Items of Interest to Grangers. There are 780 granges in Ohio, according to a list lately compiled. . .It is estimated that there will not be less tbnn from 50,000 to 75 000 grangers in Ten nessee before next fall. Tho order is expe riencing a wonderfully rapid growth, and soon thcro will scarcely be a farmer in the State who will not bo a momber of some grange. .. As to the manifest dislike to ceremonies.' | 1 find that those who aro the most inclined to do away with tho ritual are not the best Pat rons. I now and then Pod broken-down poli ticians who are more anxious to ride ovei the shoulders of the order into some office, tlntt are very much afraid ot ceremonies, and ei- piess themselves ns being desirous that the organization become a political one. This is not the sentiment of tho Patrons as a class.— Rural World. The grango movement is still swcoping Georgia. New granges aro being organized every week. Thousands of me best and most solid farmers arc joining them and working in them with al! their might; and if you could see how the grange meetings are attended, how inen and their families come from a ilis- tanco r.o be present, and how resolute is their purposo when they come, you would be con vinced that tho granges are a reality wbicb cannot bo ignored or laughed or sneered out of existenco. There is hardly a farmer of inteli- gence aud infiueuco in the State, and l have a very wide-spread acquaintance among them, who is not a working member of a grange, Most heartily do I wish the movement God speed. The more I learn about it the more d I approve it and wish to see it sweep tho land. —Correspondent Southern Farmer. ..Our granges need the soul enlivening in fluence of music, and each grange should have a good instrument and an efficient performer. Every order should have music as a part of its ceremonial, and our granges need music to make them more especially objects of interest. We say to the farmer, • Come and join onr grange.’ His reply is, ‘Tc!! mo what the grange business amounts to, and wbat are its principal attractions V We toil him, and we also iuforrn him bow very interesting our grange meetings are, ami perhaps wo mention some of the most interesting features of these occasions; but why is it that we never men tion music t In our opinion music is essen tial in every grange, and vocal music is always obtainable, while with a little effort instrumen tal music may also be procured. Patrons, do not neglect to secure Us ennobling and enliv ening influence. . .The grange aims to increase knowledge by stimulating mental activity and aiding in quiry, to add dignity to labor and elevate the social position of the husbandman, to mutually relieve sickness and suffering among tbe fra ternity, to prevent cruelty to animals, to les son litigation and its consequent ilts, to collect accurate statistics ot products, and gain a full knowledge of markets, to give better under standing of tbe principles of business and tbo laws of trade, to overthrow tbe credit system aud encourage the practice of true economy, to bring the manufacturer nearer the producer and foster home industry, to place tbe pro ducer and consumer in nearer relation to each other, to teach better culture of the soil, to surround our homes with beauty and comfort, to avoid imposition and to dispense with mid dle-men as far as practicable, and to inculcate morality and tempertftcc. foster education, and cultivate brotherly love among mankind. —Indiana Farmer. a thorough effort to be made for sale or disposition thereof.

Bolling the Ground. On dry or wot ground tbe effect of the roll- er is found to be salutary. Ploughed and prepared for sowing, dry land is much helped by tbe roller. The blades of grass spring up sooner and retain a firmer hold in the earth. In a Beason of drought, rolling has saved the crop, when without it tbe feed would have never sprung from the ground. In wet and heavy ground it Is believed the roller, smooth.; l£2 Itn^nFdcning tbe surface, will have the MImmediately beneath the surface 1 ib a bet ter condition to generate tbe seed. On grass ground that has been heaved by (the frijst, the roller has an excellent effect in fixing the roots. Rolling the ground is aiso good when tbe land has been laid down unevenly tbe previous year. If tbe land is too dry, wait till just after a soaking rain, and it will work capitally. It is a good Idea to roll ploughed sowed ground before barrowing, as it presses down the furrows that weald be turned back, and makes tbe surface uneven, and the har row phlverlzes it mneh.
