1. The Grange was organized in 1867 and led by Oliver H. Kelley. The Grange was for the most part successful. It enhanced the lives of isolated farmers through social, educational, and fraternal activities. It gradually raised farmers goals from individual self improvement to improvement of the farmers plight. It helped to regulate railroad fees and set up stores for farmers to sell goods in. However a number of granger laws were badly drawn and their influence faded.
The Farmers' Alliance, established in the late 19th century, developed in 1867 as a response to the economic challenges faced by farmers. It aimed to provide mutual support and advocate for farmers' rights, addressing issues such as fair pricing, access to credit, and cooperative marketing. The organization played a significant role in fostering collective action among farmers and laid the groundwork for later movements, including the Populist Party.
