The March meeting of the Saline
Farmers' Club was held at the pleasant
farm home of S. E. Crittenden, Friday,
March 11th, with a good attendance,
despite the rough weather and rougher
roads. A large majority of the members of the club and a goodly number
of invited guests assembled at the usual
hour, and the exercises were opened
with a selection by the choir, after
which the usual preliminary business
was attended to. B. N. Smith gave the
report of the viewing committee and
criticised, both favorably and otherwise, the farm management of A. A.
Wood, at whose place tho February
meeting of the club was held, after the
discussion which followed this report
was finished, a recess was taken for
dinner.
The noon repast seems to be one of
the most enjoyable features of the club,
aud some people, who do not seem to
appreciate the wonderful literary advantages afforded by these meetings,
have, sometimes, indiviously remarked
that if this attraction was taken away
the attendance at these monthly gatherings would be sadly diminished. Be
that as it may, the Saline Farmers'
Club has evidently come to stay, and is
certainly a source of intellectual improvement and social enjoyment. After
dinner, the gentlemen, with the host
and esecutiveboardin advanee,marched
to the barns to look over the stoek, and
to note wherein Mr. Crittenden had
failed to do his duty in the manage-
mentof his farm. The ladies' meeting,
held at the usual hour, was ably conducted by the lady vice president, Mrs.
Norman "Wood, whose manner in tbe
chair is charmingly easy and dignified.
Questions of vital importance were
brought before the meeting for .consideration,"but did not seem to be fully
understood by the majority of the
ladies present, and the discussion was
left in the hands of a few, who handled
the main subject in a way that gave
evidence of thorough knowledge of the
question, however, the whole of the
debate was so utterly beyond the comprehension of your reporter that it
would be folly to attempt to give an
intelligent report of it, but we can
heartily congratulate the young ladies
present npon having an opportunity to
take a few lessons in a branch of education, which, even in this enlightened
age of the world, is too sadly neglected.
The ladies of the S. F. Club are progressing rapidly; and it is greatly to be
regreted that the gentlemen are so
rigidly excluded from meetings which
would be an untold benefit to all. At
the April meeting: the ladies will discuss the question "What caa we do to
improve the society around us'*"' At
the afternoon session, Miss Florence
Buckman favored the club with a guitar
solo, which was well received.
Mr. H. W. Bassett, who was tc have
furnished a paper for discussion, being
absent, the question box was drawn
upon for material for debate. The
first question **How long litis stinking
smut been known in this vicinity?*" was
soon disposed of, as but very few of the
members seemed to have had experience with it. The questiou "Which
would be the better for the community,
a creamery or a race track?" called'
forth quite a discussion on the creamery
question, in which so many in this
section are interested, just at present.
H. D, Piatt, who is one of tho stock
holders in the faotoryin Ypsilanti.gave
some-interesting facts in regard to that
enterprise, and seemed to be very de-
oided-in his opinion that a creamery at
Saline could not fail to be a good thing-
for the people of this vicinity. The
question "Is it best to give boys and
girls,- who intend to be farmers and
farmers' wives, a college education?*'
was freely discussed both by ladies aud
gentlemen, aud they seemed to agree
that the college education could do no
great h arm, to say the least. The next
question "Would it be beneficial to the
flocks of Washtenaw Co. to dip them
onco a year, and what would" be the expense per head?"' did not seem to demand the attention of many of the
farmers present, as most of them raise
fine wooled sheep and did not see any
necessity for dipping at all. The last
question, "Would the free deliver") of
mail, to country residences, aid in
raising the intellectual standard among
farmers," was answered, in the affirmative, with one voice.
H. H. Piatt presented the following
resolution which was unanimously
adopted by the club:
Whereas; We, the members of the
Saline Farmers' Club, believe that the
raising of sheep is indispensable m
keeping up the fertility of our farms,
and as our goverumeut protects Ihc-
manufacturers of "wool against competition from the old world,and as wool
that material should be protected on
an equitable basis with the manufacturers of woolen goods.   And
Whereas; A bill has been introduced in Congress singling out wool to
be placed on the free list at the instigation and in. the interest of the manufacturers of woolen goods.
Therefore Resolved; That we the
members of the Saline Farmers' Club
do petition the Hon. James S. Gorman,
our representative from the Second
Congressional District of Michigan to
offer and urge an amendment to the
bill so it -will read after the word
wools" "and all manufactured wools."
The secretary was instructed to forward a copy of this -preamble and resolution to the Hon. Jemes S. Gorman,
at Washington, and to the Michigan
Farmer at Detroit.
The next meetiug of the club will be
held at Geo. S. Wood's, on Lodi Plains,
Friday, April Sth, when a paper "will
be furnished either by Norman Wood
on "Bird life on the farm, considered
from an economic standpoint" or by H.
W. Bassett on "The time and method
for marketing farm products."
