For Better Telephone Service.

So extensive has become the opera
ton Of the rural telephone that bet
ter exchange service is desired In Or
der to make it more efflcie1t. A reso-
luton was adopted by the New York
state grange asking for state law
compelling all telephone companies to
receive and transmit over their lines
messages originating with competing
companies. This law Is demanded in
the interest of farmers who have rural
telephones and who cannot secure con
nection with competing lines. A SOM
liar law was asked for by the state
grange Of Maine four years ago, and it
was enacted by the legislature Of that
state and Is in force today. The law
has been tested as to its constitution
ality, and the court of appeals has de-
cided 1t constitutional.

A BUSINESS GRANGE.
Transactions Amounting to $4,000 a
Year Handled With Satisfaction.

Transactions Amounting to $4,000
Year Handled With Satisfaction.
Especial Correspondence
The business part of Monroe (N. "
grange amounts to about $4,000 per
year We do business only with the
members of the grange. The CONNER
cial secretary will take no orders from
nonmembers. We meet each Wednes
day evening When the work of the
grange reaches the order of standing
committees, the commercial secretary
reads all quotations and information
received by him during the week for
the general information of the mem-
bers. Thus the Patrons keep thor
oughly posted on prices, and, what is
perhaps more important, the CONNER
cial secretary holds the confidence of
the members.
After the reading Of the correspond
ence orders are in order and are taken
and booked. This is done by the Pa
irons remaining in their seats and
stating aloud their wants. Goods are
ordered as soon as the required guam
tity is booked. Our wants consist
mainly of feed stuffs. which we pur-
chase in all markets where price and
quality suit best We also buy. wire,
hardware, groceries, boots and shoes;
in fact, we look up anything the Pa
irons want If for nothing more than
to keep posted on prices. As soon as
the commercial secretary gets an in
voice for a car of feed he makes out
bills to the Patrons interested in the
car and presents them at the next reg
ular meeting of the grange. Under
the order of bills and accounts the
Patrons name is called, and he steps
up and pays his bill. When all have
paid, the money is passed to the treas
urer, who receipts for the same and
deposits it in the bank, where it is
ready to meet draft when car arrives.
No sight drafts are honored. When
the car arrives, the treasurer pays the
draft and notifies parties having pur-
chases (from list furnished him by
the commercial secretary that the car
will be unloaded the following day.
We have a member who delivers the
goods to the Patrons as they drive up
to the car and keeps a memorandum
of the same, which he returns to the
commercial secretary. Ne goods are
ever left over. Each transaction closes
itself when goods are delivered. Each
car is numbered, and all bills belong
ing to it carry the same number.
The expense Of running the business
end of the grange is about 25 cents per
ton or IA to ~ per cent on the bust
ness done. We need no storeroom nor
extra handling. but use the cars as our
shop. We pay one-half of per cent on
all purchases to the commercial secre-
tary, 10 cents per ton on all sacked
goods to the unloader and 211a cents per
ton to the treasurer, which is added to
the Patrons bills. Our Patrons get ev-
erything at the lowest possible price,
and yet those who do the work receive
pay for their time.

Kidney trouble causes quick or unsteady

they had heart trouble, because the heart is
