Countess Brazzar-whose full name. by

the industry at home. The plan has
bean most successful. Countess Brazza
has arranged with Miss Hayward. spe-

forward TO an exhibit of extraordinary

Marking Brides Trousseau

Under no circumstances is it correct
or even permissible for a prospective
bride to use any initials but her own in
marking her trousseau. Using those
Of her future husband is never done
by persons who observe etiquette, and
the reason is very clear Not until the
girl is actually married has she the
right to a mans initials, and to put
them on linens or her trousseau is ap-
propriating something that is not then
hers. Even If she expected to be mar
ried the next day she must still use
her own.
The only exception to this is il
marking trunks Those. to prevent con-
fusion in travelling, have the brides
Christian initials with that of the
bridegroom's surname added. For in
stance, il brides maiden name is
Emma May Brown and she is to marry
Mr. Smith, the trunks should be mark
ed +. NJ. S.
Only last week a very smart young
woman who was married a year age
told with great glee that she was at
last having some linen marked with
her husbands last initial following heI
own. She had just bought some new
towels which she didn't in the least
need, she said, but wanted to have foi
the pleasure OF seeing her matron's in
itials on instead OF those which hac
been hers as a girl.

The Farmers Fair.

The state agricultural exhibition
to be held at Yankton Sept. IA to IS
is first and last a farmers fair. 1t
is held under the supervision Of the
State Board Of Agriculture, a board
created by law for the sole purpose
Of promoting the interest of agricul-
ture and the argiculturist in South
Dakota. The board recognizes that,
with all It's other work. it can best
foster and encourage farming indus
try through the instrumentality of a
state exhibition, and there is no
doubt it is right on that proposition.
In order that the boards efforts may
have the best results it must have
the cordial support and cooperation
of the farmers of the state generally.
This support and cooperation can be
made most effective by the personal
attendance Of the farmers at the fair
and by an exhibit Of the products Of
their fields, and herds and orchards,
dairies. apiaIies, ami other depart
ments of their industry. To hear and
learn what other farmers are doing.
and see what they are producing and
learn their methods, cannot fail to
be Of great and substantial value to
the intelligent and aggressive farm
er, and through the medium of his
state fair he is enabled to obtain
this information at a minimum cost
to himself, and on an occasion when
he will have leisure and the best op-
%portunity to prosecute his inquiries
and Investigations. Farmers owe it
to themselves to see to it that their
annual state exhibition is given their
cordial personal assistance, and by so
doing will they not only increase
their stock of. valuable acknowledge.
and add largely to their personal en-
joyment, but will derive a lasting
pleasure in the gains that come to
them through the improvements sug-
gested to their minds by freely ming
ling and ~conve1sing with their broth
er lords of South Dakota soil.
