Farmers of Glynn County:

dip his cows before they are taken
to the bull This is necessary in or
der to protect him against becoming
infested by the cattle tick, and no
man will be allowed the service of
this bull without first dipping his
cows. Only one service TO the COW
is necessary, so do not turn her in
to spend the day, but sec that she is
served once. Lead her into the pen
and hold her by the nose while be-
ing served. This will make it easier
for both the COW and the bull, and
you will get better service This bull
is as gentle as dog so do not be
afraid of him. His name is sClan

IN RURAL RUSSIA
pEAsANTs ARE RISING AGAINST

POSSESSION OF LAND.

London, April 25.-Petrograd dis
patches report that revolutionary
spirit is manifesting itself in the rural
districts OF Russia, bringing long
standing agrarian troubles to head.
Despite the organization of food. com
mittees, which are trying to make
the peasants understand that the land
question cannot be settled until =
constituent assembly is elected. the
peasants are inclined to take matters
in their own hands.
Soldiers, visiting their homes will,
or without leave, spread the news OF
the revolution and lead the peasants
against the land owners.
In the Saratov government, where
the people are often inclined to tur
bulence, the peasants drove the land
owners away, took the land and an
n0unced that they would cultivate It
The fact that they have no seeds IL
delaying sowing. and serious short
age Of crops is feared
In Tamboy the peasants forced
many landowners to sign away their
property. In many districts. however
the peasants are waiting for the au
thorities to act.
