GRANGE PRINCIPLES.
Dignity of Labor, Fair Dealing and
Good CitiEensbip.

We have nowhere seen better pres
entation of the principles and purposes
OF the grange than the following in the
American Agriculturist by Mr.. j. a.
Herr:
The character of the grange member
ship and their faith I'm the order are such
as give permanence to the organization.
The effect OF united grange effort is seen
and felt In the Legislature and other bene-
6ts secured In the interest of the farmer,
along all lines OF work. The dairyman,
the fruit grower, the stock breeder and the
poultryman have all been benefited
through the efforts of the grange. A
greater degree OF intelligence Is manifest
among the farmers as a result of grange
meetings and their outgrowth, the farm
ers' Institutes OF today. Extortion among
dealers has been checked, and cash
basis for doing business is encouraged
with beneficial results
The grange organization stands entirely
for good. The principles are dignity of la
bor, honest dealing. justice to all, courage,
temperance, thoroughness, peaceful clti-
senship, charity and unspotted character.
Can there be noblor principles than these?
The grange encourages advanced educa-
ton and seeks to elevate not only its
membership. but the community i'm which
II exists to higher plane of culture re-
nnement and social standing. Social scam
dals are seldom found within its ranks
It's teachings are Of the purest and high
est character. like that of family refine
ment and intellectually. If the grange
comes short of this. then the principles
and precepts of the order are not faith
fully observed
The benefits OF good. active working
grange are evidenced by an increased in
terest in the farm and home, a greater de-
gree of social culture and enjoyment, an
advance along the lines of higher educa-
tion and an Independence and thrift
which should be the Inheritance of every
farmer. These facts appeal to all persons
interested in agriculture. in all its varied
departments, to unite with the grange and
assist in advancing its objects as well as
to share It's benefits.

ARRANGEMENT OF HoTBED.

not less than eight horses are kept,
well fed with grain. The manure
should he piled up near the bed un-
I'll enough is ready. 1t will need "a
cord of manure for each ten or IS
sashes. If not needed Immediately,
it should be pitched over frequently,
to prevent burning. When ready the
manure should be forked into the
bed. not dumped, and well trodden
down as it is placed in the pit, until
the required amount is in place. Then
1t should be Immediately covered
with the loan and the sashes placed
on the frame. and over them the
mats, if the weather is cold
In about two days after being made
up the bed will attain its greatest
degree of heat if everything works
well, perhaps 80 to rs degrees. After
this, the heat will gradually decline,
and after four weeks will usually be
about so to 60 degrees. The deeper
the manure is packed in the bed the
higher will be the heat and the long
er will it be retained When beds are
"
is needful to make them considerably
deeper than in March and April. In
deed, after April Is heat is hardly
needed at all except for cucumbers.
The frames for hotbeds are usually
put in order in the fall before the
ground freezes, and are covered with
leaves or other litter deeply enough
to prevent freezing. Whenever they
are wanted the pit is dug out in sec
tions about six feet at a time, throw
ing back the surface loan to the
depth of six inches upon the section
already filed with manure, and then
carting away whatever more is need
ed in order to make the pit of the
required depth.
The advantages in building beds in
this manner over the method of
building them above ground are that
the manure in pit will retain its
heat better than when exposed to the
wind, and the bed will need far less wa
terins. Hotbeds thus constructed are
used for forcing winter crops of let
tuce and radishes, and for starting
seeds of tomatoes, cabbage, lettuce,
peppers, cucumbers and onions for
transplanting to the open field in
April and May. In the accompanying

The GTnngc In Minncsota.

The subordinate oranges in Mlnneso-
Ia are flourishing, and healthy growth
is everywhere manifest. There is some
opposition manifest by people who
would use the grange for their own
purpose, but faithful members are work
ing in season and out of season to block
such schemes.
1t is the farm that marks our prog
ress; it is the barometer of our prosper
fly and commands for us our proud po-
sition that we occupy among our sister
states. Farming is no longer n mere
trade, but an art requiring industry
and intelligent skill to make 1t a sue
cess. Thanks to the Order Of Patrons
of Husbandry, in Minnesota means are
provided which will enable farmers to
acquire this art and skill. Our agricul-
tural college stands at the head Of all
such institutions as to quality and ex-
tent of work.-Mrs. s. G.. Baird, Mas

AN EFFECTIVE HOTBED.
Valuable suggestions for Farmers
who Are Thinking of Giving
Gardening n Fair Trial.

The location for good hotbed
needs to be chosen with some care;
it should be sheltered by trees or by
a gaod, broad fence on the north
side. This fence should be six and one.
half feet high, and is usually built
leaning back about six inches from
perpendicular at the top so that mats,
sashes or shutters leaned up against
the fence will not SO readily bo
blown down by the wind The land
should slope little to the south or
southeast, and the beds should be
either level or of even grade from
end to end in order to run the planks
straight from one end TO the other
Th bed should face southeast. south
or southwest, according to the lay of
the land.
The best material for heat is fresh
horse manure from a stable where

THE GRANGE AT WORK.
Petitions That Filled barrels when
the Anti-o Bill Was Up.

In the year 1899, when the oleo ques-
tion was being agitatcd, the grange
thought it about time that we as an or
ganization began to do something to
protect our interests; therefore we pass
ed some resolutions that we would take
up what is known as the Grout bill and
would use the forces of organization on
Il to see what could be brought about.
Resolutions were drawn and presented
to the subordinate oranges, and 1t was
the greatest surprise the Order ever
had to know that inside of six weeks
these resolutions the replies came in
to the legislative office in Washington
In such numbers that they actually
filed barrels. Nothing from their con-
stituencies had ever caused such rev.
elation to the minds of the members Of
congress as this did, and what has been
the result? The result was that we
made a determined fight from that time
on and won. We did 1t through the
grange, the recognized farmers organ
ization. The dairymens associations
are today interested, the horticultural
societies. the department of agriculture
at Washington and in our own state
and in almost every state are working
hand in hand with the grange. 1t is
one of the most influential organiza-
tions in the country today.-E. b. Nor
ris, Master New York State Grange.

nust Spraying in Favor.

Spraying materials have been ap-
piled more or less from the first in the
form of dry powder, usually diluted
with slaked lime, flour or some other
cheap substance. This method has
generally been used in treating low
growing plants like potatoes, but in
some sections it has within the last
few years been given a wider applica-
ton and used in combating orchard
pests, 1t is highly recommended by
some of those who have adopted it,
and appears to be Of growing impor-

value in places where it is difficult to
get water for the wet method, Several
