We have before had occasion to remark on the ofttimes hasty manner In which resolutions are rushed through on the eloslng day of the session without due consideration. The grange cannot afford to place It self beforo the country by any resolu tions It may adopt unless they are the result of the most careful thought and Intelligent discussion. This means that resolutions should be introduced at an early day In the session In order that ample time may be taken for their dis cussion. In It Proper to say Oriifrt" .A New Hampshire correspondent asks: "Is It proper to pay grangers? Should we not say Patrons of Hus bandry?" It Is proper, replies the New England Farmer, and, we think. In good taste to refer to members of the grange os "grangers." The Standard dictionary gives as the meaning of "granger, a member of the farmers' grange, or branch of the Order of Patrons of Husbandry." Webster's International detlncs the word granger "a member of the grange." The grange Is now rec ognized by all people as one of the grandest social and educational organi sations In the United mates. The best and most enlightened citizens ore proud of their membership In Its ranks. High public otllclals boast of their grunge affiliations. The word "gran ger" Is short, distinctive und euphoni ous. It is no reproach to any one In city or country to be known as belong ing to the great organization whose members are best distinguished by the appellation "grangers." This being true, why should any member object to the word Vgruuger?" Grange Inspection Needed. A very opportune proclamation has been sent out by State Master Hill of Pennsylvania regarding the Inspection of subordinate granges. He justly says each grange should Insist upon having a visit paid it by the deputy for Inspec tion. This sen-Ice by qualified persons ban been found by actual experience to be both profitable and necessary in commercial enterprises, military organ izations and In civil affairs. Deputies arc urged to visit and Inspect each grange within their Jurisdictions at leust once during euch year. The depu ty receives In Pennsylvania a dollar from the state grange treusury for this work for each Inspection. He Is to re port the working ability of granges visited, should exemplify the unwritten work and answer questions concerning the Order and also give such helpful suggestions as occur to hi in as most beneficial to the special granges vis ited. The New York State Grange. A meeting of the Now York state grange will be held In Ogdensburg ear ly In February. During the year ended Nov. 1 there have been thirty -four sub ordinate granges organized and three Pomonus, one Pomona huvlng a chart er membership of 27. One or two Ju venile granges have also been organ ised. Dues have been paid to the na tional grunge on 58,172 members, which shows the active membership of the Order In New York state. There have been 5,1)00 members added during the past year, and there are now 587 lire granges In the state. During the year SU8 candidates have received the sixth degree. Grange Fire Insurance. The Patrons' Fire Relief association of Jefferson and Lewis counties, N. Y., had 0,047 policies In force on Oct 1, representing $11,408,004 of insurance. The assessment this year is $2 per 1,000, being the highest assessment In eleven years. This was made nec essary by the exceptionally largo num ber of fires caused by lightning. More than seventy grange mutual firo in surance companies In the United Stutes have saved for grange members mil lions of dollars by furnishing Insur ance at about half whut old line com panies charge. In the I'ine Tree State. The Maine state grange register for 1004 gives 23 Pomona granges, 850 subordinate and 24 Juvenile. Accord ing to the annual report issued by Secretary Freeman of the national grange the number of granges organ ized In Maine for the year ended Sept B0, 1004, is 17, and 11 granges were reorganized. New balls are being erected every year, and about 75 per tent own their own balls. The Grange AaaUted. Colonel J. H. Btigbam, late assist ant secretary of agriculture, Introduc ed In the national grange meeting In 1879 the resolution that started the grange campaign which resulted In en larging the .work and usefulness to farmers of the denartmont of agricul ture and In making Its bead a cabinet oiricer. Delaware has but three counties, but has twenty-three granges In good forking condition. F. E. DAWLEY. f)lrector of Farmers Inntltnte In New York State. F. E. Dawley of Fayettevllle, N. Y., the present director of farmers' Insti tutes and n prominent member of the grange, was born at Elbrldge, Onon daga county, N. Y., Sept. 10, 180.1, and received his education In the common schools and the Moifroo Collegiate In stitute In Us native village. In 1891 ho moved, with his father's family, to a farm which they purchased near Fayettevllle and which has become so well known as Dotshome farm. There Mr. Dawley has since resided. He Is a noted breeder of Jer sey cattle and Cheviot sheep, and he tins also given a great deal of atten tion to poultry culture. He is a familiar fig ure at the fairs r. E. pa wi.ey. throughout the etnte and has acted In the capacity of Jndgoof dnlrycattleln the past ten years end has picked out the winners at more than a hundred fairs without a pro test being made. In 1891 ho became secretary of the State Farmers' league, was six years secretary of the New York State Poultry society, has served as master of the Syracuse grange, sec retary of the Pomona grange, treasurer of the New York State Dairymen's as sociation, Is at present one of the di rectors of the New York State Breed ers' association, chairman of the execu tive committee of the New York State Fruit Growers' association, secretary of the American Cheviot Sheep soci ety, trustee of Cornell university and director and trustee in at least a dozen other organizations which have to do with the Interest of the fanner. In 1890 he was appointed director of farmers' institutes and has made the work a marked success in this state. When be undertook the work he started an edu cational campaign to secure larger re sults in the dairies of the state, and much of the Increased production per cow from 3,000 pounds In 1889 to 4,375 In 1899 has come from his work. Mr. Dawley is likely to be the appointee of the president to the vacant office of assistant secretary of agriculture at Washington. Money la Grange Halls. In the state of Maine there are over 40,000 members. There are 307 sub ordinate granges, and 275 of these own their halls, costing an outlay of over $500,000. In the county of Androscog gin there are eighteen granges. Seven teen of these own halls, at an average cost of $3,000 each, and three of them cost $8,000 each. la New Hampshire about $118,000 is invested in like man ner. Connecticut has about $140,000. New York leuds in the cost of grauge hulls, one at Herkimer costing over $12,000. In that state are several cost ing $0,000 to $8,000 and a total of about $300,500. But I will not weary you with details. As far as I have received, returns I find the sum invested in this munner exceeds $2,000,000. Where a subordinate grunge owns its building its Influence for good in that communi ty is greatly enhanced. O. II. Kelley. A Power In Michigan. MIchiguu Is one of the strongest grange stutes In the Union. The influ ence of the grauge Is felt und admitted by all parties. The state grange has a strong legislative committee of five members, among whom are the muster and secretary of the state grauge. They are prompt and untiring In carrying out the instructions of the state grange lu legislative mutters. There are now upward of 700 subordinate granges In the state and 40 Pomouas. Since Jun. 1 last 53 subordinates and 4 Pomona granges have been organized. The to tal membership of the Order in the state now exceeds 45,000. Tweiit '-nlue Grange States. There are now twenty-nine state granges, of which Maine,. New Hamp shire, Vermont, Connecticut, New York, Pennsylvania, Ohio, Michigan und Indiana have so thoroughly organ ized their Jurisdiction that there are from one to twenty granges in nearly every county. In New Hampshire and Vermont there Is a grunge, sometimes two. In each township. There are also granges lu Canada, und the Dominion grange always sends a delegate to the national grunge meetings in this coun try. A Nov Hump hire Method. The excellent standing of the subor dinate granges in New Hampshire is known to all. They take pride In tho work, and the state grange encourages them by offering a prize portable cabi net desk for superior excellence in llt rary work. Thirty or more desks will be awarded this yeur. Frizes are also ffered for excellence in degree work. A Gift to Chautauqua. Caroline A. Hall, niece of O. H. Kel ley and closely associated with him in the formative period of the Order, to Whom is indebted the plan of allowing women membership In the Order, has made a gift of $50 to grange headquar ters at Chautauqua.

First Use of Silos Took Place Over a Hundred Years Ago, The preservation of green food In silos commenced more than one hun dred years ago. In 178G Symonils wrote of Italians preserving fresii leaves for cattle In casks and pits In the ground. In 1843 Johnston, an Englishman, published an article on preserving green clover, grass, or vet ches In pits, basing his statements on observations made In Ocrmany. Pits were dug 10 to 12 feet square and about as deep, the sides lined with wood, and a clay floor made. The Rreen stuff was placed In the pit, and plenty of salt scattered over It from time to time. When the pit was full, the top was well salted and a close fitting cover of boards was placed over it Dirt to the depth of a foot or so was thrown on the cover to exclude a'r In a few days, after the contents had fermented and settled, the cover was removed and more green fodder was thrown In and the cover again put on. In commenting on the contents of such a pit Johnston notes that the grass when Uiub fermented had the appearance of being boiled, had a sharp acid taste, and was greedily eaten by cattle. In England, between 1860 and 1870, Samuel Jonas stored tares or rye, cut green and chopped, and fed the fer mented material on an extensive scale. Adolph Relhlen, a sugar manufac turer of Stuttgart, Germany, probably stored the first green maize In pits. He also preserved green beet leaves and beet pulp in silos with much suc cess. He had lived a number of years In the United States, and on his re turn to Germany experimented with large dent corn, the seed of which he carried with him from this country. As the crop did not always mature In that climate, the green crop was pitted after the manner of the beet refuse. This Work was conducted between 1860 and 1870, and the results were published in the German and French papers of the time. The use of the silo was strongly urged upon the peo- I pie of France, and considerable atten tion was given to the subject. Many farmers built silos on the basis of ' Reihlen's experience. In 1877, A. Gof fart of France wrote a book on "en silage" which was translated Into Eng lish and published in New York a year or two later. ! The first to prepare silage In the United States were Manly Miles, of Michigan, who built two silos In 1875; and Francis Morris, of Maryland, who commenced experiments in this line In 1876. One of the earliest experi menters with silage in the United States was John M. McBryde, whoJe Investigations began at the University of Tennessee in 1870. Several other silos were also built by people in the Eastern States within the next few years. In 1882, in a report on silage by the United States Department of ! Agriculture statements were publish ed from 91 persons who had silos, 81 of which were In Atlantic seaboard States. No doubt numerous others were in use at that time. At the present time the silo Is found on many thousands of farms in the United States especially in dairy regions, and it may be considered a well-established feature In American farm economy where stock feeding is practiced. In fact, the use of silage for beef cattle Is meeting with more : and more favor. I The first silos made in the United ; States were of stone or brick. Tho I walls were thick.very strong.and were covered with a smooth coat of ce ! mont on the Inside. These were very expensive; consequently wooden silos were triod, and It was found that very satisfactory results could be se cured with these at a much less coat than with stone or brick silos. "Peanut Meal" as Fodder." A grade of food for animals known as "peanut meal" is made by grinding the hulls, Immature peanuts, and those of -Inferior grades, Buch as pops and saps, and a certain proportion of sound nuts mixed with other Ingredi ents. This is carefully prepared, hav ing all the dirt and foreign matter eliminated. The fiber Is also to a large extent extracted, as well as the fluffy matter, and the meal is probably in a favorable condition for stock. The composition compares favorably with that of many foods now on the market. There is nothing In this pre paration which can not be secured by the farmer himself without any ex pense, If he will take ordinary care in separating his marketable peas from the refuse stock before selling, which latter would be a valuable ad dition to the somewhat meager sup ply of winter fodder ordinarily pro vided by the farmers In the South for Stock other than their work animals. Second Crop of Seed Potatoes. Recently the claim has been mode that second-crop potatoes excel or dinary potatoes for seed purposes. It is undoubtedly true that unsprouted sotond-crop seed potatoes are better thr.n sprouted potatoes from the main crop. This makes the use of second crvp seed popular in portions of the So'ith where unsprouted seed pota to are difficult to obtain. Recent experiments at the Kansas Experi ment Station Indicate a superiority foi second-crop seed even as far north as Manhattan, Kan. There In 1890 second-crop seed produced a crop 27 per cent, larger than main crop seed of the same varieties. In the follow ing year the excess was 70 per cent. In favor of seed potatoes of the second crop. Nearly every great achievement of humanity was evolved from a crank's theory. . TERRORS OF DEATH VALLEY. Death or Madness Threatens All Who Attempt Long Journey to Mines. Ran Francisco. Recent discoveries of gold In tho heort of what lias for a long time been the famous Death Val ley district, at a point known as Fur nace Crock, have attracted tho atten tion of thousands of would-bo miners, but only a frw have had the temerity to brave the terrible valley during tho warm months. Only the experienced desert pros pector can endure the boat, which teems to dry up tho tissue and to causo an Intolernblo thirst. It will surprise anyone who Is unfamiliar with the desert to see the results of this heat on men, animals and even on Inanimate things like wagons and harness. All through Death Valley as well as along the fringe of both the Mojave and the Colorado deserts the atmos phere is so devoid of moisture that ev erything Is as dry as bone. The new arrival finds that all superfluous fat and flesh appear to melt away from htm. He has to take up several holes in his belt and he has to drink gal lons of water every day where he or dinarily drnnk glasses. In fact, the system craves so much water that when it cannot bo procured the man's strength fails rapidly, and to be without It, even In the shade, is sure death after a day or two. To run out of water on the trad and to bo forced to travel over the desert In the fierce glare of the sun moans Insanity In a few minutes and death In a few hours. Not even the seasoned resident can resist this heat for long. The only recourse of the old resident who loses his water supply In any way Is to seek shelter under a mesquite bush and to wait until the sun goes down. Then he must hit the trail and reach a well before sunrise, or, unless he has wonderful vitality, his skeleton will be added to tho large collection that lines all the roads through Death's Valley. Nothing else puts the terror of the desert Into the tenderfoot like com ing upon one of these skeletons, us ually with no trace of clothing near by. If search Is made one may find the clothing not far away, where the poor victim, crazed by the heat, has cast It. The tendency of every one who goes Insane on the desert from heat Is to strip and then travel In a circle till he drops from weakness. By many of these skeletons will be found holes which despairing hands have dug In the hot desert sands In the vain search for the life-giving wa ter. All the papers printed near the Mo jave Desert are trying to discourage miners, especially of the tenderfoot class, from rushing into Death Valley during the hot weather. The only big company in the whole region is tho Borax Company, on Furnace Creek. The managers have stringent orders not to sell hay or horse feed to any one, and several prospectors have been compelled to return after reaching the new mining district, as their horse feed gave out and they couldn't buy any. The company has given water, food and horso feed to several pros pectors who would have perished ex cept for such aid, but it is dangerous to venture into a country where money will not buy the necessaries of life. DURHAM WHITE STEVENS, who has been designated by Japan as diplomatic advisor of the Emperor of Corea under the new Japanese-Corcan alliance, was born in Washington, D. C, in 1854, and was educated there and at Oberlin college, from which In stitution he graduated In 1871. In 1873 he was appointed secretary of the United States legation In Jaoan by President Grant. He served in that capacity until 1883, when he resigned and returned to the United States. He then entered the service of the Japanese government as English sec retary to the legation at Washington. In 1884 he was ordered to Tokio for service In the foreign office. In the winter of 1884-85 he accompanied Count Inouye to Corea when the latter went as ambassador to negotiate a settlement of the difficulties arising from the assault upon Mr. Takezoye, Japanese minister to Corea. For the services he rendered on that occasion Mr. Stevens received from the Em peror the decoration of the third class of the Order of th Rising Sun. For services rendered In the war between Japan and China Mr. Stevens receiv ed the decoration of the second class of the Sacred Treasure, Georgia Plans Silk Culture. Atlanta, Ga. Louis Borris Magld, of Georgia, hug completed arrange ments to obtain In Europe machinery and labor which will give a powerful Impetus to silk raising In this coun try. Euthuslastlc Southerners who have watched the enterprise say that soon such a thing as a bad year will be unknown and that farmers of Dixie will be raising silk at $5 a pound.
