GRANGE AND COUNTY FAIRS.

They Can Cooperate to the Advantage
Of Both-Work Of Some Oranges.
Recently the management of coun-
tv agricultural society in New York
state addressed communication to
every grange in its county asking how
each would cooperate to make the fa1r
more successful and invited sugges-
tions on the fair management. We
believe that every county agricultural
society has a right to thus enlist the
assistance of the grangers, and it is
their duty, because it is directly in
their line Of duty to respond cheerful
" and in some practical sort of way.
The grange should lead in any such
agricultural enterprise, and it should
assist the fair authorities in the max
ing of an educational exhibit and not
an interesting one simply. How can
they do this!
There should be grange headquar-
tiers at the fair to begin with. There
should be exhibits by subordinate or
county oranges, or both, and these ex-
hibits should be located in the same
building so that they could be easily
compared by the public. For these ex-
hibits liberal premiums should be Of
fered, even if horse race has to be
cut out of the program. There should
be boys judging contests of various
kinds. Teams Of judges could enter
from different oranges and thus incite
spirit Of fraternal rivalry. Young
men from the oranges could be readily
coached by some expert in the matter
of judging, and it matters little what
kind of judging is undertaken. Va
rious classes of live stock, grains,
fruits, vegeta bles-in fact, every de-
partment of the fair could properly
come within these judges province.
For the lower prize in judging give
free trip to the state fair, while for
the main prize there might be schol-
arship to the Agricultural college for
a short term or full term if possible.
There are many ways the grange can
actively interest itself in the fair, and
then when the fair is over let some
one or more persons explain to the
grange some of the more interesting
educational features of the exhibition.
We have not said anything about the
floral parade, which is SO attractive a
feature of some county fairs. One
county fair association in New York
state offers very liberal premiums for
decorated wagons and automobiles.
Every one who enters decorated We
hicle gets $40. and there is an addi-
tional first prize of $40 to the winner,
with other liberal prizes. On these
terms grange is sure Of something,
and it may be something very much
worth while.

The secretary of agriculture is
about to establish a department
which will be devoted to the inter-
ests Of the farmers wife. 1t is
high time she was being recognlz-
ed. The farmer, f1attered by poll
ticians as the bulwark of the ma
ton, has been receiving more and
more at the hands of Uncle Sam for
several years. But his wife, whose
modesty has prevented her from OBJ
truding herself, has stoos ed over
the hot stove three times a day,
winter and summer, and performed
all the other duties incident to her
homework, willingly, unselfishly.

more than the rather empty credit
of being somebody's wife. In a
number of states she has more ef-
fective weapon than the rolling pin

tends to use it tellingly. And there

A MASSACHUSETTS IDEA.
Agricultural Exhibit at Annual Meeting
of the State Grange.

Agricultural Exhibit at Annual Meeting
Of the State Grange.
The Massachusetts, state grange au-
thorities are certainly to be commended
for their plan to have an agricultural
and horticultural exhibition in cOnnec-
ton with the next state grange meet
ing in this city in December. 1t is not
to be an exhibit for revenue, as no
premiums will be awarded, but it is
to be strictly educational, and each de
partment will be under expert manage
ment. Each grange is to have charge
of that class of products or articles
with the production Of which its mem
bers are most familiar. This will in
sure the best possible showing in the
respective articles or products and will
familiarize the public with that which
is the best that the state can produce
This exhibit is likely to equal the ex-
cellent exhibition of fruits and vege-
tables made at the last session of the
national grange that was held in At
lantic City, N. ]. And that was simply
wonderful. In the public mind New
Jersey is capable of raising on its
sandy tracts not much else than melons
and mosquitoes. but people were con-
WINGED to the contrary when they wit
messed what the state was really pro-
ducing. So it may be with the Boston
exhibit. 1t will, we believe, open the
eyes Of Bostonians and suburbanites
as to the possibilities Of Massachu-
sets orchards and gardens and all the
agricultural resources Of the state.
There will be no trouble, we imagine,
to get the consent Of the exhibitors to
the proposition Of State Master Gard
ner and his committees, to give the
produce placed on exhibition, after the
close Of the state grange meeting, to
different charitable institutions Of Bos-
ton. It will show generous spirit on
their part. and 1t will save them the
expense Of freighting the articles back
to their homes. The date of meeting
OF the state grange is fixed for Dec. 8,
8 and 10. and the place is fremont
temple.

After waiting for two weeks
without call the young doctor who
had hung out his single" in a
country town was awakened one
night by an Old farmer who wanted
him right away for his boy, who
had been suddenly stricken with a
severe pain in the region of the
stomach. The young doctor has
tened to the house and found the
boy lying on the bed in evident pain
and surrounded by the family and
n"iehbors. He looked at the pa

impress them all with his superior

Chelsea (Me.) GRANGE Hall.

One OF the recent new grange halls
that are always an evidence Of grange
prosperity and grange permanency is
that OF Chelsea grange in Maine. For
two years the project has been under
way. The lumber was bought stand
ing in the forest. The grange men
gave their labor freely to cut it and
haul it to the mill to be sawed and
prepared for the building. They also
contributed large part of the labor
required in the erecting of the build
i.sss SO incidentally learned practical
lesson in cooperation. The new prop
erfy IS estimated to be worth $4,000.
and there is only $500 debt upon It.
Chelsea grange is not a large one, rs
members, but they are active, and the
work they have accomplished and the
spirit displayed are evidences Of en-
terprise and loyalty worthy commend
ation.

New Zealand Butter
Continued From Page One

The high tariff and the preservativ-
IS formerly used in the butter,
which are prohibited under the fed
eral food and drugs act,
New zealand manufacturers how
ever, have been posting themselves
on the food laws of the United
States, and accordingly they put up
stock for shipment here without
preservative of any sort. The but
ter is mild, slightly under sailed as
compared with the American taste,
and beautifully colored.
Approximately 5000 cubes of
New Zealand butter has been order
ed by Seattle jobbers and brokers
for distribution on this market,
most OF which is due to c, me as fast
as the steamships can bring it across
the Pacific on its thirty-day journey.
The tariff laws cut the duty on
butter from 6 to % cents per pound.
This let New Zealand stock in.
The rancher. has never realized
any profits from the high price of
butter during the high season.
These excess profits went to the
spectators, who stored it at low
price and withdrew it for sale when
the price was high enough for fat
dividends.
