It served as the official voice of Michigan’s chapter of the National Grange, a fraternal organization for farmers. The paper included news on agricultural issues, state legislation, reports from Michigan Agricultural College, household advice, literature, recipes, and updates on social reforms like women’s suffrage and rural mail service. It was published in Schoolcraft, then later in Coldwater and Kalamazoo. Digitized issues are available through Michigan State University and the Library of Congress.
