The Grange in Aroostook.
tMainp Farlnert

The recent report of ArOOStOOk PO-
,i1on:t Grange disclosed the fact that
another big Grange of that county,
Caribou-is doing an encoura ging stunt
in the line of cooperative trade. The
records state that the store Of the or
ganZation did Il sales business of over
$56 900 during 1901 with q trade stock
Of but slightly over 5000. Houlton, the
banner Grange for size in the world,
does a much heavier business, but Car
lbou is a-coming and there is no good
reason why scores more of Maine
Oranges should not get in line.

OF Putnam. Conn. 1t is expected that the
change will take place october l.
The McAuslan interests have been iden-
tilted with this store for about % years.
At that time John W McAuslan bought
MIR. McIaren's interest IN the firm OF
Leo s. McLaren. the business being con-
tinued by leo q McAuslan. After a few
years Mr., McAuslan bought Mr.. 1Ho's
interest. the Arm becoming J. w Nc
Auslan & Co The store continued unde
this name until J. ". McAuslan's death
in 1894, Then John McAuslan, father Of
the former proprietor, assumed control
and continued tho store under the name
Of John McAuslan & Co until his death
In 1896, George n. McAusian, trustee Of
the estate then took the oversight and
has continued to do so since that time
by means OF managers. The store was
incorporated In 1897 under the name Of
tllt j. w f.. MCAuSlan company.
For the past 10 years, several managers
have had control j r. T, and r. c.
Fraser were the managers from the time

Then George l.. Wltse took the store
