SPANISH PROGRAM
 WILL BE CONTINUED
No Change in Military Directorate Says Premier in Answer to Criti-
 cism From Former Head.

Madrid Aug. 8. - Setting at rest rumors of a change in the military directorate, Premier Primo De Rivera has issued statement declaring that administrative conditions are satisfac- tory and that he intends continuing his program with firmness.
 The statement was in direct reply to a letter from former Premier Mau- ra denouncing the conduct of the gov ernment by notorious military off, cers." Senor Maura's charges. Gen. eral Primo De Rivera said, were de- void of foundation and took no &C., count of the directorate's accomplish ments and its efforts to purify the administration of Spain's affairs.
 In a circular letter to the military commander in Spain the premier de- nounced the "alarmist propaganda" which he alleged was being conduct ed by his enemies.
 My work for tranquility, from which Spain already is reaping bene- fit, is being disturbed by those who pretend to respect nothing" he de- clared. "The directorate has firmly resolved to stand by and enforce the laws, decrees and regulations rigidly, without feebleness nor wavering.
 My tour of Spain, as well as my trip to Morocco. have been utilized by alarmists to further their oVP inter- ests They have not hesitated to abuse my government in an effort to create uneasiness within the minds of the people, but the force of civil as we'll as military opinion which the directorate represents will crush these trouble makers, while that opinion may have absolute confidence in the government and continue to assist me as it has done until now"
 The premier announced that he had submitted various decrees to the king and that he would probably accom- pany him today to Santander, where they would spend several days.

HITS BIRTH CONTROL
Such Methods Will Result in Falling of of Marriages and Race Will Be Threatened.

Toronto, Aug. s.-Power of birth control threatens the future Of the race and will cause the Humber Of marriages to fall off, in the opinion of Sir William Beveridge of London, who addressed the section on econom- ics at the meeting of the British as- sociation for the advancement or science today.
 The statement came during Sir Williams discussion of the reduction of fertility, varying greatly in various countries. The fall in European coun- tries, Russia excluded, from 1881 to 1911 was twenty per cent, he asserted, but varied from Ireland, where 1t was nothing, to Saxony, where it was 40 per cent.
 Fall in the birthrate has been fol- lowed by a drop in marriages sudden and inexplicable, in many countries, he said.

SHEEP DESERVE
PLACE ON FARM
FIT WELL IN ECONOMICS OF
AGRICULTURE in THIS
COUNTY

A great deal of interest has been
manifested by a large number Of lar
mers in Roosevelt county in securing
q small bunch of sheep and getting
started along that line. Fred Rath-
art cashier of the First State Bank,
states that there have been mor in
entries about sheep in his bank the
last thirty days than there have been
for the last ten years, and it IS be-
lieved that farmers as a whole are re-
alizing the vast amount Of money
trey are losing each year by not al
lowing a few head Of sheep to clean
up the waste forage on their farms.
Dual Value
When we stop to realize the dual
income from sheep through the an
nual wool and wether lamb crop, and
when we stop to realize the fact that
these animals will live off from what
is ordinarily waste on the farm, we
certainly cannot help but give them
a great deal of consideration. Under
our farming conditions, one acre of
land producing sweet clover or alfal-
ia will easily take care Of five head
Of sheep. At this ratio, on a hum
bred acre basis, on a five year term,
considering all factors, it is not hard
to determine that the is as much
profit and less labor in utilizing land
for sheep pasture as Their. is in plow-
ing it for a wheat crop. Then, too,
when one thinks Of how well sheep
fit into a weed control campaign, how
they add fertility to the soil, build
ing it up so that when it is desired
to use it as a small grain crop it will

Try This On Your
Next Bill Of Fare

Hereafter, if the efforts of a num-
Der of organizations and individuals
have the desired effect, goat meat
will be designated by a special name
which will be comparable to pork,
beef and mutton. The name sell
ected by the goat-raising interests in.
the Southwest is "chevon." In reply
to requests for approval of this new
name, the United States Department
of Agriculture has stated that there
seems to be no reason why this name
should not be adopted and generally
applied to the meat of this domestic
animal land it, therefore, approves
the name "chevon."
The word "chevon" was created,
after long consideration and many
suggestions, by organizations repre-
producing region. It was made by
combining parts of two French words,
"chevre," meaning goat, and 'mou-
ton" meaning mutton. In other
words, "chevon" means goat mutton.

produce much more heavily, it is not
surprising that there is a keen inter
est in this type of livestock.
Good Arguments
Seven head Of sheep Of the Nord-
man boys living southeast Of Froid,
produced them S28 worth Of wool
this year. These sheep were kept in
a very small enclosure during the
growing season, and after crops were
harvested, were turned loose. In adj
ditlon to this S28 worth of wool, a
good lamb crop was also produced,
one W producing two lambs. A. d.
Picard, a farmer living in the Balm
vile community is another sheep
booster. While Mr.. Picard has no
sheep at the present time and while
he has an extra good wheat crop he
claims that the high cost of labor and
the wild oats are making him think
very seriously of getting sheep.
Clean Up Weeds
Considering the above factors re-
garding sheep, it is believed that it
viii not be long before practically
every farmer has a small flock of
them OF his farm, and he will find
that, while it takes a few rods of
good fence to take care of a few
head, that they will fence his whole
place if he will give them a chance,
addition to that they will thrive
