction that would dc

AS much as to say that he could sell

and he also carried piece of glass
which he stated had been cemented
with this famous composition and no
