STATE GRANGE MEETINGS.
Prepare ow tu MnUp Tli-ni 1 inn-en t
Iiik unci lrollf jtltlr.
The state grunge sessions will be
held soon. If Kiiliordiuate or 1'onioiu;
grange have any resolutions to pre
Bent to the state grange prepare them
carefully nnd Instruct your delegates
s to your wishes thereon. There are
only a few- days of the state grunge,
and business Is pressing. There is no
time then to get u lot of undigested
matter In shape. Upon questions of
Importance let '.here be careful atten
tion given by delegates that they may
be able to vote Intelligently and to take
part In the discussions of measures, if
wise or necessary. The questions of
sufficient Importance to engage the
time of the state grange are, or should
U known In every grange und a care
ful study of the matter made that the
tlclegnte may be wisely instructed.
Occasionally u delegate goes to the
state grange thoroughly unprepared to
rote Intelligently. He looks about help
lessly to see how others ure voting.
I'erchance some one has spoken force
fully to (mother question and thereby
won the admiration of our uninformed
friend. No matter whether he Is right
on this question or not or whether or
not he Is thoroughly Informed, the Igno
runt voter votes as he does. Fortunate
ly such cases ore rare.
The resolutions of the state grange
reflect the sentiment of tho best class
of farmers, and public men and econo
mists look to them ns the key to public
opinion. They compare tho resolutions
year by year nnd are quick to detect
any change. Let all the resolutions bo
carefully worded and worthy of a great
and powerful body of men nnd women
who speak for the millions of farmers,
whether organized or unorganized.
Farm and Fireside.
Katare Study In I'nbllo School.
The grunge everywhere Is Interested
In the advancement of the public
schools. The latest evidence of It is in
tho state of Oregon. The Oregon stare
grange has heartily indorsed the intro
duction of nature study In country
schools. Last year ft teacher in one of
the public schools of a Portland suburb
led her scholars In. excursions to the
woods nnd fields near by to study
plants and Insects there. This is the
first time such a method of nature
study has been taken up in this state,
and so Interesting nnd successful was
It that many of the country schools will
take It up this fall.
(iranve Fair.
It Is notnblo how many grange agri
cultural fairs there hnvo been held tho
past ntitumn as well as Indoor agricul
tural and horticultural exhibitions. This
is a good sign. It menus that the
grange Is doing soiaothlug and Is being
more and more helpful to all farmers,
whether members of the order or not.
Tin-re Is also in these exhibitions an In
centive to better agriculture.
School of Instruction.
Some state granges do not make
enough of the "schools of Instruction"
for the correct performance of the de
gree work. At least once a year some
competont official should hold a scl ,j1
ef instruction in each county.

A Lare Variety of Occupa
tions Open to ILr.
Should Select One that Is SjitoJ to
Her Neighborhood.
In a symposium In the Wlscnnnln
Farmer on tho possibilities of a farm
er's daughter enjoying nn Income, nnd
yet living at homo, there sre nif.ny
sngeestlons offered. We quote ex
tracts from some of the letters':
"A little canvassing for various ar
ticles will aid and Is usunlly attended
with good profits, provldipi; the per
son has tho grit and will carefully
study tho business."
"My daughters raise sage, onion
sets, garden seeds and poultry, nil of
which give the girls out door exercise,
which gives them health and rosy
cheeks."
"The parents might give the daugh
ter a certain per cent, of the profits
for caring for the milk from n number
of cows, and dairy products are al
wnj's in demand."
"One who has an eye for the beau
tiful. Joined to an Idea of the eternal
fitness of things and a lit In tact, could
retrlm hats, furnishing her own ma
terials." "Tomatoes, string beans and catsup
can be put up In c:ms and bottles,
which will always llinl ready sale. The
girls who do plain sewing are gen
erally well conipensnfpil."
"There are busy housekeepers In
the country that would be too glad to
know of soma girl of a neighbor who
would come In and help them In an
emergency, like unexpected company,
Illness, etc., paying them well."
"n a farm a girl can very profita
bly ei'.gaire her time, after assisting
with the household duties, by cultivat
ing a p:i'ch of berries which will
bring a fair price In the market. A
patch of beans or onions is a very
profitable crop."
"Our oldest girl takes most of tho
care of an nplary of fifty or sixty
swarms of bees, Fprlng count. She
owns five seventeenthn of the bees
now, having purchased the same with
money earned by caring for them a
few years ago on shares."
"Running a farm Is an excellent oc
cupation for girls and Is no disgrace.
It Is honorable, healthy and good In
every way. They can run father's
farm the same ns the brothers do. with
equal honor, propriety, health and In
come, and thus become Independent
of others for support."
"There Is a great opening for the
girls on the farm In the line of Iress
making. If some of our farmers'
daughters would s'art In that business
they would In a short time ilf hor
oughly competent) get all the work
they could do, and It would be more
remunerative than school teaching, or
any other work that girls usually do
when employed away from home."
'T.ut, girls, whatever you do !f you
wish to make a success of your under
taking you must learn to do your work
neatly and well."
These suggest a variety of occupa
tions, nnd almost any girl who wishes
to earn her own spending money, or
lay up a snug little sum for future
needs, should bo able to select one
that Is suited to her own neighborhood
and herself.
Home-Made Cabbage Cutter.
We depict herewith a very useful
cabbage-cutter. It has a frame made
of maple or other tine-grained wood,
an Inch and a quarter thick. The bot
tom Is four feet long and ono foot wide.
The sides are the same In length and
four inches wide. At one end pieces
shaped has shown In tho engraving,
four Inches wide and four inches long
on top, sloping to twelve Inches, are
firmly attached. One Inch above the
bottom are grooves half an Inch deep
and tho same In width, extending tho
entire length of each. Above the cen
tre of the bottom a hole is cut, three
Inches square, In which three knives
are set diagonally and nearly flatwise,
tho edge being slightly higher than
the backs. The cutting-box is twelve
Inches square and ten Inches deep,
mado of Inch boards. A Ualf-Uich
CAHHAOK CUTTER,
cleat of tine, hardwood is screwed to
each side, a little less than an Inch
from tho bottom. Theso cleats run
freely In the grooves at tho sides. A
round nolo ton Inches iu diameter Is
cut In the bottom of the box. Tho
motion Is imparted to the box by a
crank upon which plays a pltmnn,
hinged to the box has shown above.
The cover fits down snugly Into the
box, and Is held In place by a strap of
Iron, bout as shown In the engraving,
and provided at the ends with knobs
of india-rubber which press upon the
outside of the box, holding the corer
down. The cabbage or roots to be cut
are placed In the box, the cover press
ed down upon them, and then, by the
revolutions of the crank shaft, the box
plays back and forth over the diagonal
knives. The latter may be set to cut
more or less rapidly, as desired.
Pigpens which stand high on posts,
with an open space beneath the floor,
are cold places In winter, despite straw
bedding. It saves feed and adds to
the health and comfort of the pigs to
"bank up" such pens or otherwise keep
the winds 'from whistling under them
and through the floors.
Bbeep should always be provided
with salt. It aids digestion and pre
vents disease.
POPE'S UNFORTUNATE NAMF.
Those Who Have Been Called Plus
Had Troubled Lives.
The new Pope, In deciding to bo
known as Plus, has assumed a tinm:
which has anything but n fortunate
record in the history of the Papacy.
The first Plus, who ruled in the sec
ond century, was martyred. No Pope
took the name again for J ,1!m years.
The second Plus was somewha of an
adventurer In his lay days, and
was poet laureate at Vienna,
fin becoming Pope, Pius III.,
ruled for a few days In l."iii:i, and Is
said to havo died from poison. Plus
IV. and V. followed each other In the
middle of the s'xteenth century, and
It wns the lat:er who, with the use
of abominable language, excommuni
cated tjueen Elizabeth.
The name of Plus wns not again
heard of until the closo of the eigh
teenth century. Plus VI. ruled in
Home when the storm of the French
revolution burst. Itonaparte drove
him from his city and ordered the
Papacy to be abolished. The aged
Pope was treated with Indignity, his
private property was confiscated, and
he died in exile at Valence In 17!!.
Ills successor also took the name of
Plus when he was elected at Venice,
the conclave being under the protec
tion of Russia. It suited Napolean's
purpose to recognize tho temporal
power of Plus VII., and the Pope
rame to Paris to crown Napoleon. Hut
In lsii!) Napoleon again abolished the
temporal power, and deposed Plus,
who was not restored till 1SM.
The next Pope but one was Tilts
VIII., nnd he had an uneventful reign
from 1s-'! to 1s:il. Another Pope now
Intervened, and Plus IX. was elected
In 1S0. With h!m the misfortune
that seemed to attend the name cuf
mlnated In the total abolition of the
temporal power. London Paper.
PUSS IN THE LION'S DEN.
The Little Cat Insisted on Being
Friends with Her Big Cousin.
Tiny, a pet cat at (ilen Island, was
seen one morning mewing piteously
under a cage containing a large lion.
She had been Injured and hopped
about on three legs. For comfori, or
perhaps companionship, sho crawled
Into the lion's cage and began to make
herself at home. The lion opened his
eyes wide with wonder at the pre
sumption, then for a time paid no
more attention to her than if she had
been a fly.
A keeper took a long-handled broom
and tried to shove her out of the ca.?e.
The lion snarled and his eyes shone
wickedly. Tiny started toward tho
lion, when the big cat threw out his
paw to push her away. Taking the
lion's act only In play, she wns up In
a sacond, nnd clasping the huge paw
between her tiny forefeet she began
to lick It affectionately. From that
moment the Injured kitten and tho
lion were friends.
She afterward took a shine to the
polnr bear and crawled between the
bars of the den, but the bear looked
at her askance and then climbed up
the rocks in the rear of the den, where
It was snfo.
The only cage that pus's keeps away
from Is occupied by a black monkey,
which thrust Its pnw out and clutched
the end of Tlny's tall and bit It.

Correcting History.
Recently the Emporia Gaz.ette attri
buted to tho late Joe Ady the state
ment about Senator Burton that, "I
would rather have that fellow's nerve
than a license to steal."
It was Maker's luck and not Bur
ton's nervo thnt the late Joe Ady val
ued above a license to steal. It was
the occasion of the Senatorial caucus1
In 1805. Ady, Burton, Hood. Thatcher
and others had sought the Republican
nomination but had sought In vain.
Baker had not sought the place, but
the toga had fallen upon his shoulders.
After the die had been cast and the
contest ended the various candidates
were called before the caucus and
made to dive down Into deep floods
of disappointment nnd remorse and
bring up from the pebbly bottom ex
pressions of loyalty to the principles
of the party, satisfaction as to the re
sult and congratulations for the cho
sen champion. It was then that the
brilliant, clean and worthy Joe Ady
said: "I would rather have his (Bak
er's) luck than a license to steal."
It was on that occasion that Burton
hinted at the blots upon his past ca
reer that had made his defeat pos
sible and said: "When will the stat
ute of limitations apply?"
Consumption bad already made deep
marks upon poor Joe Ady, and he
went to Colorado to llngor a few
years and to die.
Six years later the "statute of limi
tations had applied," and Burton was
elected to the United States Senate.
Baker served In the Senate for six
years, but was hardly big enough to
stand alone In such a high place and
gracefully retired wben he found he
could not be re-elected, Judge Tbath

wealth and retirement Dalton Tri

There are a number of butterfly
farms In France, where the object Is
to breed rare specimens of the silk
worm family. Several new varieties
have been obtained by crossing, and
an effort is being made to acclimatize
species that belong to other countries.
The farms have oak, allantbus, pine,
and plum trees, and castor-otl plants,
on the leaves of which the caterpil
lars feed. Cocoons are hatcVed on
branches protected by gauze and, for
tho sake of uniform temperature, the
Insects are often kept In a room until
after the first moulting, when they are
placod on bushes In the open air and
protected from birds by coverings of
tulle.
GRANGE NEWS.
By J, T. Ailman, Press Correspondent and
Secretary Penn'a Slate Grange.
Lenox Grange, No. 931, Susque
hanna county, is alive as usual hav
ing initiated something over 20
condidatcs the present year with a
fair prospect for more in the near
future. The fore part of the year
we had u .spelling match which
created considerable amusement.
The third Saturday in June we ob
served ns children's day. The
children furnished the entertain
ment, after which they were served
with ice cream, cake, bananas and
oranges. The following Sunday
was observe 1 as memorial day, in
memory of our departed members
Sister Gertrude Nichols and Bio.
James Casey. At our next meet
ing, Nov. 22, we expect to have a
debate and the meeting following,
Dec. 5th, we will have an annual
dinner, to which grangers and their
families can attend. The trustees
have purchased the old hotel at
(jlenwood, which will be designated
as a grange hall. The hotel con
tains a ball room, so it can easily be
arranged to meet the requirements
of the grange, We expect to oc
cupy our new hall the first of the
year.
Mrs. K. L. Coil, Sec'y.
To study the origin, composition
and especially the possibilities of a
shovel full of ground requires no
less application and brings into ex
ercise all the powers of the mind as
fully as does the study of mathe
matics, classic or philosophy.
Plants and animals furnish a still
wider field for thought and inves
tigation. The successful farmers
are engaged in this kind of work
and the grange is doing much to
make intellectual effcrtr. popular
with the agricultural class.
You will notice the increase in
membership from Dec. 1902, a
membership of 36 to Sept. 1903,
increased to 74. During this quar
ter we have already initiated 5 and
have proposals in for next meeting
for 14 and some few for reinstate
ment. I think by the end of the
year. we will reach our 100 mark.
We have purchased the Baptist
church property for a grange hall
and are now putting it iu repairs.
If all goes right I think we will
not ouly have a grange hall of our
own but will build iu addition a
town hall.
John T. Pattox, Sec'y.
Warriors Mark Grange No. 864,
Huntingdon county.
Oxford grange, No. 67, Chester
county, held its regular semi-monthly
meeting on Sept. 18th, and as
usual was well attended: the num
ber of members present, 30, and
they showed the same intetest and
enthusiasm that is destined to place
No. 67 among the active granges
of the state. At the meeting be
sides the routine business the
grange decided to install an exhibit
at the Oxford Fair which was held
on the 23rd. 24th and 25th of Sep
tember. The exhibits were the
products of the home garden and
orchard and we can say we received
first premium. It is also worthy of
note that several premium winners
of the fair are numbered among the
active members of the grange.
Mary Millar Fisher
L. W. Howden, of Corryville,
McKean county, writes; "I have
been out nearly all night for two
nights attending grange meetings.
Tuesday night at Turtle Point,
where they gave the 3rd and 4th
degrees to 16 candidates and last
night at Eldred, where they con
ferred the 1 st and 2nd degrees upon
a class of 12. To-night is grange
night heie at Corryville. Four
candidates are ready. Last Satur
day Port Allegheny took in 11 and
will have 3 or 4 at next meeting.
I think the county is good for at
least 50 new members this month.
I expect to get some more new
granges soon.
By the initiative and referendum
or direct legislation can the true
spirit of our institutions be main
tained and a government of the
people by the people and for the
people be securea.
The late session of the National
Grange at Rochester. New York
passed resolutions in favor of wo
man suffrage.
Prot. S. H. Bailey, dean of the
agricultural college, of Cornell
University, during an address at
the recent Rochester Natioual
Grange meeting, paid this excellent
tribute to the order; "lama mem
ber of a number of organizations;
but if I could be in and work for
oueonly, it would be the grange."
WANTS TEACHERS BETTER PAID.
Slate Superintendent Schaeller Thinks Salar
ies are Too Low to Assure Best Results.
Dr. Nathan C. SchaelTer, super
intendent of public instruction, has
completed his annual report to the
legislature, giving in detail the
work done during the last year in
his department.
The report shows that the num
ber of male teachers is steadily de
creasing throughout the state, while
the number of female teachers ison
the increase. During the past year
342 male teachers dropped from the
ranks, while there was an accession
of 1 5 r female teachers. Male
teachers had their salaries increased
$1.81 per month, while the sahries
of the female teachers were only
increased 75 cents. The total in
crease in teachers' wages was $720,
619.69, The number of schools was in
creased by 718, and the increase
in the number ot graded schools
was 1348. The increased cost of
building, purchasing and renting
was $366,957.63 and of the cost of
fuel, contingencies, debts and in
terest paid. $198,768.25.
Schools have made great progress
in the advance of teachers' salaries,
the enforcement of the compulsory
attendance law, in the number of
township high schools established,
in the proficiency of the teachers,
the benefits ot county institutes and
the establishment of kindet-gartens
and manual training schools.
Dr. Schaeffer refers to the in
crease in the cost of living and to
the fact that teachers' salaries have
not increased accordingly and says:
"This means that teachers are
worse off now in the day of our na
tional prosperity than they were
when everybody was complaining of
hard times. Teachers seldom go
on strike. In other vocations unions
of labor and capital have been
fighting to secure shorter hours,
better wages nnd larger profits.
Who has ever heard of a union of
women organized for the purpose
of securing for themselves better
wages in the labor markets of the
world? Women organize to promote
temperance, to avert social evils,
to care for children, for the sick and
for the needy; they combine in a
thousand ways to aid benevolent
operations of all sorts, but it is
marvelous beyond finding out that
they have never organized to better
the conditions of those who devote
their lives to teaching."
The compulsory school law is
also treated at length by Dr.
Schaeffer. He cites Middletowu,
Lebanon and Chambersburg as ex
amples of places where the opera
tion of the law has demonstrated
its efficiency and justified all that
was claimed for the law before its
passage.
Lids Mast Be On Cigar Boxes.
Revenue Collector IT. L. Hersley
has received notice of a ruling of
the Commissioner ot Internal Re
venue relative to the practice of
many cigar dealers in removing the
lids of cigar boxes in order to dis
play the goods in show cases, the
lids, however, being placed under
the boxes. The Commissioner
rules that to divide the lid from the
box is illegal, as it requires a whole
stamp to protect a box.
