The Country School.

If there is one mission more than another that the grange should accom- plish, 1t is the improvement of country schools. It is a hopeful sign that the grange as an organization Is giving so much thought and study to the prob lem of education. and the closer the grange and the school can be brought together the better for both. There are some things to teach in the schools be- sides multiplication tables and declen- sions. The American school should stand, and believe does stand, for character as well as scholarship. The ordinary people make the state, and the schoolteacher should help to mold the character of the ordinary people. Above all else let us take more inter est in the schools where our children are trained. Let us cultivate the ac- Quaintance of the teachers. Let us see to it that only teachers of ability and strong character are employed, for 1t must be the right character in the teacher that inspires the right charac- ter in the pupil.-G. A. Fuller.

The Grange In Maine.

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. It has worked for the aboli- tion of the telephone monopoly law, which has caused the organization of seventy of the local telephone compa- nies In the state.
 At present the state grange Is en- deavoring to have the taxes increased on the 9,054, 900 acres of unincorporat- ed wild lands. which are of immense value and now paying only 21s mills on dollar on the valuation of 8 per acre. Thus 1t will be seen what the grange In Maine is worth to the farm ers' interests

THE GRANGE STORE.

Has It Any Claim Thnt VIII Justify
 It's EstabIishmentf
 Sometimes those who are not mem- bers of the grange ask the question If 1t is right for the grange to start a store and thus enter into competition with stores already established, and, 1t may be, in smaller towns to crowd out the country store. The question is very well answered in the New York Farm CT, 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 granges have bought and sold, the results have been satisfactory, and nobody has been deprived of any essential moral or le- gal right.
 "The grange store Is a great thing for the farming community, and farm CTS should make free use of it. It 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 measure give the farmers just the business ideas and experience need ed to enable them to play the part in larger cooperative operations so nec- 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 S12,0o0,000.0o0 0 year for produce that gives the farmers less than $4,oO0,OO0,0O0 a year. The great difference between these great sums measures the great middleman draft and graft on the agricultural h. terest of the United States. Wherever they should reduce the draft and graft. They can do 1t 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 RECOGNIZED.
It Was the Leader In Promoting Leg islation For Denatured Alcohol.

It Was the Leader In Promoting Leg islation For Denatured Alcohol.
 The grange has the credit for the sue cessful agitation by the state granges and many subordinate granges of the question of the removal of the internal revenue tax from alcohol for industrial purposes. National Master Bachelder says with regard to 1t that while in- fiuence was exerted through other agencies, not for moment has it been denied In any quarter that the grange has been the leader in promoting this legislation, and credit is due each of the S00,000 members in the United States who has interested himself or herself in this very important matter. Especial credit Is due the masters of the various state granges for particu- larly energetic work. The result in this matter demonstrates the great influence of the grange when its mem bers are united upon q worthy object of legislation and go vigorously and cnergetically about securing 1t.
 That the grange is entitled to credit for leadership in securing this legisla- ton is Indicated by the following reso- lution adopted by the National Associa- ton of Piano Manufacturers in session in Washington, being one of a series of resolutions unanimously adopted favoring the passage of the free alco- hol bill:
 Resolved. That we extend the sincere than.-s of this association to the national grange Patrons of Husbandry. to whose intelligent and far reaching campaign of education the present favorable status of this subject in congress is very largely due.

ELECTION OF U. S. SENATORS
A Matter Tn Which the Grange Is Ac-
 lively Interested.

lively Interested.
 There is a growing interest in the matter of electing United States sen ators by popular vote. A somewhat novel feature of the recent Oregon state election was the expression by | the voters of the state of their choice for senator. The law of the state does not permit election of senators by the people, and this was simply test vote. What is most interesting is the fact that the candidate that would have been elected by the people is not the one which would have been desig- hated by the legislature. Senator Gear in is the present incumbent and was a candidate in the recent test election, but the majority of the popular vote was in favor of his adversary. The majority in the present legislature is of the same political faith as Sena- tor Gearin; consequently his election would have been assured, but in view ular opinion was against him he has advised the legislature to select his ad- versary instead.
 That the election of senators by the people will soon Be the law in many states, if not all, is quite evident Such action must be secured by an amend meht to the constitution. Already rep resentatives of nineteen states have requested congress to call a convention for the purpose of submitting a eonsti- tutional amendment a"...
 1t is we'll known by all members of the Order of Patrons of Husbandry that the popular election of senators has been one of their aims for several years. Each year the national master has asked the state organization to work to this end, and the creation of a public sentiment in favor of popular election of senators is due very large ly to the quiet work of the grange throughout various states.

Good Will farm is known by every Patron in the state of Maine. It Is supported by benevolence and is a home for about 115 boys and 35 girls at the present time. The Patrons of Maine erected what Is known as Grange cottage" on this farm, which accommodates about fifteen girls. Maine Patrons are raising scholar ship valued at $3,000, the proceeds of which are to be applied to pay ex- penses of the girls who occupy Grange cottage" The money thus contributed not only feeds, clothes and educates ole girl. but many, for as soon as one leaves another takes her place.
