Holden There are some questions that ev ery farmer and Lis wife owe J t to themselves and to their children to sit down and tbiok over seriously. Among them are: How can we manage the farm to increase its net income? How can we increase its fertility? H( mv can we educate our children so that they will be better able to meet the various duties and responsibilities of life? With what influence can we surround them that will tend to give them habits of in dustry, frugality and thrift, and de velop them into honorable manhood and pure, refined womanhood? How can we add to the attractions, con veniences and refining influences of our homes and increase the pleas- ures of all members of the family? How can we manage to reduce the hours of physical labor, leaving mure time for the social pleasures that other clssses of peopete enjoy, and for the development of active, vigorous minds, without too serious ly curtailing the income or profits of the farm? Undertaking the solution of these questions the farmer is confront ed with the fact that he is frequent ly not receiving ample reward for his labor. He finds that it is not so much the amount of work he does, not so much his industry, not bo much the amount of material that is produced by bis industry that governs his reward, but it is the amount that is left to him after others have taken their share tor the haDdliog of bis product. He comes to realize that the reason he can not provide better education for bis children, more attractions and conveniences for his home and more pleasures for all his family, is because, in the disposul of his products, he is unable to return for wife and home, a fair share of what the harvest yields. He finds many times, of course, that his labor is not producing what it should; he is following wrong methods, or the fer tility of his farm is running down. So the great question of bow to cor rect all these matters is always be fore him. T o the growing boy and girl, to the honorable young man and re fined young lady come questions of how they can best develop all the latent powers of body and mind in to vigorous health and well stored intellect. How can they add to'the happiness of father, mother, friends and neighbors, and best do tbeir dut) to society and country? The aid that has most fully met the needs of the farming population in solving the problem of life and adding to the success and happiness of life on the farm, is the helpful in fluence of a good Orange, for the following reasons.

Because it is a school of 1 thought and mental development fur the boys an '1 girls as well as for the older members, givin g to all culture and refinement for the home, and the evperiences that are essen tial to success in public life. 6 . Because its educational fea tures tend to broaden tbe mind of the farmer aDd lead him to study and investigate questions wnich re late not only to the farm and farm life but to affairs o f state and nation as well. 7. Because it is the duty of farmers to co-operate with one an other if they would successfully meet the influence of organization in every direction and secure for a wife and home a fair share of what tbe harvest yields. The influence of tbb Grange develops a feeling of fraternity and good will among far mers and gives them greater confi dence in one another. Out of this has growu its co-operative features in fire and life insurance and in many other lines of business by whioh it bn* naved millions of dol lars to its members. 8 . Because it teaches farmers to study tbeir relations to other classes of society and to appreciate tbe im portance, tbe digoity and the honor that attaches to their calling. 9. Because it has compelled re spect for tbe farmer and his calling from other classes of society, nas gone far to remove tbe stigma of “ hayseed” from those who till the soil, and has secured substantial recognition for agriculture from National and State governments by provisions that are made for the study of the subject ior tbe dissem ination of knowledge concerning it, by the countless other ways >n which help is given to it. 10. Because it has made farm ers students of political economy, freed them from partisan and sec tional prejudice aDd taught them to use their power of organized ef fort in secuting tbe enactment of such non-partisan legislation as will protect the varied interests of agri culture and give greater property to tbe farming population of tbe whole country. 11. Because the careful, conserva tive,fair and honorable course ithas- always pursued in this line, as well as tbe loDg list of notable and wor thy victories which it has to its credits, it is coming to be looked upon by the beBt elements of society everywhere as one of the very best and safest guardians of the public interest. Some such influence is absolutely essential to conteract tbe corrupting influences of massive corporate and private wealth, both in matters of legislation and public morals as well. Its power for good increase in direct ratio with its strength in numbers. What it needs today is tbe active support of. every farmer in tbe land. This much it is entitled to and it should receive nothing less.
