THE HOME CIRCLE. FARMERS AND THE CENSUS.
Newtown Farmers Must Get Busy,

The Census Bureau wants the farmers of the country to do some bookkeeping between now and the 10th of next April. The experience In previous censuses has demonstrate ed that statistical information re- lating to agriculture Is not as rella- ble as it should be, because farmers as a rule do not do any bookkeeping. The enumerators who will start on their rounds the 18th of April will be under instructions to gather from the farmers accurate accounts of their operations during the year end ing December 3l. Every farmer also will be required to make an inyen- tory of the date of April 15 of all his farm possessions. The new director of the census believes that if he can persuade the farmers of the country to begin at once making note of their business for this year he will be able to get together farm statistics that will be of real value. The schedule which farmers will be asked to study will soon be distributed through farm organizations and other agencies. The country newspapers have been asked to help in apprising the farm CTS as to what will be expected of them. The schedule is divided into five parts:
 1. Personal information regarding dhe farmer.
 2. General information regarding farm acreage, values and expenses.
 3. A statement of the acreage, yield and value of all farm crops harvested in 1909 and of all animal products that is, dairy products, eggs, live stock sold, etc.
 4. An inventory of all live stock, including poultry and bees, on hand April 15.
 5. Miscellaneous information.

A great many wells are low and the need of water is very great.

Rear-Admiral Schley, who con- manded the Greedy relief expedition and is an authority on Arctic ex- ploration, says that he does not wish to criticise the action of the National geographic society, but he adds that the Danish experts are "by far the most competent of any in the world" Quite as severe as any criticism could have been is his remark that what they do mot know about polar exploration and examination of polar records no one can presume to tell them" This is humiliating, of course, to that cheap patriotism which holds on general principles that Americans must necessarily have more intelligence than foreign CTS in regard to everything. But it must De remsmt cred that through their Greenland colonies the Danes have a direct interest in the Arctic which we lack, and as Admiral Schley said in his interview, Friday, members of the Royal geographical society spend practically their lives at this sort of work. So far as he is concerned, hs says, the verdict of the Danes on Dr Cooks records will be final, and he adds emphatically: T would rather have their indorse- ment than the indorsement of any other geographical society. In fact, l would rather have their indorse- ment than the indorsement of all the other geographical societies put to- gether."

THE BENEFITS OF THE GRAIGE. Essay Written by Mn }. ?. 1ardwell and Read Before 1ootatuck Grange. last Tuesday Night by Mrs '. Mitchell.

The question is so often asked "How would it benefit me if joined the Granger" And 50 many criticisms arc made by those outside the Order, that I will make tho attempt in a small way to give few benefits de- rived and make some suggestions relative to Grange work.
 In the first place the Grange is in- tended to be "a farmers school, whore tho mind and heart can be cultured, the vision broadsned and life made worth the living"
 One of our stats oflcers has said, When we sssths peanut hunt, whist or euchrs and the midnight dance prominent in Grange work we ton- clude that the purpose of tho Order is poorly understood" A social enter tainment is all right in its place, con- sisting of whatever good committee may deem wise to have, but l an not here to discuss social evil, advocate what is right and what is wrong along that line, but l do wish ts say that a peanut hunt, or game of whist, at social entertainment of the Grange, is no more a part of Grange work than the same thing at a church social is part of the church work, and if any Grange has made the dance or games of amusement the principal or prominent part of their regular meetings it is only question of time, and quick time, too, when that Grange will cease 's be.
 Because our school days are over it is no reason why we should cease to grow in knowledge. We must first have a desire for improvement before we seek for it, but if we have that uesire the Grange is an oppor- tunity we should embrace to help us to progress and not fall backward in the education we have already obtained. If we are members of the Grange and are not doing this I can assure you the trouble is with our selves. If we would continue ouI subordinate and Pomona Oranges and stand for what the Grange repre- sents when we become a member of

The sav- ing would easily be sufficient in a few years to pay for the entire cost of the outfit The boilers at present manufactured for heating both by steam and hot water systems by the leading American manufacturer in this line, are exceedingly efficient, occupy small space and do not easily get out of repair. Ideal-American boilers and radiators are much simp- Ter to operate than most people imag- inc, while to the housekeeper either steam or hot water heating means an immense improvement in point of cleanliness, since the rooms are free from dust and dirt such as are un- avoidable with stoves and other types of hot air heaters.

 And such members can reltelate the words of | minister in the cast ern part of the state, who was inc stalled as chaplain of Grange. He was q friend of the ntt'e master ind once his pastor, but not a member of the Grange at that llm'. Referring to that he said, .i l had been l should have been a better man, bet ter pastor, and done more for the town" and he added, "i have never found better helpers In church work than In the Grange. 6. M. r. Gaunt says: "fhe subordinate Grange IS the basis stone of our order and without which we conld not succeed. 1t Is ths strong link in the chain that binds this great far ers orgapiGa- tlon together froa ocean to ocean," would suggest that in our Oranges If we were elected to an office and ac- cept that office we should plan to be present at all meetings as far as pos sible, No Grang' can l0 good work with its officers hablt'lally absent. What a church congregation is with out its pastor, or a school without it's teavher. is a Grange without the leader or officers and in both out sub ordinate and Pol1Cna Oranges we should give more attention to rit- uallsfi' work in order to convey the beaui'ful lessons imparrel in the de- grces. No oTce: can give good eX- pressiCn or deliver his part in an i'm pressiye manner who has not com mitted 1t well to memory. Whatever you do, strive to do well. and to each officer I would say, dignify you po- sition, yet be humble, be courteous, and not presume too much on your position. But not on the officers alone rests the responsibility of rak- ing a good Grange Each member should contribute his or her share He should be present at the meetings and take the part assigned to him. If you once join this glorious organi- zation and would be benefited there by strive to be good worker, which means one willing to do their part, ever ready to put their shoulder to the wheel, one not easily discour- aged but always looking on the bright side, though seemingly every thing goes wrong. Ella Wheeler Wilcox says:
 "'Tis easy enough to be pleasant When life flows Dy like a song, But the man worth the while
 Is the man with smile
 When everything goes dead wrong." When serving his last year IS mas ter of the State Grange G. l.. Ladd said; "The past year has been the most successful in the history of our state organization, and there has bsen a splendid spirit of cooperation and unity in the work, and credit is due all down tho line, oven to the least in the ranks" AS the years go on may there be a reiteration of the report by each successive master Lot us continue to labor together for the good of the Grange, the town and the church, and heartily endorse the motto, "In essential unity, in non- essential liberty, in all things eharl- ty."

Buffalo is apparently to bs the next large city to follow Boston in adopting a commission form of government. The people there voted by an overwhelming majority, last week, in support rf petition to the Legislature for the grant of a com mission charter. The spread of this plan of local government among the cities of the country is the great municipal feature of the time. It is becoming no longer possible to keep count of the places taking up the plan, so rapid and widespread is the movement.
