Farm Advertising

The department of journalism at
South Dakota State College wrote
nearly 100 farmers asking their ex-
perience with advertising in the
home newspapers.
One replied that advertising of
seed grain had been so successful
that next year new granary was to
be built, a new truck bought, and
equipment for cleaning and handling
grain added.
Another replied that his success in
selling little pigs had been so great
through his local paper that he had
been unable to meet the demand.
A third replied that small ad in
the county paper sold all his settings
of eggs.
These typical replies point once
more to the potential value to the
farmer of an advertisement in his
home paper. The more he learns to
advertise, the more readily will he

Mothers Precaution.

I'm the main the French mother
prefers not to trust her daughter alone
with man; if there is to be any
courtship, it is better that it be
where she can keep an observant eye
on them. In spite OF such manifest
difficulties in the preliminaries, the
French girl probably desires marriage
more ardently than the American n
girl confessedly desires it. There is
so much supervision of the French
lass in her home that her only release
seems to lie in marriage.
Hence remarkable docilty in the
matter of the choice of a husband
Some one has said that the French
woman marries. not because of love,
bat with the hope of love afterward.
In the better class families a dowry
accompanying the wife will practically
be demanded. What does she bring

tion and all the other pretty things
found in the sentimental novel.
Unfortunately. or fortunately-as
you may view it-these accompani-
ments of American matchmaking are
frequently totally absent from French
courtship. Indeed. in the middle and
higher classes of French society there
often is very little possibility of love-
making before marriage.
''Owxlg to the family regulations
and the fact that there are few CO.
educational schools in the country, the
French girl seldom makes with boys
those confident. personal friendships
so common in America.
