We are glad to know that the Gus
tom of naming farms is becoming
quite general. A natural sequence
from it Is to print the name of the
farm on the owners stationery and
thus the farm and his place become
fndividualized and associated together
In the community. There is a busi-
ness advantage, too, as every letter
sent out from Hickory Grove

as the case may be, acts as an adver-
tisement of the place. Shakespeare
says poet is able to give even to
larry nothing, local habitation and

deserves to enjoy distinctive per-
sonality in the minds of those who
visit it or have business with the
