If they are in favor- of par- cels post and postal savings banks they should certainly say so. The tariff, the initiative and referen dum. direct primaries, election of United States senators by popular vote and some other questions are of a somewhat more doubtful character, and yet all of them vitally affect tiie farm ers of the country artd are vita) to good government. Just what class of subjects may be said to be specifically agricultural in their purpose it would be difficult to determine. Certainly the control of railroads and the fixing of freight and passenger rat«« cannot be said to be specifically agricultural in their pur pose, and yet it will forever remalh tiie glory of the grange that it secured file decision of the highest court in the land that "the crenture cannot tie greater than the creator." and it seems to inc that no one could censure the I grange for the active part it took in support of the interstate commerce commission. 1 fully realize that there is ground for honest difference of opinion upon this subject, but I nm willing to risk the patriotism and linrd horse sense of the farmers who compose the granges to settle these qm-stlons for themselves when they come to them without any greater restriction or lim itation than that found in the organic laws of tiie Order.

Tiie manufacture of dena tured alcohol lias not progressed as rapidly as it was expei-ted to. Imt if tills plant is successful In its operation it will provide a new and larger mar ket for corn, it is believed that the bnslness will develop throughout tiie west, Since many other products be- sides corn can lie used, such as pot a toes, fruits and some vegetables—In fact, almost any product which con tains starch—it will afford a ready market for many tilings that now go to waste on the farm.

There are certalu question« that we as agriculturists are interested in, in common with other organizations and the people generally On those ques tions ft is well to take a stand, but not make ir the especial business of the Order to advance or prevent legislation ou these matters. Tiie report of rite committee on leg islation covers nearly forty pages of the journul of the proceedings of the New York state grange for 1910. This alone indicates that there are a large uuinbet- of questions to be solved that the tillers of the soil are directly in terested in, as most of the resolutions referred to this committee are of vital Importance.
