MAINE STATE GRANGE.

The annual session of the Maine State
GRANGE. Patrons of Husbandry, was
onened in Waterville, December 18th by
State Master c. S. Stetson OF Greene.
The annual address Of State Master Stet-
son was given al the opening OF the at
tarnoon meeting. He Incorporated in his
address review of the work at the an
mail session of the national grange IN
Washington last month. He stated that
records for the present year show that
there are $4,000 patrons IN regular stand
ing. a gain of 1870 over the previous
wear. Three charters have been surren-
dered and II new oranges organized,
making a net gain of eight and net
total Of APO. Mr.. Stetson reviewed a
number of reforms which the grange, in
his opinion, should take up. He favored
cooperative life insurance and dealt with
the taxation problem, tariff laws and
postal service from the point OF view OF
the Maine farmer.
The greater part of the forenoon of
the second days session Of the State
grange was devoted to the election OF
two members of the executive committee,
the balloting for the two positions being
close and taking considerable time.
George Plummer of Charleston and L..
W. DYER of Woodfords finally won out.
State Master C. S. Stetson was called
home by the death of his mother and this
sad event cast a gloom over the remain
der of the day, expressions OF heartlest
sympathy being heard on all sides.
In the afternoon an open session was
held and was given over to Paul D. Sar-
gent State Highway Commissioner, and
D. w. King Of King road drag fame.
Commissioner Sargent made very IN
teresting address in regard to the phys
ical condition of the State highways and
then introduced Mr. King, the inventor
of the split log drag. Mr.. King com
menced his very interesting remarks with
a description of what had been accom-
plished with his wonderful invention, SO
simple in it's construction that many scott
at its utility.
Late Thursday evening, after three
days of three busy sessions, each the 35th
annual meeting of the Maine State
Grange was adjourned. The attendance
continued good to the end, although
many of the delegates and visitors de-
parted for their homes Thursday after
noon, after they had received the 1909
word and had had satisfactory inter-
view with the treasurer and executive
committee on the matter OF mlleages.
The sessions of the closing day were
devoted to all kinds of miscellaneous
business. Invitations for 1909 We're re-
ceived from Augusta, Portland and Ban
gor. Committee reports were made, re-
solutions adopted and lot of high class
entertainment was mixed in with the
serious work of the day. An impressive
memorial service was held in the after
noon. A large party went to Good WIN
Farm in the morning. In the evening
there was clearing up of odds and ends,
good speeches and good time generally.

Plans as to Enforcement Act.

Gov.-elect Bert M. Fernald is receiving
many letters from men who are advanc-
ing plans to pave the way for the repeal
of the Sturgis enforcement act and fur
nish substitute for this law which will
be satisfactory to the radical pronibitory
element in the Republican party. Mr..
Fernald has in no way indicated what he
intends to recommend along this line.
The matter, however, is giving him and
his friends considerable thought Sen
ator Staples of Washington, who will be
the Democratic leader of the upper
branch of the legislature, says he shall
introduce a bill on the first day of the
legislature for the repeal of the law.
The general expectation is that it will
be repealed early in the session.

ran II, 2S4 votes behind the 1904 mark of

the Dakota farm. They are. a most
valuable feed in the winter for dairy
cows, brood sows and young stock.
Their value is chiefly in their sue
culence, when all other feed is dry and
hard. 1t is not always the largest
roots that are the most valuable. This
is particularly true of sugar beets. The
best field roots as a rule is the one
that is the most crisp, or brittle and
sound.
To get this crispness, you must keep
the top of the ground thoroughly cul-
tivated the entire season, to insure
moisture and your land must be rich.
Rutabagas will be easiest raised on
breaking or clean sod. Kohl rabbi is
started and raised the same as cab
bage. The land for wurtzels and sug-
ar beets and pumpkins should be we'll

fall and then dished and dragged every
week next spring when dry enough,
until about May 10th or 10Th, when the
seed should be planted.
Arrangement of the Exhibit.
This must be left entirely to the
genius of the exhibitors.
Each will be afforded the same place
and opportunity to make n neat dis
play as nearly as possible.
This contest and the regulations
emanate from the Farmers Institute
Board of the state and any informa.
ton you may want in the way of select
ing, growing or preparing any of the
articles for the contest will be gladly
furnished by A. f.. Chamberlain. Sup
~erintendent, Brookings, S. d., in aC-
cord with his best judgment in this
matter.
If the boys entering the contest
would attend the short course at the
Agricultural College this winter, com
mencing the first week in January
they would be able to get much in
formation that would aid them wonder
fully in the work. Write the secre-
tary of the college for particulars.
Entries.
Entries for this contest will not close
until a week before the fair in 1909,
but must close then. Don't forget
this. The board must have some time
to arrange space for the exhibits.
If however you will notify II. F..
Haroldson, secretary, Bookings, S. D.,
just as soon as you conclude to enter
the contest, it will be appreciated and
the board can possibly assist you with
its advice from time to time. All will
be treated exactly alike.
Fruits.
We have not included II fruits
in the list for this year, owing to the
fact that there are so many new ten
ants and families in the county, but
we expect to include a few hardy var
ieties of plums and apples, currants,
gOoseberries, compass cherries, red
and black raspberries, strawberries,
j%uneberries and possibly a few other
varieties i'm two or three years, so if
you expect to continue in the contests
you had better plant some of these
fruits and take care of them. Buy
your stock at the nearest reliable nur-
sery. Avoid the man you never saw,

often as possible until time TO plant.
When ready to plant, get some little
paper sacks and number them /, =,
3, ETC., and reminder the twenty-five
ears yCu have selected, from l to %,
If that is the number you are using.
Then take ear No. l and shell off
one hundred kernels and put in sack
No. /, the hundred kernels from No.
= in sack No. . etc. until you have
one hundred good kernels from each
OF the ears in the sack of the same
number. Next be sure that the num-
bers are left on all of the ears, then
take a piece of binder twine about
two feet long and tie n a in the
middle of it, lay another on top and
tie it also and so on until you have
the whole of the twenty-five ears tied
up with the rest of the corn on them.
Hang the wires from the rafters or
joist so that the mice will not disturb
them
Take your sacks cut to the planting
ground and commence at one side,
plant the first % with n hundred
kernels from sack No. | the second
from sack No. 2, etc, until all are
planted. Better plant in row 3 feet
6 inches apart and one kernel every
two feet to get the very best results.
Now cultivate often, every week at
beast, weeds or no weeds, until the
corr is thoroughly denied. You can
go through this small patch with a hoe
in a very short time. Keep the top of
the ground loose and fine at all time.
+ you do this you will be sure of plenty
of moisture whether it rains or not.
In the fall YOU will probably find that
your best row of corr has twice as
much corn in it as the poorest ones.
First select your ears for the contest

the patch and go back to the ears you
hung up and pick out the ones of xhe
