Turkey to Appeal to Powers.
Constantinople.-The council of
ministers held a long session Tues
day morning to consider the action
of Bulgaria in declaring her independ-
ence of Turkey at Tirnova Monday.
1t was decided that it was impossible
to accept any proceedings that violat-
ed existing treaties, and that Turkey
should address circular note to the
powers pointing out the necessity of
taking measures to enforce respect
for the treaty of Berlin.
Replying to the telegram sent to
the Turkish government by Prince
Ferdinand, in which he said that in
declaring the independence of Bulga-
ria he had been compelled to respect
the voice of the nation and expressed
the hope that the friendly relations
between the two countries would con-
tinue, Turkey says she has invited
the powers to confer on the situation,
and as her rights are guaranteed by
the powers, she will look to them for
their Defense
Servians Are Enraqed.
Belgrade, Servia.-The news of Aus
tria-Hungary's action with regard to
the annexation of the provinces of
Bosnia and Herzegovina has aroused
Servia to the danger point. The
streets are thronged with a wild mob,
many of the rioters discharging their
revolvers and demanding war with
Austria rather than annexation.
Mediation. by France.
is.-France has essayed the role
of mediator with the object of pre-
venting war between Turkey and Bull
garia, and as result of Foreign Min
lister Pichon's series of conferences
Monday with the representatives of
the powers, including M. Iswolsky, the
Russian foreign minister; Naoum
Pasha, the Turkish ambassador to
France; the tro-Hungarian, the
British, the American and the Italian
ambassadors, and of active exchanges
which have been going on between
the various cabinets 1t was an
nounced that France, Great Britain,
Russia and possibly Italy were pre-
pared to act in unison to preserve
peace and to call conference of the
signatories of the Berlin treaty to deal
automatically with the situation that
has arisen between Turkey and Bull
garia and to harmonic conflicting in
terests so that fresh complications
may be avoided.
Bulgaria Declares independence.
Sofia, Observation-Disclosures, tribu.
tary principally under the suzerainty
of the sultan of Turkey, Monday pro-
claimed her independence of Turkey.
This action was taken at Tirnovo by
Prince Ferdinand, who was elected
prince of Bulgaria in 1887. The Bull
garian cabinet was present with the
prince, having met Sunday at the
frontier and journeyed with him to
Tirnovo.
The proclamation was made at the
cathedral of Tinovo at II o'clock Mon
day. 1t was dramatic scene, accom-
panied by much enthusiasm. A mani
festo of independence addressed to the
nation was subsequently issued by the
prince.

show how the suggestions In this arti-

economy Of planning a farm for n
definite purpose. The amount OF
fencing required per acre to inclose

varies from 16 to 20 rods.

ia not advisable to fence hog tight
very much more land than can be
conveniently utilized by hogs, as
cheaper fences that are just as effec.

Some Of the important points to
consider in laying out a practical ro-
tation for hogs are: First, number
of animals to be kept; second, con.
yenience in feeding while in the field;
third, shape Of fields SO that they may
be easily worked; and fourth, the
least possible number of rods Of fenc-
ing To the acre inclosed. With these
points before one. and each consid-
cred. a rotation may be laid out In
telligently and to fit most any farm.
The following plans are offered a.

writes that G. D. Belden has s.grouch"
against Jim Tawney because he didn't
get him posCoftice. It may be that
the office job he secured for Langum
accounts for the puffs for Tawney that
fill the editorial columns Of the Times.
Sam goes on to say that no constitu-
Eent every wrote Mr. Tawney for q
favor but that Our Jim did his best to
serve him." However when I sent him
9 petition for the extension Of parcels
post signed by about 325 voters he
failed to respond. w 9 sent the petition
by registered mail, politely asking him
to let us know how he stood on this
matter in which we are yitally con-

courage and completely ignored 325
constituents at one fell swoop. I hope
the. voters Of the district will turn the
table on Tawney and snow him under
