State Master George w. Il. Gaunt Of
New Jersey says: THE past year has
been the banner year i'll grange work
in the Garden State. Sixteen new sub
ordinate oranges have been organized
and two Pomonas, making 11S sub
ordinate and fourteen Pomona oranges.
Nearly 5000 new members have been
added to our membership, making
grand total of $4,000. Our Grange
Fire Insurance company has been stead
lily growing, giving safe protection to
our patrons. We have nearly S1S,0O0,-
600 worth of property insured. For a
number of years subordinate and Po-
mona oranges have been cooperating
In the purchase of farm supplies at
great saving. This has been. however,
of a local character. The Grange Com
mercial Exchange has been recently In
corporated with capital stock OF
S12500O, which it is expected will be
very helpful to the members of the
grange"
G. w. Peirce, state master of the Yer
mont grange, reports thirty new sub
ordinates and one Pomona organized
the past year, adding 1000 members.
Questions were freely discussed, and
education was the watchword. Agri-
culture and nature studies were being
introduced into the common schools.
The grange stood for better roads, bet
ter methods and better everything. He
will not be satisfied until there are as
many oranges in Vermont as there are
towns
G.. ID. Richardson, state master in
Massachusetts, says a great growth Is
going on with enduring results. The
problem of child education was engag-
ing the attention of Patrons in Massa-
chusetts. Growth of membership was
of little consequence unless every one
had some definite object. The grange
is winning its way to the front.
The eXemplification of the ritualistic
work was never better than this year.
The first degree was exemplitied by
New Britain Comm grange officers,
the second by a Cheshire Comm team,
the third by ladies' degree team from
1Ieene, n. H.; the fourth by a ladies'
degree team from North Brookheld,
Mass. The fifth degree was beautiful
ly presented by Central Pomona de-
gree team of Connecticut and the sixth
by the officers of the Connecticut state
grange. This work. particularly In the
lower degrees, cannot fail to be an in
splration to all who witnessed it, and
through them the various subordinate
oranges here represented will be In
cited to improvement in this very i'm
portant phase of grange work.
Governor Woodruff of Connecticut
gave an informal reception TO the ma
tional grange and visiting delegates
Just ut the close of one mornings ses-
sion. In the receiving line We're Gov
ernor and Mrs. Woodruff. Ex-Governor
and Mrs. c. J. Bell of Vermont and eX-
Governor and Mrs. \. J. Bachelor ST
New Hampshire. Several hundred
visiting Patrons took occasion to pay
their respects to the chief executive on
this occasion. Governor Woodruff is

New York stands at the front among
grange states. State Master f. n.
Godfrey reports the membership at
about $4,000. There are 659 subordi-
nate oranges, thirty-eight having been
added the past year. The Patrons
fire insurance associations are strong
factors in Il financial sense. They rep
resent nearly $100,O00,O0O of risks.
There are 172 grange halls owned In
the state, the total value being re-
ported at S343,076. Much Has been
done by the state grange in legislation
benefiting rural conditions.
State Lecturer Thompson is one of
Names enthusiastic grangers. He
says there are over 400 oranges in the
state, and over 800 Of them own their
own grange halls. which range in value
from $1,000 to $4,000 or more. A
grange of 200 members is almost GER
tain to have its own hall, and this
gives a permanence TO the grange
movement that is unquestionable. The
grange membership has Increased from
10000 to $4,000 in twelve years. The
largest grange in the state and per-
haps in the United States is Houlton
grange, with 900 members. 1t has a
grange store, which did business Of
100000 last year, and there are half
a dozen more younger stores In the
state.

Women's Woes.
Cosnecticut Women Are Finding Re-
 lief At Last

It does seem that women have more than q falr share of the aches and pains that alillct humanity; they must Keep up. v must attend to duties in spite of constantly aching backs, or headaches, dizzy spells, bearing-down pains; they must stoop over, when to stoop means torture. They must walk and bend and work With racking pains and many aches and kidney ills. Kidneys cause more suffering than any other organ of the body. Keep the kidneys well and health IS easily maintained. Read of q remedy for kidneys only, that helps and cures the kidneys and is endorsed by people you know.
 Mrs sellna Jones of 200 Main St., Ansonla, Conn.,, says: "I think if it had not been for Doan's Kidney Pills l would not be alive to-day. Seven years ago Twas in such bad condition with pains and aches across my back and other weakness that was obliged tokeep to my room, and was at times confined to my bed for six weeks before l tould get around. Seeing Doan's Kid ney Pills advertised I began taking them and inside of week the terrific bsckache, pains and soreness across the ldns and the headaches had vanished as well as the feeling of general weak ness and laDguor. The kidney weak ness was also corrected and the dizzy spells had disappeared. l strongly en- dorse the claims made for Deans Kid ney Pills"
