Missing Link n Atned Forces
From Bail To Adriati

London.-Shouy Roumanlia, now
that the Russiani are on the border, if
not actually in Pennsylvania, decide to
join the allies, her army will provide
the missing link lin the chain of troops
1900 miles long, winding from the
Baltic to the AdFiatic.
This battle line would be compos-
ed of Russians, Roumanians, Servians
and Montenegrin6 on the one side, and
Germans and AJstro- Hungarians on
the other,
The allies believe Roumania soon
will take the plunge. Other devel-
opments are EXPECTED. Relations be-
tween Greece and Turkey have reach
ed the breaking point over the alleged
ill-tratment of Greeks in Asia Minor.
Italy is growing restless over Tur-
keys delay in giving satisfaction for
the violation of the Italian consulate
at Hodeida from which the British
consul, who sought refuge, was forci-
bly, removed. Italy, also it is report
ed, has agreed that Servia should be
granted port in the Adriatic.
Roumania and Greece, it is thought,
however, may delay taking up arms
until Bulgaria, which is anxious for
part of Macedonia, is satisfied or the
last efforts fail to satisfy that country,
which is maintaining her neutrality,
for a hostile Bulgaria on their bor-
ders would compel them to divide
forces.

The amount Of grain annually wasted
after having been grown would, if it
be saved. feed any single country on
earth, however large or hungry. This
waste shows up mostly on our over large
ranches, but great deal Of loss Of this
kind can be found on many small farms,
for which there is little excuse. It
comes only from bad habits in cutting
and handling. One thing all can do is
to begin cutting at the earliest possible
moment when the grain is ready; plan
the other work and have it so well in
hand that all time can be given strictly
to harvesting. Last season in walking
across large wheat field the ground
was literally covered with plump grain
where every shock had stood. The
amount wasted in this way would be
difficult to estimate, but there certainly
was not less than enough to we'll seed
the field again could it have been thus
utilized.-Field and Farm.

There was another youthful perform.

didn't wear ribbons and fluffy ruf1es
was ruled ineligible to contestin music.

short Of a genus. His number. Hun
parian Rhapsodi No. 2, is in itself q
test of great skill, and be displayed ir
the rendition of this number a degree
of musicianship remarkable in one Of
his age. We predict for Mr.. Allen 9
wonderful future, and fear the girls
must look to their laurels another year,

An Imposition.

There is much truth in what
the Port Gibson Reveille says
here:
The Reveille has for some time
noted the thoughtless way in
which the public imposes on the
local merchants. In town it is a
common practice for a lady to
step into a store and order a five
cent purchase sent to her home,
althoughlshe may be on her way
home at the time. There is an
element of selfishness in this
which is inexcusable. The merch-
ant, for fear of offending a GUS
toner, cannot refuse. Another
practice, which is even more rep
rehensible, is for a person, who
is not a regular customer. to have
small purchases charged and then
compel the merchant to send re-
peatedly for the money. Merch.
ants cannot be as Independent in
matters of this kind as formerly,
Business is depressed every
where, and they cannot afford tc
offend. The same people who sc
glibly ask credit at home SEND
their cash to foreign mail order
houses, of which they never
dream of asking an accommoda.
! tion.
