Edltor Pacific Rural Press: In your June issue your editorial on “What Is the Nonpartisan League?” ‘does an injustice/to that organization. “In the early days of the Grange, when its members did collective buy- ing, I 'was a member and bought my farm - supplies through it and paid about 50 per cent of the prices my neighbors, who were: not Grangers, ‘paid and to. the same dealers. ~ This created such a furor that the powers of business thought it wise to crush” ' the “Grange and every profiteer vo- ’ ciferously cried that the Grange was a dangerous organization and berated and nd'culed the Grangers in every way. “In" the interest of harmony the Grange gave up the pernicious habit of collective buying and regained its standing with the profit-takers.
