The factor that most likely caused a decline in Grange membership among the options provided is **wheat prices declined**.
While spikes in railroad prices, variances in freight costs, and severe drought can all impact farmers, a decline in wheat prices directly affects the income and financial stability of farmers, which could lead to reduced support for or interest in organizations like the Grange.
