The Grange Initiation Kites Ke
vealed. Persons who are about to be
come members of the Order of Patrons of
Husbandry, before joining should read the
following account of the terrible ordeal
through which they will have to pass, as re
vealed by the Randolph, O., Enterprise '
One being brought into the ante-room of
the lodge (Greengrocer Temple, No 101) I
was told that I had been balloted for and
accepted. My iuformant, who was secure
ly masked by what I afterward learned was
a large burdock leaf perforated with holes
for the eyes, told me that if I valued my
life it would be neccei-sary for me to strip.
As I did consider that of considerable
worth to me, and as he italicised his wishes
by carelessly playing with a sevenshouter,
I withdrew from my garments with eager
ness. My masked friend then furnished
mo with the reualia of the first degree-
called 'The Festive Plowboy' which eou-1
sisted merely of one large cabbage leaf at-1
tached to a waist-band of potato vim s. In
this airy costume I was conducted to the
door, where my companion gave three dis
tinct raps. (1 was securely blindfolded by
binding a slice of rutabaga over each eye.)
A sepulchral voice from wilhiu asked :
'Who come ?'
My guide answered : A youthful argicul
turist who desires to become a granger.'
Sepulchral Voice 'Have you looked him
carefully over ?
Guide 4 1 have, uoble gate-keeper."
,S. y.'Do you find any agricultural
marks about his person V
Guide 'I do.'
S. V. 'What are they r
Guide 'The candidate has carroty hair,
reddish whiskers and a turnup nose.'
S. V. 'Tis well. Why do you desire
to become a granger V
Guide (answering for caud;iate)-'That
I may be thereby better enabled to harrow
up the feelings of the rascally politicians.'
S. V. 'You will bring in the candidate.
My worthy tripling, as )ou cannot see, 1
will cause you to feet that you are received
at the door on the three points of the pitch
fork, piercing the region of the stomach,
which is to teach you the three great vir
tuesfaith, hope and charity. Faith iu
yourself, hope for cheaper farm machinery,
aud charity for the lightning-rod peddler.
You will now be harnessed, and in repre
sentation of the horse, Pegasus, will be
tested as to endurance and wind.'
The candidate is here attached to a small
imitation plow, by means of a hempen har
ness. A dried puropkin-vinc is put in his
mouth lor a bit and bridle he is made to
get down upon all fours, the guide seize the
brittle, and urged on by a granger armed
with a Canada thistle, which be vigorously
applies at the terminus of the spine, the
candidate is galloped three limes around
the room. While making the circuit the
the members arise and sing :
Get up and dust, you bully boy
Who wouldn't be a v rancor ?
If the thh-tle'e prick don't cause you joy.
To feeling yeu an estranged, ah !
After this violent exercise he is rubbed
dry with corn-cobs, beeswaxed where this
tlcd, and brought standing up before the
great chief the most worshipful pumpkin
head.
M. W. P- II. 'Why do you desire to
be a granger V"
Candidate (answering for himself)
'That I may learu to extinguish sewing
machine agents."
M. W. P. II. 'Have your hands been
hardened with toil V
Candidate 'Not extensively, but, then I
am not running for office."
M. W. P. 11. 'Tis well, for our lodges
contain -everal who are supposed to be
ready to sacrifice themselves I'm their con
stituents. Do you feel pretty smart this
evening V!
Candidate 'Yes, nlietc ttic Vustlo i.g
on.'
M. W. P. II. (savagely) 'Give me a
chaw of tobacker ?'
Candidate searches himself thoroughly,
but as there is no place about him to stick
a pocket, tries to explain, but the nit
worshipful pumpkin head interrupts him
with :
'Never mind, ray dear young friend, I
am well aware that iu your present condi
tion you can no more furnish your friends
with the weed than Adam couid be com
fortable in a plug hat and tight boots. It
is merely to teach you the great lesson !
economy doing to others as you'd lue to
ha e them do to you. You will now 1
conducted to the most eminent squash-producer,
who will teach you the grand hailing
sign of distress. The sign, my worthy
brother, will insure you against many of
the ills of the agriculturist amongst others
against droughts and being bit by the fero
cious grasshopper.'
The candidate is now conducted to the
most eminent squash-producer, who thus
says : 'My worthy brother, 1 will now in
vest you with the order of the Festive
Plowboy. which you have well won by your
heroic achievement while harnessed may
you ever wear it with pleasure to yourself
and may it be a means of terror t your
nemies.'
(The M. E. P. P. then proceeds to invest
the candidate with the regalia of the Fes
tive Plowboy, which consists of a long to
mato necklace.) 'The grand hailing sign
of distress is made by gently closing the
left eye, laying the t ight forelingcralongside
the n se, and violeutly wagging the ears.
It requires practice, but the advantages are
intense. It also has an important significa
tion, which you will do well to heed. The
closing of the eye signifies that in all your
dealings with mankind, you are bouud to
have an eye to business. Laying the linger
alongsidc the nose is emblematical of wis
dom, and places you at once among the
'knowiug ones'. This is extremely handy
in prognosticating or new weather, aud
saves the wear and tear oi almanacs.
'Wagging the cars signifies sublimity of pur
pose, aud is thought ti be emblematical of
childhood's happy hours. It is also sup
ed by some profound scholars to have a
distinct reference to apple dumplings, hut
this fact is somewhat obscured by the dust
of ages. Iu taken that you are one ol us
you will now be branded.'
This ceremony is uncommonly impre-ive
a'ld consists of two brands. Tiny are
both applied 'while the iron is hot,' and
consist of one letter of the alphabl e ach.
The first is a large letter S on which you
will please sit while the other Utter it ap
plied to the stomach. The letter S, my
worthy chicki n, signifies scoojH-d and re
fers to railroad mono iol its. It is also sup
posed to indicate the seat of learning the
spot where the old time, teacher hunted for
brains with the ferrule. The second letter
is C, and is applied, as I said before, to the
stomach. It has a double meaning. First
the application is an agricultural one,
'corn crib.' and has reference to the sto
mach as being the great receptacle for
Bourbon whiskey. But, brother, do not he
diligent in finding a home market for your
corn. The second application of the letter
C. my distracted infant, is got hold of as
follows : W hen a granger desires to ascer
tain 'for sure' if there is another of the or
der in the room, he raises himself gently by
the slack of his of his unmentionables
scratches his off thigh by his near hoot,
and remarks in a voice of thunder : 'Are
there any grangers about?' The answer
in 'Jeeso wax.' The inquirer then says,
'Let us sec,' (letter C.) and the other party
must immediately pull out his stomach and
disclose the brand.
These brands are applied in such a man
ner that I am enabled to assure you that
they will wash.
I was here interrupted, Mr. Kditor, by
A volley fired into the open window, evid
ently intended for me. Fortunately I es
caM;d without a scratch, and which is of
more cousequence, succeeded in bringing
off my precious manuscript. This is about
all there is in the ceremony of any import
ance I must leave the country at once
armed men are at my heels they know 1
am writing to expose them. Yon may
hear from me again by mail, if I should j
deem it best to expose tho other degrees.!
Until then adieu.

Oat Hay. One of our farming friends,
wlni resides ntar Philadelphia and Las a
milk trade tells us that for the paRt four
yenrs he has cut oals for hay and has found
so much good to result from the practice,
thai he is thiukin;i of making it a complete
substitute for hay fir regular cow feed, as
far as other circumstances will allow. He
cuts the oats just while the grain is form
ing and while the whole plant is yet oreen ;
and takes rather more pains in the drying,
as the oat is rather more likely to mould
thau ihe ordinary graas. He claims that
; some objection?. In this part of the coun
! try, at least, if March be wet, or the season
I late, oats cannot be got in tiil the middle of
April, and it is one of those things which
requires to be in very early in order to do
certainly well. Aain. the oat is more
fastidious iu regard to soil than grass is.
It often happens that land which seeis
favorable to a ooj crop of oats go far as
the grain is concerned, makes very little
I straw ; and a field of oats not much over a
foot high would not be very profitable as a
'forage crop." Then aain animal labor
must be spent on an oat crop, while on a
pood stand of timothy, the same howinjj
will do always for two, and sometimes for
tl,rt'e je-ars. This saving of labor alone
; 8cems to us to be a Very strou" ite.ll which
I J m
i ought not to be overlooked.
Yet it seems quite likely that this oat hay
idea might very often be taken advantage
of to good purpose, and so as lhe corre
spondents often modestly say, we offer it
for whatever it is worth. Germantoicn

Drying Off Cows. A Vermont far
mer says that at the period of drying off
cows he has found, "particularly with
such cows as are in the highest condition,
that clotted milk is very apt to co led in
one or perhaps all the quarters of the bag,
after milking has been discontinued, and
sometimes even, much Liter, after. I have
supposed the How of milk to be entirely ar
rested and the bag quite dry. A this se
cretion goes on, unless the clotted matter
is withdrawn, the teat and odder become
more and distended, inflammation ensues
I and putrefaction of the contents sets in. I
make no question but that neglect of this
malter is the cause of permanent mischief
to the udder, and particularly of that con
tracted condition of the muscles which re
gulate the passage of the milk from the
bag into the teat, a condition discovered
not unfrequently, and with surprise as well
as regret when cows come into milk in the
spring, and which ever after renders the
milking of such cows Tery irksome."
Peanut Culture. Peanuts require
very similar cultivation to beans. The
ground requires to be well plowed and har
rowed, and either thrown nn into ridges
or furrowed in'.o check rows. The drills
may be 24 to 27 inches apart, and the seed
may be dropped 18 inches apart in the
rows. Two uuts should be dropped in
each place. These must be carefully shell
ed by hand, without breaking the skin.
The cultivation con-ists in plowing as they
grow, and keeping them free from weeds.
When they begiu to blossom cultivation
most be discontinued, and weeding be done
by hand. The plants then strike into the
soil to seed, and the soil must previouslj
be kept loose and mellow to facilitate this
process. When ripe the sides of the rowi
are split with the plow, and the nuts pull
ed np by hand, and left to dry upon thi
ground. A Sot'th Jer&ymtn.
Work fou Fruit Trees. The follow
ing is a wash used by William Saunders
of the Government gardens at Washington
Put half a bushel of lime and four pound
of powdered sulphur in a tight barrel
slacking the lime with hot water, th
mouth of the barrel being covered with ;
cloth ; this is reduced to the consistency 0
ordinary whitewash, aud at the time of ar
plication, half an ounce of carbolic acid
added to each gallon of liquid. Mr. Saur
ders says: "I generally apply it in th
spring, before the leaves make their aj
pearatice, but lam convinced that it woul
be more effective if applied later ; but the
it is difficult to do so when the tree is in ft
liage." Mr. Saunders applies the wasl
not only to the stem of the tree, but, t
some extent, to the main branches.
