FERDINAND CLAIMS
CONQUERED LANDS
BULGARIA'S RIGHT

The terms Of proclamation issued
recently by King Ferdinand of Bull
garia, setting forth the revised war
aims of that country. have just be-
come known in Washington, and are
interpreted here as a part Of the
German propaganda TO promote dis
sensions in the camps of the allies.
The proclamation addressed itself
particularly to the susceptibiIities Of
the Roumauian and Russian Slavs.
Counting the favor OF the Bolshe-
Wiki, the message declares: The
western powers have preached de-
mocracy to Russia so much THAT 1t
sian people has escaped from the tute-
Iage of western democracy, and after
certain grave errors 1t has placed its
newly acquired democracy a. the
service OF the general peace. The peo-
pies of the western powers ought 10
follow the example of the Russian
democracy"
As to the war aims OF Bulgaria.
King Ferdinand says: The regions
which Bulgaria today holds in her
possession thanks to the valance of
her glorious army and the fidelity of
her heroic allies and to the heroic
qualities Of her civil population, re-
gions inhabited exclusively by her CO.
nationals. belong to her before God
and before man."

As SWINE GROWERS

At the Bradford county boys club
contest held in November, eleven ex-
cellent pure bred pigs were exhibited
At the beginning of the feeding period
i've months ago these pigs weighed
an average of SO pounds each. On

COUNTY AGENTS EFFORTS SAVE
n CATTLE

Through the cooperative efforts Of
the county agents in the southern
and southwestern states this year
hundreds of thousands of valuable
ranges of western Texas suffered q
severe drought in 917. o. In 1918 the
drought continued With increasing in
tensity. Two successive years with
a limited amount of rainfall left the
range practically barren, and the cat
tie roamed them in starving condi-
tion. But in the southeastern
states conditions were different
There was an abundance Of feed and
pasture and few cattle to utilize it.
Through cooperation Of the bureau
of animal industry and the bureau OF
markets of the United States depart
ment of agriculture county agents
in Texas began to get in touch with
the county agents in the southeastern
states where feed was plentiful and
assisted farmers in regions of heavy
crop prohibition to obtain cattle from
the drought stricken regions of Tex
as. During the past year about
100000 head were transported, large
ly through the efforts of the county
agents. This service not only saved
the Texas cattleme1 from financial
loss and assisted in developing prof
liable and much needed branch Of
agriculture in the southeastern states

TRIBUTE TO AMERICAN FARM
Frs

Perhaps no branch of the public SER
vice is in position to recognize so
promptly and appreciate SO fully as
the bureau of crop estimates what
has been accomplished by the farm.
ers Of the United States since the
breaking out Of the world war, says
the annual report of that bureau.
From the reports of its thousands of
voluntary crop reporters and its field
agents who travel over each state
and report weekly and monthly their
observations, the bureau is in CON
slant touch with the progress Of crop
production from month to month and
year and year. It has seen the supply
Of farm labor steadily decrease from
heavy drafts made upon it by other
industries, especially since the be-
ginning of the war and it has noted
the decrease in the supply of eom-
mercial fertilizers 1t has noted also
the steady rise in farm wages and
in prices Of farm machinery and ev-
erything else that farmers have to
buy With an unbounded faith in
the patriotism and determination Of
farmers to do their utmost to help
win the war by maintaining pro,
ducticn Of food and raw materials, it
nevertheless has rarvelled that the
farmers Of the United States appar-
emily have accomplished the impos-
sible by continuing to plant larger
areas and to harvest larger crops in
the aggregate with each year Of the
war in spite Of the difficulties Of
securing farm labor, supplies, ma
ehinery and other necessary arti-
cles
