Growth Of the Grange.

now nine oranges in the county
with a total membership of about
700 and new members are being
added at almost every meeting. c.
B. Kegly, deputy master of the
state grange, reports subordinate
grange organized with 50 charter
members, at Wilcox, ten miles
southwest Of Colfax, last week. At
the organization of this grange Pine
Grove grange of Albion exemplihed
the work i'll the first and second de-
grees, after which harvest sup
per, such as only grangers' wives
know how to prepare, was served.
The new grange is to be known as
Wilcox grange, No. I4I. The
meetings will be held in the big new
hall at Wilcox every first and third
Thursday evening in the month.
( IEwartsville grange, at Ewarts-
vile, eight miles west OF Pullman,
the oldest grange i'll the county, gave
what is believed to be the biggest
Thanksgiving dinner party ever
given in Whitman county, last
Thursday There were 1913 grown
people and nearly as many child
rem seated at long tables in the hall
erected and owned by the grange.
Turkeys, ducks, geese and chickens
were brought to the hall by dozens
and the tables were literally loaded
with good things to eat. Such an
abundance was provided that the
vast throng made but little impress
sion on the supply at dinner, and
many remained and served supper
in the hall. Then dancing began
and at midnight another supper
was served and still the food was
not all consumed. During the af-
ternoon an lmpromptu program
was rendered. There was song
by Misses Brown and Rucher; a
short talk on the grange movement
by State Lecturer II. 7. Smith, rec
itation by Kettle Young; reading by
J. S. Klemgard; recitation by Mrs.
+. Kellog; recitation by Mrs. Reno
Champion; address by O. Z. Young
and recitation by Marie Kegley,
\ The grange has passed the ex-
detrimental stage and is now regard
edsas a fixed institution. Strong
efforts will be made to prevent it
following the path of the Farmers
Alliance and kindred farmers or
ganization of the past, which were
wrecked by being converted into
political organizations. The prin-
cipal feature of the grange is social.
1t is being made beneficial to the
farmers in a great many ways, but
in a social way it has proven great
u success. At Evansville the grange
\ bought 10 acres of land, on which
it has erected fine large hall, III
which its business meetings and all
social functions of the neighbor-
hood are held Since its organiza-
ton there has been great advance
ment in a social way in that neigh
borhood. The dull life of the farm
in winter is frightened by frequent
social events held in the hall. There
are debates, literary meetings,
dances and dinner parties in which
all take part. The ground around
he hall has been planted to shade
trees and it is the intention to make
fne grove in which picnics may
be held in the summer
In business way the grange has
lone much to stimulate interest in
i've stock by giving fair and stock
how at its annual three days pic.

by the following letter to Isaac F
Moore:
1T is not probable that any of
my fathers family will ever again
live in Galena. My two brothers
having located in California, where
they have established homes; my
sister and family being in the east
and in England, and | being in the
army, 1t is not likely that any of
us children will ever go to Galena
to live.
This little house, which was the
home of my father and mother. is
of some interest as a historic relic,

to the people of Galena | wish you
TO consult the mayor of the city
and let me know if it would be pos
sible for me to deed the property
to the town, which could keep it as
an historic relic You know that
the citizens of Galena presented
this house to my father in 1865,
just after the civil war. and he and
my mother took a great deal of
pride in owning this property, and
we, his children, do not wish to sell
1t, but would like to have 1t pre-
served and have it the property

we have the warmest recollections
and among whom we passed many

If you will let me hear from you
on these points you will greatly
