Patrons of Husbandry Buttons and a Badge dating form 1890 to 1920
I just about missed including the one shown in the 2nd image from 1920 New York State Fair.
The Patrons of Husbandry, or the Grange as they were more widely known, officially referred to as The National Grange of the Order of Patrons of Husbandry is a national agricultural, fraternal, and co-operative organization founded December 4, 1867, by Oliver Hudson Kelley, a Mason and a former clerk in the U.S. Department of Agriculture, with six other men and claimed more than 760,000 members across the United States by 1875 and is still active today they encourages families to band together to promote the economic and political well-being of the community and agriculture local Granges still serve as a center of rural life for many farming communities.
