Ha. Not Reached washington.

wAsHrNGroN, Oct. 20 (Associated
Press) The communication from tne
Russian Soviet Government relating 10
the recognition of foreign debts OF the
Imperial Russian Government incurred
I'D TO 1914, as reported at Riga, had not
reached the State Department to-day,
80 far as could be ascertained. OFFICIALS
would not comment upon the advices.
The obligations of the Imperial RUS
sian Government accruing in this coun-
try. as referred to by the Soviet Foreign
Minister, were said by Treasury OFF,
cials to be debts In the hands OF pri-
vate individuals, as there was no Rus-
sian debt to the United States Govern
.nent prior to 1917. In July, 1917. II
was explained, the American Govern
ment loaned Russia S35, 100000 and later
this was increased to $1S7.72s,76o.
Officials declared they did not know
what individuals held debts of the I'M
perial Russian Government in this coun-
try, but it was recalled that in January.
1920. Secretary of the Treasury Glass,
in q memorandum to the Senate. recalled
that the Russian Government had Of
fered in this country In 1916 two series
of ten year bonds for one billion rubles
each, and in the same year there was
total of SS6,O00,000 outstanding against
that Government in the hands OF the
National City Bank of New York and
J. p. Morgan & Co.
There was reason to believe that the
proposition of a world conference to
consider Russias international liabili-
ties would have to be backed by very
positive assurances as to the stability
of the Russian Government. its inten-
tion to set up and maintain conditions
within Russia which would make posi-
BILE economic intercourse with that coun-
try, and in general an abandonment OF
the path which has been pursued by the
Soviets UP to this time.

About $4,000, 900 900 Involved.

Russias total State debt ut the begin
ming of 1914 amounted to 9,S0S.310.O00
rubles (or about s5,092, 37s,65o at the
rate of S.515 to the ruble. which pre-
vailed at that time).
Subsequently Russia contracted vari-
Gus debts abroad for the conduct OF the
war, and these loans, together with In
ternal bond issues, brought the State
debt up to $4,000. 100000 rubles (about
s16,5S4,5O0.oo0) on September l, 1917
Just before the Bolshevist revolution.
The debts incurred after 1914, how
ever, are not included in the new Soviet
offer.
Figures are unavailable to show the
distribution of the State debt either IN
1914 or 1917, and it cannot be definiteiy
ascertained how much was owed to the
various foreign governments and individ-
uals of foreign countries. Unofficial fig-
ures were given out in Paris few months
ago, showing that at that time the
French Government and French inul-
viduAls had an aggregate investment IN
Russia OF about 26.0o0,O0O.0Oo francs

BUY cows. OF NE,eHeoR

Farmers who have bought cows on
live stock market have often been
disappointed. These animals are apt
to be poor producers, or have bad I'D
ders, or may be diseased. 1t is not
easy to get rid Of communicable dis
eases as tuberculosis, lump jaw and
abortion when once the live stock and
the place become infested. When
these animals do not seem to be doing
well the farmers put them .on the
market and start them towards the
butcher to get what he can out of
them. It is not good policy as a
rule to gather up a bunch of these
and put them on another farm
II. you want to buy few more cows
make inquiry of your neighbors and
go over to see what you are getting.
Note their condition and the condition
under which they have been kept. The
neighbor will do better by selling his
good cows at home rather than ship
them. ~. > -.
If you have difficulty in finding what
you want, call on the Farm Bureau.
