sERvIANs ADMIT REvERsEs
Battles Longest and Bloodiest of
Whole Balkan Conflict.

Belgrade Servian government
has addressed note to Bulgaria, for
mally breaking off diplomatic rela-
tions and announcing the recall Of the
minister at Sofia.
Servian troops have VIGOROUSLY en-
tered Kotchana. A semi official
statement, however, describing the
military position after five days fight
ing makes the admission that the Ser
Wan arms have not been so uniformly
successful as was previously reported.
Describing the five days operations
between Vardar and Krivolak, it says
that after holding greatly superior
force in check the Servians were
forced to retire. Thus Krivolak fell
into the hands of the Bulgarians. It
contends, however, that this Bulgarian
success was Insignificant compared
with the Servian successes against the
Bulgarian right wing.
Another semi-official communication
says last weeks battles were the long
est, the bloodiest and the hardest
fought of all the battles in the Balkan
war. The Servians lost $4,000 killed
and wounded, and the Bulgarians TO-
900. The Bulgarian losses were in
creased by the bad organization of
their Red Cross service and lack of
communications and transports.
1t was reported that the Greeks
from Dorian are advancing toward XII
volak, where desperate battle has
been raging for three days.

To Check Foreign Influx.

Washington, D. Civilian B. Will
son, secretary of labor, intends to
ask for thorough revision of the i'm
migration laws to prevent the tremen-
dous influx of undesirable foreigners
to this country each year. He is at
present making an exhaustive study of
the problem and his recommendations
will be submitted to President Wilson.
..I have decided" Mr.. Wilson told
reporter, "that the immigration
laws are not sufficiently strong.
"Our first duty is to those who are
in America, native or foreign. The
question naturally follows whether the
tremendous influx of aliens is not in
furious to those who are already here.
There is no question that there is
great evil in our immigration system
and it is up to us to correct this.

and congress will join next year in
putting through strong immigration

RANGES WILL BE RESTORED
Judicious Use of National Forests
Increases Capacity for Cattle.

Washington, D. C.-The improved
condition of the national forest range
after regulated grazing is pointed to
by experts of the department Of agri-
culture as demonstration that areas
which have been severely damaged
through overstocking by sheep and
cattle can be brought back to their
former carrying power through sys-
tenn of sufficiently intelligent use.
When the government took charge
of the livestock ranges within the ma
tional forests, some of them were so
badly overgrazed and otherwise in
iured from reckless handling Of the
stock that their grazing value APP
peared to have been almost entirely
destroyed. Many of these ranges,
however, have been restored and made
as valuable as ever.
An example of this improvement is
cited in the Nebo National forest,
Utah. In 1908, when that forest was
created, the ranges within the forest
boundaries were found to be badly
overgrazed and trampled because there
was q lack of any control or supervis-
ion over the areas. One of the areas
was at that time estimated to be capa-
BILE of carrying only 5000 head of cat
tie. Now, through conservative man.
agement and judicious distribution OF
the cattle over the ranges and i'm
movements in water conditions, the
carrying capacity of the range has
been increased until, in the present
grazing season, nearly 5000 head OF
cattle are using this particular area,
and forest officers feel that q few
hundred head more can be safely
prazed there without injury.

Watering Hogs in Winter.

The hog will drink too little water
in the winter time if some way is not
devised to coax him to drink copiously.
Warming the water and mixing with a
little mill feed, meat meal, tankage or
ground corn is an excellent way to get
a maximum of water into the pig
stomach. believe that it is practi-
cally impossible to get a hog to drink
too much water in the winter time.
Do not spare the bedding. / have
observed in countless instances that
cold, poorly bedded houses were large
ly responsible for improbable gains.
The hog suffers as much from the cold
Of winter as he does from the heat OF
summer. Being thin coated, he is not
able to stand much cold weather unless
very fat. It takes feed to supply this
extra energy to warm the hog kept in
cold house. Shelter is cheaper than
feed. John M. Ervard, in Farm and

Homestead Bill Is Reported.

Washington, D. C.-Senator Cham
berlain, chairman of the public lands
committee, laid before his committee
Senator Borah's bill amending the
three-year homestead law, and after a
brief discussion the bill was unani-
nouSly favorably reported.
This bill seeks to make the three
year law a real benefit to homestead
ers BY providing that in lieu of cult
waiting 20 acres of land during the
third year of residence, homesteaders
may show good faith and satisfy the
law by making improvements on their
iand amounting to $3.50 for each acre
entered.
The merit of the bill was quickly
recognized by members of the commit
Zee and no opposition was made to it.

tons, it is understood that the powers
Will make no attempt to mediate. The
Official Gazette at Belgrade published
notices of formal declaration of war
against Bulgaria.
Servian dispatches admit that q
strong Bulgarian column has invaded
Servia at Konagevatz, which town
they occupied after setting fire to the
adjacent villages. Cholera has been
carried to Belgrade by the wounded.
Official Greek dispatches claim a
great victory at Dorian, where the
Bulgarians, recently reinforced, are in
superior strength to the Greeks. The
latter assert that whole division Of
Bulgarians was destroyed, and that
the Bulgarians fled in such confusion
that they even left loaded guns behind.
This victory is considered of great
Importance because Dorian was the
Bulgarian victualing center and all the
provisions fell into the hands of the
Greeks.
1t is reported from Sofia that the
10th Bulgarian division, which rein
forced General Ivanoff, was brought
from the Tchatalja district. This
would indicate compliance with Tur-
keys demand that the Bulgarians
evacuate Turkish territory.
The Bulgarians are taking the
offensive against Nish, according to
announcement from Sofia.
A dispatch from Saloniki says that
Father Michel, superior to the French
Catholic mission at Kilkish, confirms
reports of massacres committed in
that district by Bulgarian irregulars.
In one instance they burned to death
700 men belonging to Kurkut by i'm
prisoning them in mosque under
which they exploded bombs, setting
the building on fire. They had pre-
viously assembled the victims wives
and daughters to witness the spec
tacle.
Even more terrible scenes were en-
acted at Kilkish, Planitza and Ray
novo, women also being burned to
death.
Father Michel asserts that among
the irregulars responsible for these
atrocities were business and profess
sional men and students from Sofia.

STRIKERS IN FULL CONTROL
Reign Of Terror at johannesburg
Unequaled Since War.

johannesburg The settlement Of
the strike among the gold miners IN
the Rand district, which the govern
ment arranged with q COMMITTEES Of
strikers, has proved ineffective.
The mobs reassembled Saturday.
All trains and streetcars suspended
service, the crews refusing to work.
No newspapers were able to publish.
Additional troops guarded the Rand
club, the scene of serious encounters
Saturday. A great mob assembled
there, hooting and jeering the troops.
A huge meeting was held to cele-
brate the strikers victory. The lead
ers invited the men to attend the fun
eral of those killed, whom they des-
cribed as martyrs to glorious
cause"
The suggestion that Governor Gen.
eral Gladstone's recall be demanded
was greeted with cheers.
A ballot of the Amalgamated So
ciety of Engineers Of the whole reef
gave vast majority in favor of ac-
cepting the proposed settlement. The
council of the society adopted reso-
luton providing for the calling of a
strike a month hence should the griev-
ances not be adequately redressed.
The Federated Unions are flushed
with success and confident that they
are complete masters of the situation.
The trades unionists are ready to obey
any order given them. The leaders
have already commanded the news
papers to cease publication until fur
Their notice. They count on the gov
ernment's fear of the natives, 200, 900
of whom are locked in the compounds
at the mines. They might start loot
ing and killing if Embossed.
Casualties resulting from the fight
ing Saturday are now estimated at
Ito. Two officers, three soldiers and
several policemen were wounded.
The editors of the various news
papers conferred with the Federated
Unions leaders, with the result that
the Typographical Union will publish
a paper giving colorless reports of the
events.
Except at the time of the Jameson
raid in 1896 and the outbreak Of the
war in 1899 this city has not expert
enced such day of terrorism as Sat-
urday. The mobs in the business Sec
ton caused less fear than desperadoes
who were threatening to dynamite the
homes of the wealthy.

Great Possibilities Of Truck Farm.
ing In Frames.


Intensive truck farming under saah
or ciotn covers is becoming one of the
most popular and profitable lines of
OUTDOOR work, three acres being all the
ground required to produce q very
comfortable living. It is, Of course,
necessary that good market for the
produce be within easy reach, q mar
ket that is willing to pay top prices
for extra fancy and early vegetables,
Tor the sash farmers cucumbers, snap
beans, ETC., rank in the vegetable
market about the same as hot house
grapes in the fruit stores.
Naturally, a considerably larger
capital is required than in ordinary
truck farming, but the original outlay
for frames and sash is an interest pay
ing investment. Roughly, it will cost
10 cents per square foot to equip a
garden with sash protection, and, with
reasonable care, these sash should
give 10 to IL years service, says a
Farm and Home expert.
In many localities there is an album
dance of sunshine at all seasons of the
year and an absence of extremes of
temperature. In these regions very
slight covering or the application of a
small amount of heat will carry plants
through the winter in good condition.
These conditions prevail in North Car
olina and tide-water Virginia, and
large areas are devoted to frame
trucking, using, not glass, but cloth
coverings. Vegetables grown in
frame are shipped in carload lots from
these sections. Naturally, the cloth
covered frames are less expensive
than sash, the cost being from IS to
so cents running foot for a bed ID
feet wide. In most sections the glass
covering is necessary.
While three acres is a good sized
sash farm, somewhat larger area
should be available in order that the
frames may be moved once in three
years to guardsagainst disease. The
type of frames varies in different 10
calities. but generally they are no
more elaborate or expensive than is
absolutely necessary. The usual type
has for its sides two lines Of IL inch
boards set on edge and held in place
by stakes driven into the ground, the
bed being feet wide, and as long as
may be desired. Farm and Home.

Borrowing Money on Land.

Swiss farmers find it comparatively
easy to borrow money of the mortgage
banks which exist in many of the can
tons. The chief advantage secured by
the. farmer in placing mortgage with
thacantonal or state mortgage banks
isAlat he escapes the necessity of re-
paying the principal of his mortgage
in single payment, and he is prac-
tically relieved from the danger of
foreclosure according to Farm and
Home.
The interest rate charged by the
cantonal mortgage banks is about the
same as that collected by other banks.
For instance, a farmer wishes to raise
loan of $40, 900 on his property. He
secures the money from the cantonal
bank at Al per cent. He could prob
ably do as well for himself if he went
to private sources, but here is where
the cantonal banks help him out. If
he went to a private bank to borrow
money at 41 per cent for stated num-
Der of years, he would be required to
pay that bank his interest each year,
and the full amount at the end of the
term.
Now, with the cantonal bank he is
required to pay each year, in addition
to his Al per cent, per cent as amor
tization. After the first payment he
owes the bank SO, 900 less l per cent.
Naturally, the second year he must
pay interest, not on the $4,000, but
on SO, 300. However, his actual pay
ment is still 81 per cent of the SIC, 900.
Each year, however, a larger proper
ton of this 81 per cent goes to liqui-
date the loan. In this way the farmer
ultimately pays back the entire loan
without having been burdened with
one big payment in any year, as he
ordinarily would have been. Only in
very rare cases are the loans made by
these mortgage banks on farm proper
ties foreclosed.

BALKAN ALLIES
FIGHT TO DEATH
100000 Former Friends Now
In Deadly Conflict.
Bulgarians Have Advantage Ser
via Suffers More Than Dur
ing War With Turkey.

London-After ten days Of fighting.
more severe and deadly in character
than anything in the last Balkan war,
e little light begins to break on the
hitherto obscure operations. In the
first place, the Servians have lost
more men than in the whole previous
campaign, and semi-official statements
issued at Belgrade have the appear
ance of an intention to prepare the
public for news Of disaster.
Desperate fighting, with varying
fortunes, has progressed along the
Vardar and Bregalinitsa rivers, and
seems to be in favor of the Bulgar-
ians.
Important news has been received
of the Bulgarian invasion of Servia
through Belogradchyk, As miles north
east of Nish, Servia's most important
fortified town. No indication is given
of the strength of the Bulgarian col
umn at this point, but the Bulgarians
declare they have defeated the Ser
vians and captured five guns and
quantity of other war material, and,
by the occupation of the passes, to
have opened the road to Nish.
There is heavy fighting also be-
tween the Servians and Bulgarians to
the south Of Istip and in the neighbor-
hood of Kotchana. About 200, 900 men
are engaged, and the losses on both
sides appear to be terrible.
Bulgaria's strategy appears to be to
hold the Greeks in check, probably
with comparatively small forces, while
she deals with Servia. This assump-
ton, if correct, would explain the vic
torious advance of the Greek army.
Unconfrmed reports credits the Bull
garians with victories near Korili,
giving them the key to Uskup, and
with an outfanking movement from
the south of Tahynos Lake, which
would cut off the Greek retreat.
Saloniki dispatches continue to re-
port Greek victories. The Greeks are
said to have captured Is guns at Dol
ran. Evidence of desperate fighting
is found in the arrival of 5000 wound
ed at Saloniki, taxing the towns ac-
commodations and resources to the ut
termost.
A conservative estimate Of the
killed and wounded in last weeks
fighting fixes the number at from 3d.
900 to 40, 900. Thousands of destitute
refugees from the scene of the fight
ing are coming into Saloniki.
The Greeks continue to make whole
sale charges against the Bulgarians Of
burning and pillaging all the villages
they abandon and of committing MUIR
ders, mutilation and other horrors.
