PENNSYLVANIA GRANGE.

Worthy Master w. f. Hill and Es-
Unable Wife.
The state grange of Pennsylvania
has for the past five years had at its
head Mr.. w. F. Hill Of Crawford coun-
ty, a wide awake young farmer in
South Shenango township. Contrary
to the usual rule, he went from col
lege direct to life upon the farm.
Recognizing in the grange potent
factor for the farmers welfare, he
early joined grange No. S44 and has
since given to the Order his best
thought and energy. After serving
several years in the subordinate and
Pomona oranges he was in 1894 elect
ed lecturer of the Pennsylvania state
grange. In 1898 he was promoted to
the mastership of the state organiza-
ton.
The Order of Patrons of Husbandry
Is strong in the keystone State and is
highly prosperous at present. Farmers
are Joining the many oranges as never
before. The treasury shows an in
crease of nearly 100 per cent over this
time one year ago. Between $15,O00,-
boo and $2O,OO0,OOO worth of farm
property is in this state protected by
the grange insurance companies, while

the admirable trade arrangements Of
the organization enable its members
to save other thousands of dollars an
nually.
While the grange can very properly
be used to promote and advance the
home and family interests along every
avenue of need, yet the crowning value
Of the grange to its membership is in
increasing confidence in their own abil-
ity to do things and to get results.
Farmers are too apt to take somebody
elses offer as the best that can be
realized. In Pennsylvania the oranges
are learning self reliance. When dis
satisfied with the insurance rates Of
fered by the existing companies, they
went after something better and estab-
lished their own grange companies.
When dissatisfied with excessive ex-
actions by middlemen, they establish
ed business system of their own. Pa
irons are becoming more and more con-
scious of their mental development and
Of the possibilities as a united body.
They purpose using this agency to fur
ther educate and elevate the American
farmer.
The accompanying portraits of Mr..
and Mrs. Hill will especially interest
members of the order in the keystone
flora of the Pennsylvania state grange
and is now lady assistant steward of
the national grange.

The Grange and the Country Press

The Grange and the Country Press.
The New York state grange organ
lied the first grange news correspond
ence bureau in the United States. The
press correspondent presented the ad-
vantages of such correspondence at the
last meeting of the national grange,
since which time Michigan, Pennsylva-
MIA and far away California have or
ganized along similar lines to furnish
grange news items for the weeklies
and interior dailies of their respective
states. In New York state 400 papers
Ire using the monthly news bulletins
ihd in Pennsylvania about $50. This
shows that there is a demand for news
about the oranges, and what is true in
respect to the press Of the states above
named must be eqmlly true regarding
the newspapers Of sther states where
numerous oranges exist, and the vari-
GUS state grange organizations will do
well to see that thu country newspa-
pes are supplied Systematically with
such news.

Dream of Righteousness.

There is the dream of righteousness.
This is the dream of moral sentiment,
and, pursuing it, man becomes Chris
tian. So long as this hunger for some
thing better further on is passion
and the days are full Of zest and fresh
feeling, so long manhood is safe and
the life wakes in strength, but when
these ideals are dimmed, when their
outlines lose clearness, then peril draws
near. Oftentimes this deterioration is
unconscious. The soul lives by the
divine mama that falls from heaven

THE ONE WOMAN: A Story of Modern

This book will have peculiar interest

linian whose genius is recognized through
out all America and published by a lead
ing New York publishing house in which
the distinguished North Carolina writer,
Mr.. Walter H. Page, is member. There
is about as much in the appearance OF a
book as in the costuming of woman.
Mr.. Dixon is an artist in this as in other
things Every line of this book was set

a young man of ability and industry, true
to the best traditions of the State, and
gives promise of career of great useful

Of the fate of any young preacher who
is led on by socialism and other isms,
which in their first blush seem to work
for the uplift of the submerged tenth but
which in their logical working out produce
sin and death? Tom Dixon looked into the
face of evils in New York. He Numbered
against them in his pulpit. He stood
where he puts Rev. Frank Gordon until
the man of fiction leaves the only safe
path. He preached a sort of brotherhood
of man that his friends thought danger
ously approached State socialism. He had
the gift to divine the yawning chasm and
the grace to walk uprghtly. But the
temptation that assailed Rev. Frank Cor
don is a very real one-one that may
overcome any brilliant man in his posi-
ton who thinks salvation can come from
man, and who, in his contempt of worldly
church members, flies to the compan-
ionship of those whose preaching of hui
man brotherhood flowers in human de-
pravity.

JACK LONDON: AN INTERVIEW.
(Fannie X. Hamilton in The Reader for

Jack London is a genius unspolled in
the making And the making IS uncom-
monty stirring history-the story of a
young, ardent, highly-sensitive nature go
ing forth with high courage and ideals
to meet fate on equal terms. Unframed
and inexperienced. far from the great
publishing centres, with no one to give
him advice, and knowing no one who had
ever written anything or tried to publish
anything, Jack London sat down and
wrote in order to gain an experience OF his
own. Authorship on its own account
made little appeal to him. The attraction
lay in the supposed rewards of literature.
Mr. London says he developed whatever
mental power he had, to meet an economic
situation.

no income, and several mouths to feed l
had tried everywhere for work without
finding any-this was after my return

lars per thousand words. This seemed a

finished his Life of Nathaniel Macon"

only give a new impression of Macon to

will also give an interesting history of

DR.. Dodd wishes one thousand sub

The book will cost two dollars and all
who desire to secure it would do well to
write to DR.. VIM. E. Dodd, Ashland, Va,
and place an order now. He is anxious

Among the prize offers in the August
st. Nicholas departments are two espe-
cially intended to train young ireaders
powers of observation and discrimination.
The editor of Nature and Science asks
the girls and boys to send him letters
and photographs or drawings of what
they find on the beach in August. The
Books and Reading Department invites
brief articles from its readers on Some
Recent Books for Young People" The
object of this contest, aside from the train
ing of the contestants. is to learn what
books published in the last two or three
years have been enjoyed by young read
ers. The girls and boys are requested
not to name books that every one knows.
but those that should be better known.
