Some areas
Still Need


While the majority of Mont
gomery County farmers were
aided greatly by last weeks
rains that came in time to save
a lot of the sweet corn crop,
many more around Damascus
and Laytonsville are still sweat
ing out a drought-like year.
Unlike farmers further down
county, who sloshed around
happily during last Sundays
drenching downpour, men Of
Damascus and Laytonsville
watched only light showers dis
appear into the parched ground
almost Immediately.
F. Upton Gladhill, of Damas-
Gus, said pasture land in his
area is all burnt up and that
three or four days of steady
rain are needed TO help farmers.
Right now, many dairymen in
his section of the county are
already feeding winter stores to
herds because Of bad hay crops.
But the dry condition seems
TO be localized to the Damascus
area, so far as Montgomery
County is concerned. Farmers
from other parts report the re-
cent rains have averted a crisis
that until last week reminded
them Of the 1857 drought.
Delbert T. Foster, County
Agent, was succinct about the
rains: They were a life.saver.

Mohorojoh's
'56Weddino
Is Disclosed

LONDON. Aug. rs (AP).-
The secret leaked out today Of
the S-year-old marriage Of the
Maharajah Of Cooch Behar,
one Of midas wealthiest
princes. and a Shapely London
model.
The bride at a civil ceremony
was Gina Egan. now 20. Tha
Maharajah is A.
After the wedding in Sep
TENDER. 1856. the Maharajah
went back to his bachelor
apartment. His wife continued
to live with her mother, 1--WE
minutes walk away. The
couple have lived apart fever
since.
A week after the marriage,
the Maharajah went to Rome
alone. where he frequently was
seen with Actress Linda
Christian.
II think I am the only per-
son IN the world they told"
said Gina's mother, Mrs. Ar
thur Egan, who finally leaked
the secret.
Why did her daughter keep
It q secret?
II don't want to say any
thing about Gina's affairs"
Mrs. Egan told newsmen.
Both had been married be-
fore.
The Maharajah's first wife
was Hollywood Actress Nancy
Valentine. That marriage also
was kept scert for a long time.
It was annulled in 1852 be-
cause the Indian government
refused approval. Miss Egan's
first marriage was dissovled
in 1855 after i've years.
In 1851 the Maharajah's
state was merged with another
and he was given a pension by
the Indian government. He
since has lived mostly in
Europe.
