lorMuii «s State Master,
The hnmini of tlio ('onnectfeut
; st iio wan held in Hertford Jast
lifoiidi. AVortliy Master I'atterson
ported that the past year had been«one
■ of itdvancement in the Order. He com
i menled favorably on the excellent ritu
alistic work being done by the granges
I throughout the state. There was an
unusual array of talent at the public
meeting held one afternoon during the
i session. Among the speakers were the
i governor and lieutenant governor of
, Connecticut, the governor of New
; Hampshire, National Master Jones and
; others.
Several Important resolutions of a
i public nature were adopted. One
against ihe free seed distribution as<at
I present conducted being of so general
interest, we reproduce it in full. It Is
lis follows;
Resolved. That tho Connecticut state
grange In annual session convened records
protest in emphatic and unqualified
' i.-rniH against thp entire system of free
! .' i>il distribution by tho government as at
.. i. believing that the day
lias passed when such distribution is of
any value to or is cared for by any con
. a ruble number of farmers or gardeners
this st ite. li is a misuse of the public
funds and serves no good purpose. If
. .. la. wand desirable seeds can be ob
t. in i liy the government not generally
la wo in f!l sections of the country, such
<! stribution. along the lines of the original
; ai|. ■ , is desirable and should be con
; ; a: i, but free distribution of common
: ids or so called novelties la a promls
i .ous manner is unwarranted, besides
loading the mails unnecessarily, to the
•i d "trlment of other and more im
; i' irtant interests. We therefore respect
l'ully reiiuct-t our representatives in con
■ opi osa further appropriation* for
this purpose.
The vruni'tn suffrage resolution going
the rounds of the state granges because
no doubt of ils adoption by the na
tional grange was reported upon un
favorably by the committee having it
in charge, but when submitted to
! grange Its report was overruled and
i tlie resolution adopted. It pledges the
: .in e to support legislation to grant
political rights to women,
j Oil the favorable report of the eom
, matee on education the grange passed
; liie resolution requesting school officers
; and teachers to examine the system of
; instruction in operation in Batavia, N.
| Y., known as the Kennedy system,
(.•ii tlie favorable report of the commit
tee on good of the Order, a resolution
was passed urging the legislature to
so amend the act in relation to agri
eu.iural fairs as to forbid Ktate aid to
lUose at which gambling or illegal
liquor selling may be allowed.

ABANDONED FARMS COING.
Summer ReNidentM Are Huyhifc Them
In \e%v HitiiiifNliire.
Governor Baclielder, lecturer of the
national grange, lias issued an address
ou X, > Hampshire's abandoned farms,
ia which be says;
"An encouraging feature of New
Hampshire life at the opening of the
new year is the extent to which the
slate's abandoned farms have been
eeieptid by prosperous and well pleased
fo . r parents. The lirst statistics col
li eo'd bv the commissioner show 1,343
abandoned farms within the state. The
pro] ;;i in of unoccupied farm laud
v.'i.iiiu tiie state grows less with each
year that passes.
"liy far the larger number, however,
of the purchasers of New Hampshire's
abandoned farms have been summer
re i a: a vacation visitors, permanent
ly d liiilellcd for from two to eight
months of the year among our bills. A
eanvass of such residents, now being
in do by the state board of agriculture
and licit completed at the time of writ
big, has given thus far the names of
—. Kid owners of summer homes in our
state, most of the said homes having
In u created from what were once
abaiu'.ened farms.
"it is estimated that these 2,100
adopted sons of the state, 'by tbem
■ elves, their families, their guests and
their employees, add to the population
of New Hampshire every summer at
least 20,000 people. Their holdings of
■ .ii estate represent a permanent in
j vestment of ..Ti,000,000, and their an
anal expenditures for all purposes
| within the state are at least half as
! much."
i The Androscoggin (Me.) I'omona
; ; rainre has a membership of 2.(53(1, and
there are '.itriu Patrons in that county.
Maine is the third state in the Union
us to grange membership.
The parcels post Is favored by the
| grange. There is no good reason why
this country should not have as good
n ail facilities as foreign countries
, have.
The legislative committee of the na
tional prange has recently visited Wash
iiigbui iu the interest of the Order and
I of farmers generally.
Tin r. i nunicnt to be erected in Wash
in.rton to 'the memory of the seven
founders of the Order Is to cost $25,000.
The homes of fifty of the members of
the Yi rktown (X. Y.) grange are con
nected by telephone.
The good roads discussion ia on la
earnest.
