Thie Farn dnd Housohold. A ‘county agricultaral gociety, to be what it purports to be, must have the interests of the agricultural portion of the county at heart. This might be said to be.an axiom. :How can this be, unless the whole governing power is interested_ in agric}gltlu@ as well as disintérested in its-official eapacity toward everything coming under its jurisdietion? - ! What is the use of appointing Directors, who never notice their appointments, or if they do, never exereise, or are not allowed to exercise, any directory power? ' ~ ‘Why appoint committees on the days of the Fair, who are called upon to act at once upon matters of which they more than likely know- notliing, and if otherwise, give up reluctantly their purpose in coming and enter

half-souled into the work% (What wonder that awards are misplaced or out of all proportion, even to the most casual observer! Let the farmers interested in the bettering of their vocation, in each township of the county or district, which . supports the Fair, name their choice - for Director and alternate, or Dirde- - tors with the knowledge on their part that business meetings must be attended, make their votes equal to any of'thé Executive power on matters ( vitallto/the interest of the Society or §of the farmers of the county. At their meeting for devising a premiumn list, require the appaintment of commnittees who are acquainted with the matters given to their charge, and let directors and committee-men._be paid a reasonable compensation for the time necessarily spent in performing their duties, if they will not serve otherwise. Make it the Secretary’s duty té notify the directors and com- ~ fnitteu-men of their appointment, personally, and have their; positive ac- ~ ceptance of the place and a promise ta perform the duties assigned’ them. Let the names of committees be published with their class in the premiun list, so that persons proposing to exhibit tay know, with whom they have to do. Place everything of the same nature in the same class, thereby: dividing: the work more properly and saving muech toa miscellaneous cominittee. :

Make premiums correspond to utility more than to show. Regarding _lnachinery ikitended for the henefit of the farmer which may be brought to the Fair for his inspection, due consideration should be given toits bulk, and weight and consequent cost of placing it there. Inthe horse classes, give good premiums to good family, farm, and draught horses and growing stock only. In 'the ecattle class, ‘more should he done for native stock while not neglecting breeds for beef, milk anil butter, Give good premiums to mileh cows and sepdv}:(mtro ones to butter cows. . Require careful experiments in measure and weight—the statement to be made in :\\'riting. : Gi\'e, also, a good premium to qtiality of butter, and require a statement from each maker of the process in all its minutie, this to be published with the proceedings; of the Society. It will inure to the benefit in more ways than one of both writer and reader. At a winter meeting of the Society, when officers may be chosen for the ensuing year, give premi“ins on thethest acreage of all farm " crops, the f{{'llolg method of culture to be given in writing. ' It would be a good plan to give a premium on written statements of the best house and barn for ‘farm purposes occupied or built by the writer. : These suggestions are made in good faith by the writér, meant only for the best good of the farming community, with the hope that some move will be made out of the ruts in avhich most of ' our county fairs have' for some tinie been running. i [f there must be a gradual weaning - off from the race course, let horses -owned in the district supporting the Fair trot or run singly, against time only, and no premiiums whatever bhe permitted. sl v Every other calling aided by art and ~science is up the inclined plane of “progress, and why should the farmer he content with less for liis? "

GOOD MEN MAKE GOOD HORSES, A horse is mever vietous or intraetable without a direct cause. If a horse is restless or timorous, ‘you may be sure that these faults arise from defects in his education. He has either been treated awkwardly or brutally. Commence the education of & horse at his birth; accustom him to.the presence, voice and sight of mau; speak and act gently: caress him, and "do not startle him. All chastisements or eruelty confuses the animal and makes him wild., — They are good men who make cood horses.—Fachange.

Curious Facts. . Recent experiments .have shown very conclusively that ‘Gold blooded (animals hehave like plants with regard to freezing temperatures. Thus .they die at different temperatures:.— the honey bee at one degree; the spider at three degrees; the flesh fly survives a temperature of six degrees; the silk wormn’s éggs at twenty-one degrees. As there are plants in which the water may be frozen without their dying, there are, also, some animals in which this occurs, The silk worm's egg may be frozen solid without extinguishing life. lln the spiders and flies exposed to freezing temperature, in the course of experiments, a part of the water was frozen; but as contraction of the muscles still took place in a temperature at which pieces of meat were frozen stiff, it is improba‘ble that the muscles were frozen.— Exchange. -, .

My. Emerson, while in Rome las winter, visited the studio of Mr. Tilton, the American artist, whose smallest bits of canvas bring an almost ineredible price. Mr. Tilton, wishing art to pay a tribute to genius, took from its hanging a picture hamdsomely framed .and presented it to his guest. The next day Mr. Emerson, overtaken by a stinging of conscience, came again, and in his hand was the empty'frame which he handed to Mr. Tilton, with this remark: “Mr. Tilton, 1 accept gladly your painting, but I must return the frame, for I cannot keep anything of so great pecuniary value.”

THE PATRONS OF HUSBANDRY. [From the Rural Carolinian for June, 1873.] Much interest has lately been aroused throughout the United States upon the subject of the “Patrons of Husbandry,” and innumerable inquiries made as to “Who are they?” or “\Vhatlis it?” It is the purpose of thi a@“ sle e = ili.ﬂlﬁ tlle&mﬁlﬁplinian. s The Order of Patrons is a secret association of persons, males over eighteen years of age and females over .sixteen, interested in agricultural pursuits, and beund together by mystic ties for the purpose of mutual benefit ‘and protection. The organization consists of subordinate or local Granges, State Granges, and a National Grange. The word Grange, |derived from§@the Latin Graniwm, simply means a farm with all its outfit, buildings, lots, and fields, and is therefore a more appropriate and symholical word than either club or lodge. L

~ According to the constitution of the Order, there are nine yhale and four female officers in cach local Grange, elected annually.” The pre= siding oflicer is styled the Master, and if not re-elected is of course a Past Master. 'The State Grange-has likewise nine oflicers, and its membership is epmposed of the Masters and Past Masters of the local Granges; hence there Inust be nine local Granges in a State before there can be a State Grange. = The National Grange is composed of the Masters and Past Masters of the State Granges. This beautiful organization prevents con= centration of power in the National Grange, located at Washington city, and the entire system constitides a grand net-work of reciprocal assistance that spreads all ovér the thousands of agriculturists throughout the Union, who may become Patrons. In this organization the little State of Rhode Island, represented by her single Master, has the same potent voice in the National Council that Texas may have; and South Carolina, if represented with ability, is equally powerful there with the great State of New York. So much for the organization. What of its object? - ¢ It proposes to further the interests of agriculture ‘in every possible way. The organization of a Grange in any locality induces a community of thought, thereby increasing the sociality of the neighborhood and improving it intellectually. If the order did nothing more than this, who could measure its*®ErHtages tor the people of this Uniongsvasf m@jority of whom are agriedlturists? “And, throughout the South, this feature of the Order should commend itself as a. sort of quickening spirit divinely appointed; for we are all interested in agriculture, and at this moment society seems to be rapidly segregating, and childvren by the thousands are growing up in ignorance. To check this ‘disintegration, to.banish ignorance from our doors, to elevate the farmer intellectually, and to;teaech him he has mind as well as muscle, is one of the grand objects of the Patrons of lusbandry. .

: But it goes further. It proposes to impress upon the farmer the mournful, but long since patent truth, that he has heretofore been the pack-horse for all other parties? that he has beén ‘the dupe, the very scapegoat, of speculators and middle-men of every shape, | size, color, and desc{iption; that he has rights which, from ignorance, he has never dared maintain; that if he | fas the energy and patience to labor diligently, from seed time to harvest, the certainly should have the intelligence to know what he never lias known—the true, proper marketable value of his hard earned products; that if in Union there is strength, so in this organization ends may be aimed at and effeets produced whigh, in the future, will relieve the farmer from that industrial thraldom to which he has been subjected in the past. These, and many other similar lessons, practical every whit, -and yrofitable to the purse as well as to | }lw !'f‘niw %th Patrongiof Hushandl%;te 16 tol thoge farmners: all over | the Union who will unite with the Order; and {wherefore should any farmer refuse to do so? : The advantages from organization need not be discussed in this article; they are trite’ to every reflecting mind. Where it otherwise, we would seldom hear of Boards of Trade,. Chambers of ' Comurerce, - Trades Unions, and the like. Mercantile 'men, and mechanics of every kind, appreciate fully the value to their respective vocations of union, concert, and singleness of purpose. But farm ers. everywhere have always acted as though their vocation aimed at nothing, and as if their duty was to labor) patiently, year in and year out, to produce for market: something that other people set a price upon. And the most menial laborer, the most abject slave to such apolicy as this, has ‘ulwnys been the Southern cotton planter. = His harvest time seldom ‘ ever comes ; his moments of recreation are always in the future. The work required, the time consumed, and the expenses incurred to prepare his erop for sale, so surely burthen him with debt, that, year after year, he goes a begger into magkefgghmbly receiving for his wares, §ﬁﬂ§ﬁl§l3 lﬁ;s"ﬁnaa-. ters are disposed’to give. The Patrons of Husbandry propose in a thousand ways to put a stop to this, impoverishing policy. . = e ‘But, says straight-jacket, your Order is a secret organization. To be sure it is, and is therefore to be prized ; otherwise, it would have no cohesivehess. #sk any man if his most valuable thoughts. are not kept to himself 7 Why do all deliberative bodies hold their “executive sessions” (their most important meetings) in secret ? Ask the merchant why his “cost mark” san enigma? Wherefore are we taught that our right hand should not know about the doings of our left ? To my mind this objection in futile. But.the Southern Bourbon accuses the Order of heing an “ism” from Yankee land. 8o be it. If it be good and worthy, acceépt 'it, even through it come from“ Nazareth.” Let him who opposes the Order upon, the grounds of its being of Yankee origin, ask himself the questions, Whence comes the hat I wear? Whence the very shirt that covers my nakedness ? Whenee the hoe that chops my eotton ? Whence the greater portion of my daily subsistence? His answers will relieve me from further iargument on this point. j ‘ But you admit women, says another; do you advocate woman’s rights ? Fortanately the constitution precludes the introdnetion of any political or religions discussion in the work of the Order, but it requires a certain proportion of females in every Grange. This wise provision will enhance its social wdrth. The presence of women will give to the Order virtue, | dignity, and character. Were farm- | ers never seen in their associations with the outside world except in the company of Waen, they would he far purer mén. Indolence, ignorance, profanity, vulgarity, and all the baser emotions of man’s nature are ever held in abeyance in the presence of pure and regned; iod women,

‘A Mania. ‘ A worthy farmer had a passion for I collecting the skins of animals.— | Every creature that he could shoot, | or ensnare, he dexterously skinned; ! and the larger skins he stretched upon | the Bide of his barn, and the smaller' sorno SHE AT A-Bia spar(monte. He hadino taste foppgintings; and ‘his walls were covere dawith I§he skins of weasels, raccoons, opossumis, rabbits ‘ and#the intersticeal: spaces ‘were ingeniously filled with the sking of rats, squirrels; moles and mice. Now, the efféet of all this was not unpleasant to the eye. It was vastly more agreeable to the proprietor than a collection of the “old masters” must - be, now and then to the collectors, when ‘a doubt arises, as it sometimes will, 1f the “masters.are really as old” as they were bought for. Be all this as it may, the worthy farmer . went on catehing and skinning almest every living creature that came in his way, and which was a lawful subject for his operations. He had a son, a niere child, who took great pleasure instanding by, and watching his father’s operations, whenever a ereature was being skinned. The child’s grand‘mother sickened and died, which afflicted the poor little fellow very: much; and the day after her death, he went up to his father and said, in the simplicity of his heart: “Daddy, when are you going to skin granny ?”

~THE model weekly newspaper of Indiana is the Terre Haute Mail. It has a department which is presided over by a mysterious personage known as “Town-Talk” He has something good every week, Recently he made the acquaintance of “the honest wood hauler,” at Terre Haute. What he has to say of him will apply with equal force to many other towns we Xnow of. Town Talk visited the house of a farmer friend, and while there rode into the woods with him to get*aload of wood, They drove beside a pile of stove wood. T 'P.sat in the“wagow while the honest wood hauler began throwing in the wood in the most promiscuous manner. Wishing tomake himself useful, T. T. commenced piling the wood nicely in the” wagon box, but he was stopped with the remark, “that kind'of work is played out.” The wood was then thrown in loosely and without any order, until the box was nearly full, when it was covered over, rounded 'up carefully and made asnice a looking load ef wood as one wonld wish to see. “It] don’t take as much wood by ene third! this way .as it does to pile it in theway you were doing,” said the honest wood hauler as they drove out into the road. T.T.s eyes were opened to a novel feature, -to him, in- the wood business, but he is loth to helieve there are many such wood haulers. T. T. learns of some -who draw a large, nicely arranged load' to the edge of town, unload it, and by re-loading it ‘ in the above, skillful manner, make two loads of the same. : . ‘

A STARTLING CHARGE OF FRAUDS upon the revenues to the amount of $2,000,000, said to have been perpetrated, by a heavy warehouse firm, both upon the Government and a large number of merchants, comes ,from Neéew York. The charges are made %n’ the form of an affidavit by a discharged clerk, who has kept a duplicate set of books, and who alleges that the firm committed the frauds by bribing United States weighers to make false re-. turns of weights to the Custom-ITouse, and that they have been shipping’ goods from their store-houses without permits. The firm denies the truth of the e}Tfrk’s‘statements in toto. In acflditiq:f to this, the reason given by the clerk for his discharge is not altogether. satisfactory. As the matter stands at present, the charges sadly need confirmation, but, as the whole case is in the hands of ‘the United States officials for investigation, the truth or falsity of the charges will soon be known.—Chicago Tribuue.

THE RECENT VICTORY over the old parties in California is thus interpreted -by the Sacramento Union: “We think it a vietory over moneyed corporation that owned and controlled the machinery of both the old parties, and such a vietory as has extracted the back-bone of the enemy. We think the judicial election, interpreted by honest: men, must be accepted as the clearest manifestation of the people that their Senators and representatives; in. the next Legislature shall elect the leader of the new party as the representative of California in the Senate of the United States, ‘and enact such laws as will hen adter make it impossible or mpst ex?en'sive for the monopoly to take the active part it has taken in past years in shaping ‘bad and strangling good legislation. | b

Notwithstanding the fact of the Court de Chambord’s recent concessions with regatd to the Pope and his temporal possessions, the Bonapartist Deputies, twenty-five in number, have signed a document protesting against the constitutional monarchy scheme. This accession to the ranks of the Republicans gives the ' disposition of the question into the hands of the doubtful members, of whom there are thirty or forty. :

According to a California paper a young lady of that State, in telling a gentleman about her Yosemite trip, said the scenery was gorgeous—perfectly: ravishing-—but she didn’t like their style of locomotion down there. “How’s that ?” said her friends, “how did yowlocomote ?” “Why, don’t you think,” she replied, “I had to ride a la clothe-pin.” ’ T T S TR ST TN \ At a Kansas fair a woman exhibited a patent churn of her own manufacture and took a premium. ; ‘ e ————— An Illinois woman recently broke her leg while kicking her husband for kissing the kitchen girl.
