Tho reason Is slmplo enough It costs next to nothing. Tho Grango hall furnishes tho store-room, and n member will attend to tho wants ol customers at n nominal rate. It re quires less capital. It avoids tho ac cumulation of dead stork. It Is Mm- plo In Its management, requiring no complicated systom of book-keeping, tho simplest entries of purchato nnd salo answering every purpose. It lakes away tho temptation to buy on credit. In Its distribution of profits It Is substantially tho snmo as tho Rochdalo plan refunding to each ono tho dlfferonco between tho wholc salo and tho rotall price, but making tho return at tho timo of purchase Instead of at somo futuro date. Tho capital may bo turned over again and again. It Induces members who want nn artlclo to turn out on Grango nights. Tho main lnconvcnicnco Is, It is apt to Interfere or delay tho evening's work.

U:nuy Cvuuh, I It Is especially Important that I'a trons knowing tho many bonellls and advantages arising from our Order should koofi beforo tho minds of their eo'laborors on tho farm who do not belong to tho Older nil tho fuels necessary to inform thorn of its princi ples, purposes and intontlons; for wo hold that no farmer who ouco bo- comes thoroughly conversant with Its fundamental principles and pur pones can hlsltato for a moment about joining tho Order. It is our duty to elevate our fellow-workers; nnd In no hotter or moro simple way can this bo accomplished than by increasing the boundaries of tho Grange, anil Instilling Into tho minds of farmers tho personal interest each has In tho Order -iiid Its co-operativo move ments. Wo feel that wo cannot too strongly or too frequently present this subject to J'atrous. Tho eoopcr ativo business feature of tho Order is tho great lover that imn-l movo agri culturists. Self-interest Is tho ruling mission In humanity, and tho farmers as u cla-s nro but human In this respect. They must seo that tho Grange will pay In dollars mid cents before they will come in. Members of the Order havo it in their power to convinco their neighbors of tho pecun iary benefits of our eo-ojieratlvo sys tem. It Is not necessary that any of our conlldontlal arrangements ho unlawfully revealed, but wo can show our neighbors that tho material ad vantages which result from tho co operation of mnny pcoplonro vory con siderable and not to bo lightly re garded; that to sell to the best advan tage, and to buy as cheaply ns posslblo Is to Increase tho profit of farmlug, and consequently, any plan which Is likely to enablo farmers to do those two things mil"! bo considered worthy of horious thought and attention. I'liut tho Grange organization Is capable of doing this for its mombers is o well known and accepted as a fact that no true 1'atrou thinks of denying It. Mistakes may occur, of course, but that is tho fault of Individ mils, and not of tho svstem. which Is eiicuiaiea to insure Mitlstactlou IT but carefully carried out. I'Mrmors' irii'iui. rCONCrjUDED. Thurs., 18 Traveled nbout 11 miles In a northwesterly direction, striking a smart-sized creek running in tho same direction nnd camping upon It. this crooK lias no brush upon Its banks, which was tho reason of It being overlooked whou they searched tho country for water. It Is evident that Mcok's knowlcdgo of tho coun try has rather failed him hero, since it is actually a shorter drlvo from tho spring wo left on the 10th Inst, to tho head of tho branch wo enmpod upon yesterday than It Is from tho 10th to tho lllh, nnd apparently n hotter road. Had wo takon that road wo would now bo advanced nt least 80 miles upon our Journey, besides bolng saved the trying suspenso ot romnln Ingin n misorablo encampment sov- oral dnys, with no prospect of water ahead for forty or fifty miles. Frl., 10. Went about 22 miles, road tolerably rough much of tho way, camping upon a stream in n deep, narrow glen rcsombllng tho Malheur much in character, and which wo bo llvo to bo Lohum's fork of Deschutes or Falls river. Sat., 20. Went nbout eight miles, camping upon tho ,amo stream men tioncu yesteruny, uown which wo followed all day, frequently crossing It, nnd at ono narrow pass wo wcro obliged to follow the bed of tho river for nearly a fourth of n mile. Sun., 21, Went nbout 10 miles to day, still keeping down tho river, oc cutlmally cutting across tho lowest points of tho bluffs, and camping up on It again. Tho hills along tho stream upon either hand aro covered In many places with tall pines. Moo., 22. Went about coven miles, kooplug still down along tho river, which has to bo crossed ovory mllo or two, and sometimes two or threo times In a mllo. Camped at tho foot of n tromondous hill, which it is nee ossary to ascend, and winch when wo llrst camo in sight of appeared to bo strung with wagons from tho bottom! to near tho top, several companies bo lug engaged in the ascent at the saino time. Tues., 2!J. Went about 12 miles, striking nwny from tho rlvor nnd camping upon n small branch of it. Had n long and hard pull in tho morn ing to nscond the hill spokon of yes terday, but onco up wo folt nmply ro- paid tho trouble of climbing by tho prospect which lay beforo us. Thcro wero tho Cascado mountains stretch Ing along tho western horizon, appar ently not moro than forty miles dis tant, forming n dark outline, varied bynn occasional snow-peak, which would rlso lofty nnd spiro-liko, as If It wore n monument to departed great ness. Wed., 21. Wont about 15 miles, camping nt a spring In tho midst of the plains, without a single landmark to tell Its .situation. I know of no reason why It should not bo, pleaso hand It to tho Society of Pioneers, of Oregon. With my compliments I herewith present It to them. II was written up dally after all my other duties as tcamitcrand general assistant abont tho camp wcro per formed.
