Every essay will present some phase of the gen eral theme, “ Ivanhoe and the Days of Chivalry,” and reveal the W izard of the North through his greatest prose production.

Myers, died In Portland this week, cutting short the promise of a brilliant career in the profession ol law in which, though a young man, he had already attained eminence. He was a step-son o f the late Judge Ral eigh Stott. Hon. Ben Scholfield, prominent in Grange work, interested in banking, and who, as regent of the State Nor man School at Monmouth, has been in fluential in making that institution a power foi good among the state pub lic schools, has been devoting the same judgment and energy which character ize all his labor to garden making. Naturally, like ail of Mr. Seholfield’s enterprises, the garden is a success, one of the finest in the valley.

GROVE, The character of the grange member- •hii md their faith in the Order are such as give permanence to the organization. The effect of united grange effort Is seen and felt In the legislature and other bene fits secured In the Interest of the farmer, along ail lines of work. Tho dairyman, the fruit grower, the stock breeder and ths poult ryman have all been benefited through the efforts of the grange. A greater degree of intelligence Is manifest among the farmers as a result of grange meetings and their outgrowth, the farm ers institutes of today. Extortion among dealers has been checked, and a cash basis for doing business is encouraged, with beneficial results. The grange organization stands entirely for good. The principles are dignity of la bor honest dealing, Justice to all, courage, temperance, thoroughness, peaceful citi zenship, charity and unspotted character. Can there be nobler principles than these? The grange encourages advanced educa tion and seeks to elevate not only its membership, but the community in which it exists to a higher plane of culture, re finement and social standing. Social scan dals are seldom found within its ranks. Its teachings are of the purest and high est character, like that of fan^ly refine ment and Intellectuality. If tne grange comes short of this, then the principles and precepts of the Order are not faith fully observed. The benefits of a good, active working grange are evidenced by an increased in terest in the larm and home, a greater de gree of social culture and enjoyment, an advance along the lines of higher educa tion and an Independence and thrift which should b*» the inheritance of every farmer. These facts appeal to all persons interested in agriculture, in all its varied departments, to unite with the grange and assist in advancing its objects as well as to share its benefits.

P etitio n , That K illed B a r r e l, W h e n t h e A nt l - o B i l l W , l Up. Ill the year 1889,.when the oleo ques tion was being agitated, the grange thought it about time that we as an or ganization began to do something to protect our Interests; therefore we pass ed some resolutions that we would take up what is known as the Grout bill and would use the forces of organization on it to see what could be brought about. Resolutions were drawn and presented to the subordinate granges, and it was the greatest surprise the Order ever hnd to know that inside of six weeks from the time of the presentation of these resolutions the replies came In to the legislative office in Washington In such numbers that they actually filled barrels. Nothing from their con- »MXucneles hud ever caused such a rev- elntiou to the minds o f the members of congress as this did, and what has been the result? The result was that we made a determined fight from that time on and won. W e did it through the grange, the recognized farmers’ organ ization. The dulrytuen's associations are today interested, the horticultural societies, the department of agriculture at Washington and in our own state and in almost every state are working hand in hand with the grunge.
