LIVE WESTERN GRANGE.
Its Committee Establishes q Public
Free Market.


In the discussions Of the advan-
tages OF marketing direct TO the con.
sumer, In order 10 reduce the high cost
OF living and 10 give the farmer little
better price for his produce. only
rarely do we find oranges or other
farmers organizations that combine
talk with action. In Washington state
there is a Pomona grange that is diff
ferent In this respect AT meeting
Of that grange II was decided that
something should be done about estab
fishing grange free market. A com
mittee was appointed in the forenoon,
and while the rest were eating their
lunch. presumably. this committee
went out and rented vacant lot In
the central part of the city and re
ported TO the grange. On the follow
ing Saturday six farmers teams ap
peared at that market place with loads
OF fresh garden stuff. eggs. butter. etc.
They offered their goods for about %
per cent less than the merchants were
getting. For long time the mer'
chants tried to combat the farmers
market by reducing their prices for the
market days. But this did not last
long. The farmers kept at 1t. and
when fall came they leased an old
building I'm the center OF the city. as
the city would not build suitable
market building. and In 1t constructed
seventeen stalls or booths. and this
structure was by no means large
enough. Another market will be es
tabllshed II 1t has not been already.
The scheme has been notable sue
cess. Two market days week were
established, and there many house.
keepers Of the city go with their
market baskets and replenish their
Iarders, for about everything can there
be found that is raised on the farm.
There are hundreds Of small cities
where the same idea can be worked
out Just as successfully, and there are
oranges that can do 1t II only they 60
about it. 1t Is a simple matter to
solve this problem of eliminating the
middleman, In numerous instances.
when it Is gone about in the right way.
The only way to do some things Is to
do them.

Firemsker High Order
When in the spring Of 1911 meet
ing was held TO consider the advisa
bility Of forming I'm organization which
should do for girls what the boy
scouts were doing for boys the pro.
moters never dreamed that the organi-
cation which was brought about--the
Campfire Girls-woud grow to such
splendid proportions and would present
such fine possibilities. The Campfire
Girl movement today is one OF the
big things OF the country Among
those active in the initial movement
were William Chaucey Iangdon, Mrs

Luther II. Gulick, Professor Mary
Schenck Woolman, DR.. Anna Brown.
Mrs. Ernest Thompson Seton, Lee +.
Hammer, James T.. West, Mrs. Angus
tus Traut and Miss Lima Beard.
Preliminary work was done during
the summer and fall. During the fol-
lowing winter Il manual was prepared,
funds were secured and an organiza-
ton created and offices opened. 1t was
publicly announced on March II, 1912;
up to Dec. /, 1913, 4,04l guardians had
been appointed. over 60,0O0 girls en-
rolled and campfires started in every
state and territory in the Union. The
budget for 1913 was S33,393.
The following persons have been
mainly responsible for financial sup

Girls Over Twelve Eligible.
Any girl over twelve years Of age
may join a campfire and become
Campfire Girl. Local campfres consist
Of not over twenty members, in charge
of a woman who stands as a leader In
her community and who is called the
guardian of the fire" In addition to
daily activities the girls have weekly
month for the awarding of honors and
comforting Of ranks.
The organization is primarily related
to home and social life, hence it should
usually consist of girls of about the
same age, who naturally belong to-
gether, whose homes are near one an
other and who like one another. The
best results are secured by having the
guardian and the group socially homo
geneous.
As the activities and responsibilities
of campfire girls are not adapted for
girls under twelve. an auxiliary or
ganization. the Campfire Bluebirds, has
been formed for the younger sisters
and their friends. Any girl over six
years old may join nest Of Bluebirds.
Each campfire guardian may have one
