The Grange In Maine.
Mr. O. Gardner, master of the Maine
state grange, says that at the close of
1902 there were 318 subordinate grang
es in Maine, of which 178 own their
halls, while nineteen more were build
ing halls. The value of the 178 halls
with their furnishings is put at $373,-
330, an average of more than $2,000
apiece; the value of the real estate
owned by subordinate granges is $79,-
000, making a total value of $452,330
for subordinate grange property in
Maine. The membership is 35,000,
averaging 150 to each grange. Three
Maine granges have more than GOO
members each, while several have
more than 500.
The grange teaches kindness to ani
mals. The grange at Montville, Vt.,
practices it. That grange has built a
commodious stable In connection with
its hall improvements which accom
modates thirty-two horses.
What the grange has been and has
done are worthy of study and praise.
But the past is only an earnest of a
much worthier future. Our best his
tory is yet to be made. American
Grange Bulletin.
The Future of Agriculture.
As I view the future of agriculture
In America the organization of farmers
is a necessity for their success. Study,
Investigation, the taking, reading, writ
ing for the agricultural press become
a matter of necessity and duty which
we cannot Ignore or escape if the
American farmer hopes to hold his
relative position in the industrial in
terests of our matchless country.—
Aaron Jones, Master National Grange.

Mr. E. P. Powell, the well known ag
ricultural writer, has this to say of the
grange In the Tribune Farmer: "I am
not a member of a grange, but I believe
In them with all my heart. They are
doing an Immense amount of work,
and it is of a very wholesome sort. The
social influence Is as good as the edu
cative. It has the advantage of bring
ing together husbands and wives, as
all clubs should. The grange work, so
far as I have watched It, has been in
variably for sound legislation, for hon
est elections, for progressive farm
work, for improved institutes and for
the general social welfare of farm
