Grange Principles.

The principles of the Grange are
heaven born, and are the bulwarks
and guardians of freedom: founded
on the eternal principle of divine
revelation. they are a sure guaranty
or human rights; without them hu-
man governments leap into despot-
ism; with them law stands forth
to perform its high purpose, the
protection of the weak from the Op-
preston of the strong; virtue and

the glittering radiance that shines
from its shield.
The farmer needs Grange Fellow
ship; he needs its great heart to
pity; its strong hand to help, and
while there is work to do. there will
always be found in the order, the
hearts and hands to meet the ex-
igencies of the hour.
The Grange has become a great
factor in correcting the evils and in
adjusting the inequalities which ex-

which must be assumed and car

Girls and the mothers of girls
have reason to be grateful for the
introduction of the peasant type of
dress. Never have dresses required
so little work. might also say so
skill-and so little material, and
these are points of great Importance
when the school wardrobe is to be
considered. The studied simplicity
of the dresses has a decided ele-
ment Of the picturesque to add to
their other admirable qualities.
There is a side to the question that
should appeal to mothers, and that
is that the simplicity of cOnstruc-
ton makes these models excellent
examples for first lessons in dress
making. Work should be made in
teresting to the beginner; it is hard
ly probable that our grandmother's
daily stint OF hemmlng towels and
running seams awakened any parti-
cular enthusiasm for the art of
needlework. Simple stitchery was
learned, to be sure, but the needle
women developed would be but
hemmers of hens and sewers of
seams after all. Construction work
may just as well be inculcated at
the same time as the stitchery, and
the personal element will create an
interest most valuable to the lesson.
Let the seams be those of a peasant

relief in the universal Fatherhood
of God. and the eternal Brotherhood

in Agriculture and who profess a
belief in and a reliance upon the

The Grange has a place in the
history and work of great agricul-

stay. 1t has never proclaimed it
self as the sole heir of past good nor
intended to be the only repository
of human wisdom or charity. 1t
has claimed and does now claim to
be a great moral power, to be
practical weapon in the hands of a
practical and determined people
with which to meet the enemies of
the farmer and of human progress.
1t has wared against vice in
every form. Its mighty power has
never sought to shield a violator of
the public law or an enemy of the
public veal. 1t has taught its
membership that they would not be
loyal patrons unless they were
good citizens. 1t has promoted
public peace, public morality, and
public honesty. 1t has taught dig
nifty of manhood, elevated private
character, and emphasized the
value of human life, by bettering
the conditions on the farm and in
home.-E. B. Dorsett, Lecturer

Has Been Materially
Modified.

The first large shipment of cattle
from Mexico into the United States in
the vicinity of FL Pase in many weeks,
will be brought over the border the
9Th of April. There will be between 500
and 600 head of cattle in the shipment,
and they will be entered to the United
States just below Fabens.
The new law, relative to the impor-
tation of cattle from Mexico through
the quarantine district has been modi-
fled. so that cattle can. be imported
through any of the customs ports in
the quarantine district, providing there
are customs inspectors and officers at
those places. Previously the law read
that the cattle which were brought into
this district could only be entered at
the ports of Brownsville. Laredo and
