HenIey.Griffin

Last Wednesday in Memphis Charles
M. Henley, son of E. T. Henley of this
city. was married to Miss Cora Griffin
and left few hours later for short
visit to his father here.
He was reared here and lived here
until last year when he accepted a po-
sition in Memphis, in which city he has
since been. He was for long time
an employe of The Falcon and was
found true to the interests intrusted to
him. He recently secured a position
with the Southern Railway in their
Memphis Offices which position he now
holds.
Those here who met the bride on her
short visit were particularly we'll pleas
ed with her womanly bearing and her
charming personality and adjudged her
finely fitted to preside in the home of
her chosen husband.
After a short visit here they return
ed to Memphis where they will make
their home, and The Falcon joins other
friends here with the very best OF
wishes.

The Liberty Wheat Crop

Tennessee farmers are asked by the
national Government to increase their
wheat acreage for the coming crop by
approximately 2O0.0 acres.
The nation is appealing for the great
est wheat acreage ever sown in order
to insure an abundance of bread for
the people Of this country and the ma
tions allied with US, and to provide
against possible crop failure. Every
resource of the nation is being mobiized
for a great military victory over the
Hun next year. All plans are being
made to crush the enemy during 1919.
The Liberty Wheat Crop" is part
of the general military plan.
This state has made an enviable rec
ord in responding to all war calls. 1t
has over subscribed its quotas of the
Liberty loans; it has given more than
was asked for the war benevolences;
its people have conserved food; they
have obeyed the requests Of the Fuel
Administration and the state has given
every soldier and every sailor asked of
it During the past year, despite an
acute labor shortage. the farmers have
produced more foodstuffs than were
ever grown before in a single year in
the history of the state.
While not unmindful of the serious
difficulties that confront the farmers
of the state in securing an adequate
labor supply, it is confidently believed
that they will SOW rather more than
the 1000 increased acreage request
ed. The additional acreage has been
lotted among the several counties by
the division Of extension of the Univer-
sity of Tennessee. If every farmer
will pledge a small increase the State
will ''go over the top" with whoop-
Nashville Tennessean.

should plan and decide on the best To-

how much seed will be required for

Space for Garden.
II gardener ehould desire to plant
all of the vegetables mentioned, 1t is
calculated by garden specialists Of the
q. s. department Of agriculture that
enough space could be found for them
In one-fOurth of an acre. However. 1t
Is advised that the gardener, unless he
has had one or more years experience,
center his work on as few as six OF
the more important vegetables. Fer
most Of the vegetables listed the
paintings may consist OF the entire
quantities mentioned. Relatively
small quantities of caulihower, egg
plant and parsley should be sufficient
for most families. The entire supply
OF string beans. bush Lima beans,
sweet corn, lettuce, peas and radishes
should not be planted at one time, but
successive paintings two or three
weeks apart should be made 50 that
a fresh supply of the vegetables may
be had throughout the season.
OF early Irish potatoes peck to
a bushel win be required, and OF late
potatoes 4 bushel to l bushel or more,
depending upon the amount Of ground
available for this purpose. If abund-
ant space Is available 1t may be well
to grow enough Irish potatoes to last
throughout the winter.

War Against Bulgaria

WHEN Bulgaria sent bodies of her troops
w to fight the allies in France she for
feited whatever consideration this govern
ment has extended to her. She committed
the overt act of war against the United
States. She abandoned the isolation which
protected her from declaration of by
America, and there seems no sound reason
why Congress should longer delay that deca-
ration. Naturally, Congress hesltates to act
without recommendation from the Presi-
dent, inasmuch as lie is charged with the
conduct of foreign affairs but the same new
considerations which influence doubtless
will influence the other.
AS long Bulgaria confined her war to
the Balkans; as long as she lent herself to
none of the designs of her allies; as long
rs she removed herself from contact with
American troops, and long as she perpe-
trated no hostile act against this country, the
President felt no inclination to make war
upon her in an active sense. He even thought
ii worth while to maintain a semblance OF
diplomatic intercourse with her, thereby
establishing degree Of communication with
the central powers. The same was true of
Turkey But if the official advices from Lon
don and France are accepted. it is certain
that Bulgaria has been drawn into the French
theater of war. Allied commanders insist
that they have identified and even encount-
cred Bulgarian troops, and that they have
discovered bulgarian guns among the Ger
man batteries. This means that the Ameri-
can troops may any day find themselves ar
raycd against the soldiers of nation with
which their country is at peace This will
not deter the Americans. it may be assumed
from fighting the Bulgarians to the death
but such a combat would add touch of
absurdity to the diplomatic relationship of
the two governments
The common sense of the situation would
seem to be an immediate declaration of war
against both Bulgaria and Turkey These
two nations are giving all the assistance in
their power to Germany and Austria They
nave joined these allies in the partition of
Russia. each demanding it's pound of flesh
They have united with Germany and Austria
mote chance, the central powers should die
tate the terms of peace at the conclusion OF
this war. one may be sure that Bulgaria and
lurkey Will be at the peace counter clamorire
Tor their slice of the pie. To all effects and
purposes the United States is at war with
both OF them, and If there is any good rca-
son camouhaging the fact. it has never been
stated publicly. Meantime the Bulgarians
and the Turks maintain legations in Wash
ington with STATS composed of wide-awake
men having full opportunity for communica-
ton with their Foreign Offices Also the
TURKS and Bu!Sarans in the country are not
iegaliy allen enemies, are not subject 10

cess to any industrial plant, no matter how
