GRANGES TO MEET TODAY Columbia and Pomona Will Bold Important Joint Session. Pomona Grange, Patrons of Husbandry, will consider three Important measures at Its session today with Columbia Grange, east of the Sandy River, namely, the establishment of a farmers' 'exchange, appointment of a committee to frame a local anti-trust law and the Torrens sys tem of transferring land. The farmers' exchange will come up under a report of a committee appointed at the last meeting of Pomona Grange, of which A. F. Miller is chairman. It is an old question In new form. In reality It is a measure to enable groups of farmers to purchase by wholesale in Portland and secure lower prices than by purchasing small quanti ties separately. The local anti-trust law is the sugges tion of J. J. Johnson, the master, who is an attorney. He holds that there is now no way to break up a state combination In restraint of trade and the farmer Is the sufferer. The Torrens system will come up on the initiative of Evening Star Grange, which has been considering the subject for some time. Mr. Johnson also Is an ardent supporter of this system and be lieves that the Grange should take it up and advocate it. These measures are the most Important that have ever been con sidered by the Pomona. The local grange has promised to serve a dinner with Chinook: salmon as the chief feature. WHERE JO DINE.
