For q country in which stock rails
ing has been principal industry
for a quarter of a century, live
stock exhibits at the Cochise coun-
ty fairs have been exceedingly
small. This has been, in great
measure because cattle raisers hes
itate to take fine stock from their
home ranges and transport them to
the fair grounds taking the chance
of accident to priced animals.
Last year, for the first time the
exhibit included a few sheep and
it is expected that there will be
more this year and also some goats
to add to the interest in the stock
show. There has never been ANY
shortage of quality in the stock
show of the county fairs!
The animals which have been
shown would take the first money
anywhere and this is not to be Won
dered at when it is considered that
the men who exhibit their fine herds
sires and their sleek young stock
at this fair have been cattle breed
ers all their lives These men spend
all their spare money for fine cat
tie for breeding purposes and at the
present time there are ranches in
this district which are known all
over the southwest for the high
quality of their stock.
To one who has watched this fair
develop from a small beginning the
possibilities in the stock department
may be seen to broaden year by year
until now there is every possibility
that nearly every class of stock will
be represented this year. Since the
last fair number of thoroughbred
animals have been developed here
There are more prospects in the
dairy line than there have ever
been before and it is expected that
there will be competition among
dairy herds sires.
The dairy stock show holds vast
interest because nearly everyone
uses either milk or some other ii
theproducts of the dairy. Even peo-
pie who live in cities and who sell
dom see a COW are interested what
sort of cows are considered best as
milk prducers and at the fair, ii
the exhibit lives up to expectations
they will have chance to see what
sort of animal the milk they use
comes from.
There are some very good. dairy
herds in this section but there are
few pure bred COWS and only half q
dozen pure bred sires SO that while
the standard in milk and milk pro-
ducts is high here the product comes
from cross bred or grade COWS.
1t is interesting to note what g
great boom the fair has been tC
the breeding of thoroughbred poul-
try and the hope is high that the
same influence will be brought tC
bear among dairymen. The breeder
of bee. cattle needs no instructions

better than grades. Every cattle
man in the district has a dream o1

STOCK SHOW FOR FAIR Will
Be LARGER and MORE VARIED
Than IN ANY FORMER YEAR

many men in Cochise county who
know fine cattle when they see
them that the breeder who owns
some fine sires or some thorough
bred COWS does not need to explain
their merits when he exhibits them.
He simply stands back and sWells
with pride as the COW men stroll
along and comment on the beautiful
stock and he watches with cool as
surance while the judges poke about
among the pens finally coming up
to pin a half dozen ribbons on the
proper stalls.
Each year men are brought here
from the university to judge these
cattle yet if cattleman could be
picked from among those standing
about the pens, who was unbiased,
he could award the ribbons with as
great degree of accuracy as can
the professor.
The cattlemen make an inter-
esting study beside their pure bred
stock at the fair for lettering about
those pens one will hear all about
each exhibit, what it's outstanding
merits are, what it's weaknesses are
and what it is worth. The opinions
are tinged with jealousy when ut
tered by men other than the owner
and with pride when the owner tells
his story A good listener may learn
more about the cattle business by
listening to these men than he could
by reading dozen books on beef
culture.
There were no hogs at the fair
last year. There are half a dozen
breeders of thoroughbred hogs with

There is a sort of grayish beige, or
yellowish gray, called gregg, that has
been used for suits and street frocks
here and abroad. Clay is another tone
of the same sort which strikes a COM

of contrasting color and always of con-

on smart dressing For in
deed the two-piece suit is the trump
card in the modern woman's Autumn
wardrobe, and if worn with appropri-
ate accessories may be wisely chosen
for the mornings round of business or
shopping. for luncheon at a restau-
rant, for committee or club meetings,
for the informal game of afternoon
bridge. for the morning or afternoon
church wedding, for church service,
for afternoon tea at the home of a
friend or in a hotel tea room, for mo-
toring and travel. and for a dozen
other places and occasions that doubt
less occur to you.
The very fact that at least with
American women there has been some
thing of falling off in interest in the
two-piece suit within the past 10 or Is
years gives you all the more distinc-
ton when you wear it-makes it in
deed the trump card in the Autumn
wardrobe.
There are, of course, exceptions to
the bridge players rule to play trumps
when in doubt. and so there are times
when two-piece suit is not the most

Most business women feel nowadays
and with pretty good reasOn-that
for everyday Office wear the two.piece
suit is not so convenient or so appro-
pirate as the one-piece frock with a
! coat. The coat outlasts number of
frocks and the suit jacket would out
] last the suit skirt. Besides, there is
the prejudice nowadays against the
dividing line of skirt and overblouse
when the suit jacket is not worn.
! though this, of course, can be obyiated
/ by choosing an overblouse of a color
to match the skirt. Then the skirt
and blouse is to all intents and pur-
poses a jumper frock. Still, the bust
ness woman seems to prefer her one
piece frock for working hours.
