ests Of the grange and expects to or
ganize six oranges in this county
within the next 80 days.
The state has membership of 90
600. The first grange was organ
lied in Washington, D. c., in 1868
and since then the order has grown
to such proportions that it can name
it's branches in almost every section
of the United States.
The grange has been instrumental
in securing the rural free delivery
system, and in getting direct legis-

states of the union. Free denatured

oranges activities. Still other issue:
that it has taken an interest in are

merce commission.
