ITRONS OF HUSBANDRY 1 



In the table for July i, 1876, in National Grange, Proceedings, the numbers of granges are omitted for some 

 of the western states. These are supplied by estimates based on the number of members of the order in 

 these states. All such cases, in which the exact number of granges has not been obtained, are indicated in 

 the table by the use of parentheses. 



The statistics of the proportion of granges to agricultural population are based on the United States census 

 returns of population engaged in agriculture in the census years 1870 and 1880, with estimated correction for 

 the intervening years.
