THE GRANGE STORE.

Has 1t Any Claim That VIII Justify
Its Establishment.
Sometimes those who are not men,
bers of the grange ask the question if
it is right for the grange to start
store and thus enter into competition
with stores already established, and, it
may he, in smaller towns to crowd oft
the country store. The question Is very
well answered in the New York Farm
er, which proceeds to discuss it some
what at length:
IF the farmers can, by purchasing
for themselves what they have pur-
chased for years through the store and
by selling for themselves what the
store has for years sold for them, get
their purchased supplies at lower prices
and sell their own products for better
prices there is no reason why they
should not go into cooperative buying
and selling. In cases where oranges
have bought and sold, the results have
been satisfactory, and nobody has been
deprived of any essential moral or le-
gal right.
1.-THE grange store is a great thing
| for the farming community, and farm
ers should make free use of 1t. 1t can
be used to cut down costs in buying
supplies and to increase profits in sell
ing farm products. Besides this, the
management of the store by farmers
will in a measure give the farmers just
the business ideas and experience need
ed to enable them to play the part in
larger cooperative operations so nee
essary to give them a more equitable
part of the money paid by consumers
for the produce of the farms. Middle
manism is what stands today between
the farmers and prosperity. The con-
sumers pay perhaps $4,000 100000 a
year for produce that gives the farmers
less than S4,00O,00OO00 a year. The
great difference between these great
sums measures the great middleman
draft and graft on the agricultural in
terest of the United States. Wherever
and whenever the farmers can do so
they should reduce the draft and graft
They can do it by starting grange
stores, cooperative cheese, butter and
casein factories, cooperative milk con-
denseries, collecting and distributing
agencies for eggs, fruit, butter, cheese
wool, meats and other produce, coop
erative elevators and -four mills and
other establishments now controlled
exclusively by middlemen who pay to
producers and take from consumers
just what they will"

The grange in Maine has caused
laws to be enacted increasing taxes
on steam and electric railroads, trust
companies, Pullman corporations and
express, telegraph and telephone COM
panies. 1t has worked for the aboli-
ton of the telephone monopoly law,
which has caused the organization of
seventy of the local telephone compa-
MES in the state.
At present the state grange Is en-
deavoring to have the taxes increased
ON the 9,054,0 900 acres of unincorporat-
ed wild lands, which are Of immense
value and now paying only 21a mills
on dollar on the valuation of So per
acre. Thus it will be seen what the
grange in Maine Is worth to the farm
ers' interests.

In tender voice TO the stranger Whom
Fanchon had chosen should remain
nameless:
"Be sure to put some salve Oh your
hand!'
He made a bow which just missed
being too low, but did miss it.
ut is there already" he said and,
losing his courage after the bow, made
his speech with so palpable gasp be-
fore the last word that the dullest per-
son in the world could have seen that
he meant it.
Miss Betty disappeared.
There was a rgidity of expression
about the gentle mouth of Fanchon
Bareaud, which her companion did not
enjoy, as they went on their way, each
preserving an uneasy silence, until at
her own door she turned sharply upon
him. TON Vanreyel, thought you

D was ordinarily esteemed q person OF
great reserve and discretion; neverthe
less there was one man to whom he

had no secrets. He spent the noon hour
in feeble attempts to describe to Graf

seized the gentleman's arm and moved
toward the street with him as rapidly
as his perceptible reluctance to leave
permitted. But at the gate Miss Ba-
reaud turned and called back over her
shoulder, as if remembering the neces-
sity of offering an excuse for SO re-
markable a proceeding: II shall come
again very soon. Just now we are
upon an errand of great Importance.
Good day!"
Miss Betty waved her hand, staring
after them, her eyes large with won
der. She compressed her lips tightly.
"Errand" This was the friend of
childhood's happy hour and they had
not met in two years!

It was to this tableau that the lady

through the gates, where she stopped
with a discomposed countenance. AT
once, however, she advanced and, with
a cry of greeting, enveloped Miss Bet
ty in brief embrace, to the relief of
the latter's confusion. 1t was Fanchon
Bareaud, now two years emancipated
from st. Mary's and far gone in taf-
feta. With her lusterful light hair,
absent blue eyes and her gentle voice,
as small and pretty as her face and
figure, it was not too difficult to justify
Crailey Gray's characterization Of her
as one of those winsome baggages who
had made an air Of feminine helpless
ness the fashion Of the day.
"I'm so glad-gladp' exclaimed Bet
ty. "You were just coming to see me-
