ReUtetD
GRANGE AND SCHOOL.
Duty of Patrons to Promote Education
and Kindred Interests.

The grange of all agricultural organ
cations should have vital interest in
bur rural schools. 1t Is the champion
bf rural progress and Of better educa-
hon. Its influence in not only actively
urging the adoption of modern educa-
tional methods and reforms, but in
treating the progressive rural spirit is
the greatest influence that can be
brought to bear in the interest Of i'm
proved schools and better school sur
roundings in very many rural commu-
mites. 1t is therefore under a certain
obligation to use that influence as best
It can for the community.
The grange should see to it that a
teacher is employed especially in the
strictly rural districts, who is in SYM
pathy with farm interests. who has a
good knowledge of at least the rudi-
ments of agriculture and who also has
some knowledge of the work that the
farmers children are supposed to do in
later life and who will cooperate with
the grange in the general interests of
the community. A course of study
that does not include instruction in
agriculture and the so called nature
studies is not the course Of study de-
handed by the times.
Many teachers have not had the
training which Will enable them to i'm
part instruction even in the most rudi-
mentary branches of agriculture, but
the grange can greatly assist such
teachers by securing practical agricul-
tural talks for the school and by rem
dering the required assistance in many
ways that will tend to make her work
more efficient. The grange should also
have a standard for hygienic condi-
tons, pleasant environment and. above
all, should seek to inculcate a happy
spirit of cooperation among teacher,
pupils and the community generally.
In a score of ways it can determine the
character of the instruction given, and
so, in a measure at least, the charac-
ter of the pupils who attend upon that
instruction. and in so doing will help
to determine the character of the COM
munity in which the school exists.
This Is true The kind Of school a
VI may nave QcptuuS
on the people of that community. The
community ideal will determine this
matter in the last analysis. What a
district wants. and wants hard, is pre-
cisely what that district IS sure to have
sooner or later. The standard of the
school will be just as high. and in ev-
cry respect, as the combined wisdom
Dot
hence an increasing interest must CEN
ter in the affairs of the school, and to
promote this interest is the paramount
duty of the grange and every member
of it.

Following IN an extract from an ar
ticle in the current issue of Farm and
Fireside entitled "Chick Safety in Hot
Weather.:
Extreme hot weather is worse foe
to chicks of from two to four weeks
old than extreme cold. They should
never be left at that age after June
comes in without accessible shade, as
the day may suddenly turn hot, and a
few hours exposure will often upset
the condition of a whole flock, if it
does not kill some outright. A double
row of grain-sacks hung on the netting
affords very good shade. They may
be pinned on with fivepenny nails in a
few minutes so as to stay all the sea-
son. Cold water dashed on them in
the heat of the day will add to their
effectiveness. 1t is good plan, during
long dry spells, to turn down a few
pals of water in the yards. After it
settles away the chicks will be seen
burrowing luXuriously in the moist
earth. Another help, especially in
sandy yards, is to spade up the soil
frequently. This not only adds to the
GOODNESS, bat if little grain be worke

and -, are well under way and Secre-
tary Fred L. Davis gives notice that
the event will surpass all previous en-
deavors.
1t will interest lovers of trotting to
know that this early a much larger
number of entries has been made in
every class than in any past year and
that they continue to come in in every
mail. Secretary Davis anticipates that
the trotting features will be one of the
strong features of the fair.
The farmers of Vermont in large
numbers are out for the liberal prizes
offered in the cattle, sheep, and swine
departments, the entries that have
been made up to this time showing a
much larger number of entries from
Vermont farmers.

OREGON STATE GRANGE.
The Forteth Annual Session Held at
Albany, Ore, In Mayo. E.
Spence Master

Oregon is one of the few states that
hold their annual meetings early in the
year. While Oregon is one of the
smaller grange states. it is one of the
most active and efficient. Twenty-nine
counties are now organized, with 1873
oranges in good standing. The total
membership is 1912. and the total of
moneys received the past year was
$4,000. National Master Wilson was
present and made a ringing grange
speech. 1t is the first time that he has
visited any of the far western state
oranges while in session.
Among the resolutions considered by
the state grange the following are
most important: Favorlng the use Of
soldiers from the regular army in the
protection of the national forests; ia
voring a state industrial school for
girls and the Introduction of the study
of domestic science in the public
schools; favoring the loaning of United
States postal deposit money to holders
of real estate at 4 per cent on half
the appraised value of the land. The
committee on legislation reported in
favor of abolishing the state senate,
and this resolution brought out con-
siderable discussion, but when the vote
was taken only eleven votes in opposi-
ton to the proposition appeared. Just
what would happen If the oranges Of
the eastern states should get a like
idea into their heads can be we'll
imagined. But the idea seems to be
very popular in Oregon. An amend
ment to the bylaws was proposed to
the effect that the referendum privi-
lege should be granted to the members
of the Order on actions of the state
grange on any measure that might
come before 1t. 1t was discussed at
great length and was finally adopted.
The sixth degree was conferred on a
class of 11S candidates. No officers
were elected this year but one member
Of the executive committee, G. l..
Shaw. The next annual meeting will
be held at Monmouth, Ore.

But once in long while, under certain
rare conditions, it does act this way and

There is a scientific reason for its
action. Gunpowder, dynamite and
other recognized explosives are all cap
able of suddenly releasing enormous
power because they combine in close
proximity finely divided carbon with
exactly the necessary quantity of oXy-
