purposes will be awarded to the
participants.
Prof. Dunn's latin class has
increased from one to seven pu-
pills and he is planning to have
them enter the state rally.

Assailing the liquor traffic and
state grange officers who use their
Offices to further the political aspira-
tions, Ingham County Pomona grange
while in session recently, adopted
resolutions strongly condemning both
conditions.
A campaign to place Ingham county
in the "dry" column next spring was
Endorsed in the first resolution. Not
only was the liquor traffic condemned
but the grangers declared that the
farmer who is the producer of the
grain from which the liquor is made
is least benefited by the liquor indus
try. The resolutions declared that the
traffic paid less for the raw material
in proportion to its price for the fin
ished product than any business.
The resolution adopted condemning
the mixing of politics with grange af-
fairs instructed the delegates to the
state grange to make an effort to Sc
cure an amendment to the orders by
laws prohibiting any state grange Of
ficer from becoming a candidate for
state or national office unless he first
forfeits his office in the grange. The
resolution declares that the danger
lies in the grange officer distributing
patronage among the order for politi-
cal influence.

Without in any way detracting
from the power of the master the
writer wishes to call attention to the
fact that the most important office in
the Grange is that of lecturer. The
master is necessary that there may
be a head to the organization, and a
secretary is necessary to keep the
records. With these two officers
the Grange, or in fact any organiza-
ton can proceed in a satisfactory
manner. The Grange lecturer is not
a necessity to the existence and con-
tinuation of the institution. The lee
turer is an extra; the office is one
that is found in but few institutions;
yet it is, in the last analysis, the most
important. The master insures the
life of the organization and the lee
turer makes the institution a power
in the land, a mighty force in the
evolution or social, educational, indus
trial and political conditions.
The province of the Grange lee
turer is to direct and stimulate the
intellectual activities of the members
Of the order.
The power of the lecturer lies in
questions to be considered and directs
the discussions. No person in the
organization has greater power than
this and upon no person does as great
burden rest. This officer, in a
sense is responsible for much Of the
attitude which the members of the
Grange take regarding conservation,
control Of railroads, taxation Of nat

Last September it was our good
fortune TO have a business engage
ment that took us to East Jordan. 1t
so happened that we had selected a
time when the CharlevoiX County
Agricultural society was holding
their twentv-ninth annual exhibit and
from the throng of people that was in
attendance to this county fair aroused
my curiosity. ] was inquisitive enough
to ask the newspaper friend, who was
entertaining me, what brought about
so large an attendance. His reply
was: at is due to the strong organ
ization, cooperation and a little
scheme worked out by General Man
ager, Mr.. +. b. Ward of CharlevoiX."

was good. So good that if it was
worked out in every county of our
state it would make a better and

with eagerness / listened to the story,
while he escorted me about the
grounds and through the new Educa-
tional and Fine Art Hall. He said:

ing. Nitrogen" instead of being a
mysterious something of somewhat
doubtful existence, takes on a mean
ing as definite and as concrete as
that of water. This new conception
stimulates the intelligent use of meth
DDS of obtaining the element needed.
Though all farmers now realize the
value of good barnyard manure in
maintaining the productiveness of the
soil, they are asking how and where
it can be obtained in sufficient amount
for the purpose. The supply is not
equal to the demand, they say. The
solution Of the problem is both SIM
pie and practical, namely: more live
stock and proper means of conserving
the manure from unnecessary waste.
One horse or cow for every six acres
will supply the demand.
Yes, but that introduces still an
other problem TO the poor man with
rundown place. How can he pro-
cure the live stock without the money
to buy? And how can he produce
enough feed to keep his animals the
first year or two till he should get
the benefit of them? 1t is plain that
the man without a working capital
cannot do the thing all at once; it
would require a number of years of
the most careful planning; the soil
would have to be gradually brought
to productiveness by the use of legu-
minous crops and tried-out system
of rotation, and the stock added one
by one. The boy with the farm in
view understands the situation and
has the greater part of his life to
draw upon TO work out the right bal
ance between the raising of live stock
and soil crops.
1t can be done and it must be done
if we are to feed the future genera
tons and the rapidly increasing pop
ulation of the United States. Not
long ago the bankers of one of our
great northern states were discussing
the advisability of refusing loans to
farmers who do not keep a certain
number of farm animals to keep up
the fertility Of the land, so essential
it seemed to the credit of the land
owners.
The progress we are making in ag-
ricultural education from year to year
is placing the rising generation of
farm boys and girls on a footing that
gives them a most decided advantage
Of those who have gone before. A
great success is awaiting the farm
ers of the future who will put into
practice the principles worked out by
the experts of Uncle Sans Depart
ment of Agriculture and now being
taught in our schools and institutions.

SECOND ARTICLE.

One has only to visit the county
and district fairs held throughout the
state to understand what splendid
progress is being made along agri-
cultural lines in these days. One of
the most striking features of these
exhibitions is that of the displays
made by the boys and girls. The boys
have been showing some of the best
corn ever seen-corn which, when
placed by the side of that grown by
older and more experienced farmers,
has a marked distinction of actual
superiority. Not to be outdone by
the boys, the girls have been showing
garden products and baked goods that
have called forth the admiration Of
thousands of people.
1t takes no prophet by profession to
prophesy what these exhibitions mean
for the future of our land. First of
all they mean that a generation of
new farmers with truly scientific
ideas of production is taking the place
of class who had not the benefit of
the training now offered the young
people. The older generation worked
bravely and hard against odds that
are now being removed by closer in
vestigation into the conditions of
plant growth. OF course we are mind
full of the fact that the older farm
ers took hold of the land when it was
new and fresh and contained in ap-
parently ineXhaustible quantities all
the elements of plant food. That the
supply was very limited after all, it
did not take long for them to dis
cover, but how to remedy the condi-
ton was problem which they found
it hard to solve except in a small de-
gree.
The boy is learning that by the
proper management of a single acre
of soil he can raise as much as his
father has been growing on five or
even ten acres. And do you suppose
it is a lesson that he is going to for
get when he succeeds to the owner
ship of the farm? Multiply the one
by thousands and estimate if you can
the effect upon the agricultural re-
sources of the country as whole.
To maintain the fertility of the soil
some means of replenishing the plant
food must be used, and the soil must
be kept sweet. Nothing squal to well
rotted barnyard manure has been
found for this purpose. 1t supplies
the humus, the nitrogen, the potas-
SUM, and phosphorus, and sufficient
ammonia to counteract the soil acids
constantly forming by the eXcretion
of the growing crops. The new gen.
Grafton of farmers is becoming fami-
liar with these names and their mean
