Massaehusetts Auto Law..

At the annual meeting Of the Massa-
chusetts state grange to be held at
Pittsheld in December the automobile
laws Of the state Will be up for discus
sion. Senator Morse Of Belchertown, q
member OF the grange, believes that
there Is a great deal of misunderstand-
ing between those who ride in autos
and the farmers, and he proposes that
the grange appoint committee OF ten
or twelve TO confer with a like COM
mittee from the State Automobile as
sociation and see II some form OF law
satisfactory to both can be drawn up,
and If this can be done a petition will
be presented to the Massachusetts, leg
islature in January asking for leglsla-
tion. Senator Morse thinks there
should be no difficulty in getting law
enacted that will be satisfactory tC
both II the parties can unite in theiI
views as to what should be done.

THE GRANGE MOVEMENT.
The Parcels Post Plan Which tho
Grange Favors.

orange FaNors-
1t is only fair to say that Of late
years the leaders Of the grange move
ment have been farsighted and con-
servative. They have been thoroughly
convinced Of the righteousness of any
cause before they have espoused It;
but, once so convinced, they have
brought all the force Of a puissant or
ganization to bear upon the subject IN
hand and In matters Of legislation
have been most notably successful.
The rural free mail delivery system,
the interstate commerce commission.
the denatured alcohol law, - mention
no others, are achievements made pos
sible very largely by grange influence
and grange effort.
But there are other problems at hand
which the leaders Of the Order believe
to be within their provi1ce to solve or
at least to lend a hand in their solu-
tion. One Of these is TIE parcels post
question. The position Of the grange
on this subject IS this; 1t eliminates
the passenger idea entirely aud pro
poses the establishment OF a mini
mum weight parcels post, both general
and rural, to begin with a practical
minimum, increasing the package
weight by easy and experimental
stages until as perfect a system as
may be is obtained. For a general par.
cells post they would make the maxi
mum weight eleven pounds. on which
the rate would be 25 cents from any
postofice to any posto6ice in the Unit
ed States. This rate and weight are
reached by easy gradation, thus
Three ounces and under, cent; ovei
three ounces and under six, 2 cents
over six ounces and under nine,
/ cents; over nine ounces and undel
4 twelve, cents; over twelve ounces
and under one pound, 8 cents, and
cents for each additional pound o.
fraction thereof. In the rural parcels
4 post they advocate a rate Of l cent TO
one pound or less and cent for eacl
additional two pounds up to a maxi
mum Of eleven pounds. have givel
these details inasmuch as they are no
generally understood either by granger
or others.-J. w. d. in Tribune-Farm

Lieutenant Governor Chanler OF New
York Joined the Red Hook grange Of
Dutchess county at one Of its recent
meetings. He was invited to make q
little talk on the occasion, in which
he said that this grange movement is
becoming so powerful that If the farm
er wants anything that is right there
is no reason under the sun why he
cannot get It. "But without a firm and
intelligent organization, said he, you
cannot go to Albany and demand Of
the legislature that which you are en-
titled to receive. and can imagine no
greater safeguard than the presence
in Albany OF representatives of such
an organization as this that viii watch
for honest legislation in the interest
of farmers and for the welfare of the

GRANGE NATIONAL BANKS.

Grange National Bankers Association
Of America Recently Organized.
On Oct. 10 a convention was held at
winlamsport, Pa, which is the first
Of its kind and deserves more than
casual attention. 1t was the meeting
for the organization of what has been
styled as the Grange National Bank
ers' Association of America. Its OBJ
ject is to extend the system OF grange
national banks which has been so sue
cessful in Pennsylvania to other states
In the Union where the grange is or
ganized. There are now fourteen
grange banks in Pennsylvania, and
they sent seventy-five representatives
to the WilliamspOrt meeting. John @.
McHenry of Benton was elected presi-
dent Of the association and Z. R. Dor
sett of Mansfield was elected secretary.
Mr.. McHenry said that thus far they
have IN fourteen banks q total number
Of 2,100 stockholders, 165 directors and
officers, with Ss62, 600 OF money IN
vested, and in every instance the hold
ing control of these organizations lies
entirely with grange Patrons. He also
remarked that the movement is not
antagonistic to other banking institu
tions, and that this is true is shown
from the fact that while the deposits
have exceeded their expectations yei
the older banks have likewise met witt
a continuous growth in deposits. This
may seem strange, but it seems to indi
cate, says the Financial Age, that the
farming community had been averse tS
depositing money In banks and hal
been boarding 1t in different places

in coaxing these funds from their hid
ing places a benefit national In it
