FIVE SHORT WEIGHT CASES IN
 CITY COURT

As the result of State Policemen Stiles and Fine coming into this see ton this week, five cases of selling butter short weight were disposed of by the Putnam city court. All of the cases were technical, as it was not thought that there was any intent to give under weight The average was one and one and half ounces short. Two of the defendants were whole salers.
 The only way that the seller can protect himself is to weigh each pound of butter as 1t is delivered. While the packages are purchased in good faith by the dealer IS a pound, he Is liable if it IS found that they do not come up to the required sixteen ounces.

Allied diplomats here believe the
time has arrived for action in the Bal
kama Opinions vary as to whether
this should be belligerent or concil-
iGtory.
The Greeks, Serbians, ana Balkan
allies are urging that the allies start
q determined campaign against Ger
many's Balkan ally. Insisting that
Bulgaria can be frightened" into
breaking with the central powers.
British. French. and Italians, as
we'll as American statesmen. are not
altogether in favor OF letting the
Turco-Bulgar quarrel develop. They
balieve that military action against
the Bulgars would reunite the antag
onIstic factions in view of q common
peril. Diplomacy rather than force
will accelerate the break, they be-
lieve.
Germany Reserved.
Germany, according to cables, has
taken a reserved attitude and de-
clared herself willing to let Turkey
and Bulgaria settle the Martha,
Thracian and Dobrudja question. The
Bulgars, however, are insisting that
Germany live up to her promise of
moral support" to Bulgaria's terri
torial aspirations, made at the begin
ming of the war.
THE Dobrudja question has reached
its height" writes the Sofia Mir, Of
fetal organ of the National party. 1T
cannot be settled by good wishes and
promises, or by sentimental assur-
ances that we shall succeed in max
ing Dobrudja Bulgarisn, but by SIM
ply forcing the Turks TO give way.
