Many personal letters should he written where a weak lecturer is located, and at all times let the lecturers feel that the state lecturer is their servant in time of need. Secondarily comes ftie field work through picnic addresses, I'omona grange talks, lecturers' conferences and occasionally a visit to a subordi nate grange \vh -m it is in everyday working orde;\ This field work gives tiie much e\i personal touch to the lecture work, although we huld that of the two the printed page and personal letter can best do our duty. The work of 0.-g.:ni:'.iug granges should not he ex peeled of a slate lecturer unless it be where comparatively few granges ex ist and the combined force of grange officials in the state is needed to ex tend lite organization. The state lec turer should never lose sight of the fact that the greatest progress out Order can make must come through the subordinate grange, where the rank and file of members are to lie helped.

Some of our Democratic friends are putting up a howl because congress has ordered canal supplies to be bought in this country. Why not? The ques tion of tariff has nothing to do with the case, it is purely a question of patriotism, of helping out your own family. Exactly the same thing ap plies to communities. The man who deserts his home merchants to patron ize those of another borough merely because he can save a penny or two shows a poot specimen of public spirit. We are glad that at least every Repub lican from New England went on rec ord as favoring such purchases. Keep *he money at home, where the taxes are assessed and paid. Waltham Press-Tribune.
