In 1867 Oliver Hudson Perry started the Patrons of Husbandry, which would become the Granger Movement. Initially membership was limited to his own state, Minnesota, but by the 1870's membership had burgeoned to 800,000 representing all states. The main focus was high rates charged by grain elevators and railroad monopolies.
