The National Grange held its forty-fifth
annual session last month. 1t was a
decidedly successful meeting and demon
strated most emphatically the strength
and vigor of the organization. its growing
influence and prestige. During the
year there were four hundred and thirteen
subordinate Oranges organized in twenty
nine states. This is larger number than
has been established in any previous year
since 1876. The net gain in paid mem
bership during The past year, as shown
by the treasnrer's receipts. was ". $50,
which is more than one hundrad pr
cent. increase above the net average gain
in membership for the last ten years.
The Grange has accomplished much for
agriculture. 1t can and will do much
more. No organization has rendered the
farmer greater or more merited services.
Its principles are worthy and well
founded.

An illustration of just how much graft

The marked increase in the cost Of
living in recent years has directed public
attention TO the great discrepancy be-
tween the retail prices of food stuffs paid
by the consumer, and the prices paid to
the farmers. As a remedy for what is
alleged to be the excessive profits of the
.'middleman" or dealer in farm products,
the farmers are everywhere forming, or
preparing to form, cooperative associa-
