London. Sept 1.-THE powers are
evidently exerting pressure, both at
Constantinople and Sofia to avert a
Turko-Bulgarian war, apparently with
some temporary success, but meantime
an increasingly terrible tale of atroci-
ties committed in Macedonia shows
that the situation is daily becoming
aggravated.
The temper of the Bulgarian people
and government, according to tele-
grams from Sofia is rising to the dan
ger point. All Indications tend to show
that however Loyalty the government
desires to observe neutral attitude,
1t will be forced ere long by pressure
from the people into formal declara-
ton of sympathy with the Macedonian
Christians.

tion to the diplomats in Sofia that un-

FARMING MATTERS.
Seed Sprouting in Melons.

Tho Denver Republican correspond
ent at Rocky Ford under date OF Sep
tenber Sth writes that strange and
abnormal condition has developed
throughout the entire Arkansas valley.
The seeds of the melons are sprouting
before maturity. This phenomenon of
nature is SO remarkable that no explain
alton OF it has vet been given Ii has
never before occurred In the history
OF canteloupe culture In the United
States. 1t is n complete mystery to
those who have even made cantaloups
growing an art
While this unusual condition will no,
AFFECT the marketing OF the presen,
crop. 1t will seriously interfere with the
production of seed for next years
planting. At first the sprouting of ths
seeds was thought to be confined to the
over-ripe melons. but on examination II
was found that half-grown cantaIoupes
were showing the same condition.
The seeds first open at the apex and
the sprout protrudes the same a. when
the seed is in a state Of termination.
How termination can take place
within the melon is puzzle. Primar-
lily it cannot occur without the pres
ence of water. heat and atmospheric
air, or at least of oxygen, and why it
Should occur in immature melons is
something for science to solve. The
seeds that have bursted open are alb
solutely worthless, because the germ is
gone.
In some fields every cantaloupe is
affected while in others only a small
portion have sprouted. Many seed
buyers from the South look with seri-
Gus apprehension on the future. as
Rocky Ford cantaloupe seeds will be
selling at enormous prices before the
time for planting arrives Besides this.
worthless seeds will be placed on the
market by inscriptions dealers and
the loss of the growers will be incal-
culable. Those who are saving seeds
find that they are obliged to throw
away many of the best cantaloupes
because Of the strange freak Of nature.
One seed buyer from the South who
bought TWO acres of cantaloupes for
seed found them sprouting, and in or
der to save himself from loss Grated
the entire crop for shipment Some
attribute the sprouting to climatic con-
ditions that have prevailed and Others
to too rapid growth Of the melons.
One thing is noticeable, however and
that is that melons planted on sandy
ground are more seriously affected
pies have been sent to the government
experiment station for an expert solu-
ton of the mystery.

Alfalfa produces more green foliage
to an acre than any other hog pasture
Alfalfa is grown to such an extent in
this state that any farmer or stock
man could spare few acres for hog
pasture. The value of an acre of al
falfa throughout the season for laying
bn pork is well established and long
experience has taught practical hog
raisers that little corn or small
amount OF other grain, together with
good alfalfa pasture, will give excel
lent results. Alfalfa alone seems to
supply little more than a maintenance
ration, but as such is very valuable to
growing stock.
The cost of living in cities like Den
