Answer 2

Answer:

Wheat prices declined and this caused a decline in Grange membership.

Explanation:

The Grange, officially named The National Grange of the Order of Patrons of Husbandry, is a fraternal organization in the United States that encourages families to band together to promote the economic and political well-being of the community and agriculture.

Becuase the wheat prices declined, farmers livelihood was threatened. This led to a decline in membership. Grange membership has declined considerably as the percentage of American farmers has fallen from a third of the population in the early 20th century to less than two percent today.
