REDUCING SIZE
OF ITS STANDING FORCES

COPENHAGEN, Sept. 27.--The Dam
ish government has ordered another
reduction in the size of the standing
army. The step is taken. it IS state,
mainly for financial reasons, but also
because discipline in the army has
been weakened and its quality deterior-
late under protracted service"
At the beginning of the European war,
Denmark called up $4,000 men in adj
dition to the 1880 who are always
under training. This force was grad
ually reduced to $4,000, and a further
reduction of about % per cent has been
decided upon.
All the parties, except the Consrya-
tive group, have approved of the gov
ernment's decision. The Conservatives
declined acquiescence on the ground
that they could not admit that "the
danger of a violation of Denmarks
neutrality has been essentially dimin-
ished.

Bridges sold to the Dawson Cotton
Oil Co. $50 tons of peanuts at 500
per ton, or $1.25 bushel the trans

to sell.
! Mr.. Bridges, who has long been
one of the county's most enterprising
and successful farmers, did not plant
a stalk of cotton this year, and is well
pleased with the result. Until this
year he devoted a considerable part
of his farm to cotton and grew 1t
successful, but with the appearance Of
the boil weevil he decided there was
less risk and money in cultivating 9TH
