THE GRANGE PICNIC
Three Sources of Profit to BE Derived
From These Summer Outings.

The grange picnic has come to occupy
sn important place in the grange cal
,ndar says State Master Fuller of New
York, and that we may get the full
benefit from this annual event it will
be we'll for Us to remember that we
may reasonably expect three sources
of profit from Il picnic-tirSt, the per
sonal benefit that comes from relaXa-
ton and rest from our strenuous farm
life; second, the educational and In
Structve benefit of the addresses and
lectures, and, third, the stimulating
eject to the Order from interesting
others in the work of the grange In
order to get the first mentioned benefit
from Il picnic we must throw off for a
day all the care and worry about our
business and come to the picnic with Il
determination to have good time. To
this end it is good idea to forget for
ever any little personal dislike we may
have for any other members of the
grange and get right up close to them
and see If we cannot discover some
lovable qualities in them. The amount
OF educational benefit to he derived
from picnic is something hard to de-
termine, but the speaker will certainly
be better able to give you something
helpful and uplifting if he is met by
somebody duly appointed for that pur-
rose and made to feel that he is vel
come and that you are glad he is there.
He will give you better address I'M
der such circumstances than he will If
he is left to browse around the woods
until time TO make his speech and then
have to talk against baseball game,
a merry 20 round and red lemonade
speel2r All these things are proper
adiuncts to Il picnic, but do not mix
we'll together. The third and last bene-
iii to be expected from the picnic, the
attraction OF those outside the gates to
join the grange, is certainly worth ca
tering to. Take some trouble to invite
those whom you think would make
good members of your grange to at
tend the picnic, and when they get
there see that they have good time.
Think about these things when you are
arranging your picnic and see If they
do not add to the enjoyment and bene-
lit of your annual outing.

uels for Congress
Always with one idea urpermost,
namely the greatest good for the
gte test number, with fairness for
all, Theodore Roosevelt has since his
succession TO the Presidency, and
since his election, been indefatigablc
in his efforts to give the people of
every section an administration that
only GROWERS and croaiers can criti-
else. His recommendation have
been carried out by Congress to an
unprecedented degree, and much re-
mains for the second session of the
Eifty-ninth Congress and the Sixth
eth Congress, which should be in
both branches Republican, in order
that the desires of the President may
be carried out to the fullest extent.
1T is reported that Attorney Gen
eral Moody is about TO bring suit for
the dissolution Of tho Standard Oil
Company, under the sherman anti
trust law. This law has been in eN-
istence for some years, and if it can
be operated with such effect it Is Il
pity that it was not done before. 1t
Is harly creditable to the legal power
of this country that predatory or
ganization that has gathered in hun
drcds of millions for its managers AT
the expense of the pablic should
have been allowed to practice its pill
lage day longer than it would
take to enforce the law. Rockcfel
ler's share of the booty should have
been cut short long ago.

of playing his position. Dumont had
eight strfkeouts 10 his credit. but was

Washington's batting was a great

the ball that way. Mil was thrown out

triple was made with two out and Cross
was forced at the plate after leading
