Husbandry Patrons
 Favored By Walker
Wolcott and Mad River Grange Members Attend See-
 ond Congregational Services Yesterday Morning

My conviction is that the health and strength of our social, indus trial, fraternal and religious life de- pend directly or indirectly on the farming community and its well be- ing, that we all, Changers or not, ought to be patrons of husbandry," stated Rev. Dr. John c. Walker in his sermon at the Second Congrega- tional Church yesterday morning.
 Members of the Wolcotl and Mad River granges attended the exer- cises. Dr. Walker said in part:
 we are happy to nave these friends who represent this great na- tional fraternal order, who repre- sent the fundamental human trade, that of farming. It must be true, l suppose, that the fisherman and the hunter were first in the field. At the dim dawn of human history men roamed the fields and the forests seeking fish and game for their sus- Jenance. You get echoes of those primeval days in the early pages of the Old Testament, wherefore it is said, Even as Nimrod the mighty hunter before the Lord But pursue the story a little further, read a little deeper into the history of the beginnings of civilization and you discover that to all intents and pur- poses the stage of barbarian ended and the age of civilized living began when primitive man settled down to fixed habitation and began to till the soil. The farmer was fundamen- tai to the new and settled order. As long as men were nomads, no true civilization could develop. Once men settled down in little villages and began to cultivate the wild herbs and grasses, they began the long upward climb toward civilization as we know it today. We must also acknowledge that in this modern day the work of the farmer is still basal and pri- mary. The German nigh command may choose cannon instead of butter if they will but sooner or later their people will rue the day. No matter how mechanized and complex the modern industrial order may be, it all rests back on the fruit of the vine and the field and the orchard.
 do not need to be told, of course, that few, if any of the Changers we have with us this morning are farmers. Waterbury and vicinity have become industrialized and even
