assessed should give a list of all their

A resolution passed to'elect a delegato
or representative o Marion county to
attend the Linn County Business Council
meetings.- Another committeo was ap
pointed to visit the different subordinate
Granges of this county and to assist to
rovivo dormant Granges. The import
ance of the Grange work in all its phases
was shown and the members in attend
ance united in expressing their full en
joyment of the occasion. It was in some
degree an informal meeting where mem
bers partook freely in the discussions but
without disorder. The patrons of this
county should turn out in full to attend
the Fomona meetings, becauso any
fourth degree member can attend, and
proceedings are always in that degree.
The- value of business co-operation was
shown through the debates and steps aro
taken to work in unison with Linn
county Granges to secure benefits of
such co-operation with them.
The great feature of the Grange is
anti-monopoly and it contains within
itself some germs of monopoly that have
sprouted and made growth. It is aristo
cratic, after a fashion, when it has six
degrees that have a sort of exclusiveness
about them. It is also exclusive and
aristocratic in demanding peculiar qual
ifications for delegates to State and Na
tional Granges. There is really no need
for sccrcsy save of the plainest degree to
isolate the membership so that it will
have somo identity. Secresy may give it
a romantic tinge for some eyes and it
may ac'd value in others, but the fact of
secresy has no bearing on its influence
for good or its success. Many good peo
ple fear it on that account. Still, for pro
tection and safety, seciey has somo ad
vantages but we have too much of it ; a
little too much ritual sometimes; too
much time ceitainly lost in conferring
useless degrees. The man who hates
shams will find a fow there ; the man
who means business will be weaned
sometimes ; the one who considers timo
an object will lose some there. We could
suggest some little amendments to sim
plify and solidify the Grange that we be
lieve would make it stronger and entitle
it to greater public consideration.

Constitutional Amendments.
At the late session of the National
Grange, three amendments to tho Con
stitution of our Order Tcre submitted
to the State Granges for ratification.
The first of these provides that State
Granges may hold biennial sessions
when in their judgement the interests of
the Order can be better served thereby.
Much can be said on both sides of this
question against it, as, first the more
frequently any oiganization meets, the
better and more general the interest and
usefulness. This has been seen in the
meetings ol subordinate urangen ; tno' j, . than
wliich meet regularly each week aie tlm farms of
best, second The suborumatc ui.uige
in the State will loose the inspiration
usually given by the State Grange ses
sions, should it meet biennially. Third
There -would be difficulty in getting
Constitutional amendments ratified, tak
me two vears to cet an amendment
through when only part of State Granges
meet each year.
On the other side, the cost of the Stnte
Grange session could be saved and ex
pended in sending lecturers into the field
and sending out documents and papers,
This is a good argument lor the change.
"We say let the States have the liberty to
try the plan, but may thfey all remember
to be wise supplying the stimulus needed
in the absence ot annual meetings.
The biennial sessions should come on the
year of the election of officers.
The second amendmcntls to chanee
the words" "religious a'nd.political" in
to benefit Subordinate Granzes. and that KftKIIIK IlKlsifllll. "?'". ! ?'" '!''::'. ?' fr
of course, means the more membership. ,fjv. f.Tfirl'L'r ..". ,"! V iiio(laieiajorcier recclceif.
Hut this answor is too
tho desire for infdrmat:
the question, repeated
remaps the best answ
journal of proceed
be printed and distributed to all the Sub
ordinate grnnges that have paid tho State
Granges. Still thero is another answer
which may servo the present purpose
The National Grange, in which thcro were
presf nt fifty representatives of tho State
Granges, lcncwed its zeal. Tho members
after the session had closed returned to
their homes imbued with earnest pur
pose to do for the constituencies thoy rep
resent whatever work might tend to the
advancement of the Order The session
was harmonious and not a sinclo mem
ber had at the closo 'one sentiment of
ill will for any of his associates. Thoso
who have naked he question: What
did the National Grango do? will hardly
expect extended answer, but tne oppor
tunity suggests that it is well to remind
them that the National Grange has not
power to do a great deal for Subordinate
Granges except as these bodies co-operate
in efforts directed by tho parent body.
Roal work, real advancement must havo
its origin in the Subordinate Granges
which are the life and soul of the Ordor.
In these let every member render such
service as may be in his power and tho
National Granco will in its next session
have a day of rejoicing.- Husbandman.'
The Balance' of Power.
Tho New York Evening Tost sh"vs,
in a well-written editorial, that the bal
ance of political power is in the hands
of the independent voters. It says :
"For the presidential contest tho inde
pendent vote is absolutely free of both
parties, and neither of the great parties
can count upon it surely next year except
by putting in the field such candidates
avowing such principles as will meet in
pependent demands."
Would it not be well then for both of
tho parties to heed tho lessons taught
them in the past two -years, and no longer
consider "a nomination equivalent to an
election." Would it bo well then for
all true, patriotic .freemen to riso above
the slavery of party and voe as they
usually woik for their principles and
their interests, which causo will '-promote
the welfare of "the country and
manhood." Patrons should use party
only so far as it aids them in tho fur
thering of tho interests of agriculture,
tho checking of corporate greed, and tho
regulation and control by law of all del
egated power, individual or corporate.
Think for yourselves; vote for youv
own principles and interests.

terms.
The third amendment changes the
timo of the National Grange meeting to
the first Wednesday after the second
Monday in No ember the week after the
annual and biennial election in many
States. This time cannot be earlier than
the 9th nor later than the lfith of Nov
ember, and .will not come on the week
of Thanksgiving, as this year thochange
will allow the fctnte Oranges to, ebme of
them meet earlier, and riot so many of
them have tomeettheBame.week -thus
allowing members in one State to attend
the meetings in adjoining fi'ates. It
would irive Masters of State (J ranges to
havo more time to prepare for their State
Grange meeting. N

Tlie United States has many farmers
who are " land poor," they have so much
land that they cannot make a living on
it. When they have learned that it is
not economy to own more land thau thoy
can till in, the most profitable manner,
so that it will nay for the money expend
ed in keeping i' free from taxes, weeds
and other encumbrances, they will hae
solved the problem of caso in a farmer's
life. The happiest and thriftiest farmers
tti have ecr known lived on farms of
one hundred acres some on
onlv ten acres, overy foot of
which was made to count. On the other
hand, the farmer who has so many broad
acres that he cannot walk over them
daily, where rods of fenco corners aro
neer cultivated or 'made of any use,
lives a life of anxiety and worry. His
taxes aie heavy nnd his crops light. Ho
cannot, give reasonably thorough culti
vation to such land. Now, if the farmer
who owns one hundred acres of land
will sell half of it and expend the money
received for it in cultivating the other
fifty, getting blooded stock, and poultry,
fertilizers, etc., he can make each aero
produce as much as two acres are doing
now. His taxes will be les, his circs
less, and his gains vastly greater.
What rodder will Do.
It is now stated as a well-know n fact,
that in different breeds of thesame species
the same fodder produce' a yery differ
ent effect. All experimenthitherto, how
ever, have failed to show any notable dif
ferences of digestive power in such cases.
and it would thus appear that the observ
ed differences are due to the varying en
ergy with which the constituents of the
body are oxidized. In an experiment with
two mature sheep, a Southdown and a
Merino, on identical rations, from which
identical amounts of the several nutrients
were digested, Wiske 'ound that the ap
parent gain of "liesh" (nitrogenous mat
ter) was greatest in the Merino sheep ;
but this dinerence was bomewnat more
than covered by the greater growth of
wool. So far as thi single experiment
nroves anvtnim:. it shows that not only
the digestive powers, but also the pro
teid metabolinn of differnt breeds of
shpep aft essentially tho same, and in
di cite that the differences in the cases
of fattening aie due to diffciencein the
rapidity with which qon-nitrogenon. sub
ftancei! are oxidized in the body.
