Delaware State Grange.

Delaware will be the host of the
national grange next year. and it is
announced that Wilmington will be
the place of meeting. Governor Miller
addressed the state grange and ex-
pressed willingness to aid the work
of the grange as best he could. The
opening of cooperative stores in each
county was recommended, members
of the grange to get a discount on
goods purchased The grange has been
back of several important state meas
ures the past year in favoring the
erection of IAN affiliated college for
women to be built at Newark, has
urged appropriations for Delaware col
lege and has favored the bills for aid
to the state board of education. The
grange insurance company carries 3d.
100000 in insurance on grangers' prop
erty at q cost to the insured of about
$3.50 on the $1,000. There are only
forty-one oranges In Delaware. with
about 2.400 members.

MEETINGS.
Ohio Does Not Favor the Corn

Delaware Will Entertain the National
Grange Next Year - New Jersey
Wants Change In Educational Meth
DDS and Would Increase the License
Fees of Automobilists
Several of the smaller state oranges
held their annual sessions in Deem
Der. and the chief facts of interest to
the public have been condensed in the
following paragraphs:
In Ohio one might have thought that
an adjourned session of the national
grange was on so strenuous seemed it.
National Secretary Freeman started
the ball rolling with some very plain
language in his public speech about
Secretary of Agriculture Houston.
What the national grange special COM
mittee said about the secretary wasn't
'in it, with what Mr.. Freeman had to
say. And he likewise paid his respects
to Governor Cox in plain terms. The
Ohio grange threw cold water, real ice
water, on Secretary Sandles' pet corn
boys junket to Washington and pro-
posed that the money thus used might
better be expended in sending the farm
boys and girls to the state university
for course in manual training and
domestic science. The grange also OPP
posed the minimum wage law and any
limitation of working hours for men
and women as tending to the increase
of the cost of living. 1t was thought
that these matters should be left to
private arrangement. The Warnes
law which seeks to reform certain
Ors appointive instead of elective, was
opposed. The grange also wanted the
restrictions upon the initiative and ref
erendum removed to the end that vot-
ers may use it when desired. Central
lied schools were Endorsed for such
townships as can adopt the plan to adj
vantage The no free pass rule in rela-
ton to admission to the state fair the
grange desired to have enforced with
out favor. Relative to farm credits, it
legislation for such credits should be
of national character. with the state
as unit and with government control
George E. Scott of Jefferson county
was elected to the executive commit
tee, and this was the only election this
year. Two hundred candidates took
the sixth degree.

Good Results on Onions

The Fertillzing Salt I ordered last
season was applied literally to a piece
sown to Onions and the results, taking
into consideration the drought last yea
was good. Our observation during
growth led us to think that the Salt drew
and conserved the moisture; also done
good work getting ahead of the onion
maggot.

START
TROUBLE ON
MYO MARU

Five hundred steerage passengers
consisting mainly of Chinese destined
for big lumber, railroad and timber cor
porations conducting operations in Peru
and Chile, now held in detention in
Hilo on board the Japanese liner Kiyo
Maru, are becoming decidedly FESTIVE
at the enforced delay of that vessel
and its failure to proceed to the Next
can, central and South American coast.
Becoming highly incensed at the de-
tention within sight of land that has
extended over priod of more than 10
days, a number of Chinese are said to
have caused much trouble to the Jap
anese officers. They are alleged to
have made complaints which finally
reached their eountrymen at Hilo. Des-
pite attempts on the part of the steam
er officials to prevent the report of
trouble and dissention from escaping
the strict censorship maintained on
board the vessel, immediate steps were
taken last Thursday to passify the in
censed Chinese by the presentation to
each passenger of a small sack of candy
and other edibles.
Six hundred packages of sweetmeats
were distributed on the Kiyo Maru.
Matters are now said to have reached
a stage in the vessel where the officers
may be compelled to infiet punishment
upon some of the ringleaders.
That the Kiyo Maru should be held
in detention at the Hawaii port for
such a length of time has proved nys-
terry to local shipping men owing to
the repeated declaration from both the
British and Japanese consular officials
that the waters of the Pacific between
the Hawaiian islands and the west
coast of North and South America are
entirely free from German cruisers.
Local Japanese profess to have been
advised that vessels in the T. X. K.
trans Pacific service have been convoy
ed by a squadron of cruisers, one report
coming from japan that fourteen yes
sells including one battleship, five crnis-
efs and collier and tenders were en-
gagged in patrolling the Pacific between
the mainland and the Hawaiian islands.
