During the Sec- ond war, when Bulgaria, Serbia, and Greece were fighting over the spoils which had been wrested from the Turks in the previous struggle, Ru- mania again remained an interested bystander until the closing days of the conflict; then she threw her weight with Greece and Serbla in time to demand as her reward the valuable strip of Bulgarian territory lying north and east of a line drawn be- tween Turtukai and Baltchik, in the Dobrudja region, between the Dan- ube and the Black Sea. This prize added some 2,900 square miles to her area. “If, as is reported, Russia has prom- ised the big Balkan te the impor- tant province of Bessarabia, which ad- joins it on the northeast, 17,000 square miles will be added to Ru- manian domains, together with two ! and a half million kindred people. In addition to this tempting spoil of diplomacy, it is highly probable that the Rumanians will expect Bukowina as their share of the ‘paripgs’ in the event the central powers are defeated, for this Austrian orown-land was a part of the Rumanian province of Moldavia up to 1777 at which time it was appropriated by the larger na- tion. Rumanians still ocomprise a large percentage of Bukowina’s popu- lation. “The Rumanian war budget for the fiscal year ending just prior to the outhreak of the war was $20,000,000. The infantry of the standing army is cquipped with the Mannlicher maga- zine rifle, (five cartridges) named after the Austrian inventor and much used in both Austria and Germany. The horse and fleld batteries are armed with Krupp quick-firing 75 millimetre guns. “In the transportation of Russian troops as well as in handling her own forces to the Austro-Hungarian and Bulgarian borders Rumania’s 300 mile railway system, nearly 95 per | cent. of which ate-owned, would | play an extremely important role, as | would also that great water highway, | the Danube, which flows out of Aus- | | Washington, D.

Rumania possesses iie means to solve in part both these problems. “With an area about equal to that of the State of' Arkansas, but with a population nearly five times as great, Rumania is essentially an agricultural country, producing vastly more wheat in 1915 than Bulgaria, Serbia, Greece and Montenegro combined. Its crop last year (89,000,000 bushels) equalled the joint production of our two fer- tile wheat states, Minnesota and Iowa.

(New Haven Journal-Courier). entific periodicals and scientific are not content, it seems, to let rest the condemnation of President Wilson, because under his administra- tion, Dr. Durand was forced from the directorship of the census to make way for another more in political sympathy with the administration. They do not so much question the ac- curacy of the charge brought by Mr. Hughes as they regret the fact that ince the president's sincerity in mat- ters of scientific interest is large the whole truth is not told about him. The Scientific Monthly is one that takes Mr. Hughes to task in this re- gard. It does not attempt to con- ceal a little sinning on the president's part, but what it regards of greater importance is the fact, unrecorded in political speeches, that of all the presidents since 1863 Mr. Wilson has consulted more frequently the various scientific bodies and scientific men as to appointments and has respected their counsel. This was true in the | case of the chief the weather bu- reau, against heavy partisan odds, and the case of the commissioner of es. Says the Scientific Month- “In other cases President Wilson as asked and followed the advice of scientific bodies and scientific men, and his record in this respect is cer- tainly better than that of any of his recent predecessors.” Prof. Edwin €. Conklir. a Princeton scientist of | note, testifies to the same effect. He says over own signature: ‘“The fact ie that no president within recent times at least has taken so much pains to obtain the advice of scientific so - cieties and of scientific men regardin appointments to scientific positions within the government; and none has more faithfully followed that advice.” | This sort of testimony from periodi cals and individuals who are not ¢ cerned with political matters certain- ly places Mr. Wilson under heavy ob- | ations Mr. Hugl for having pointed out his delinquencies in the matter of scientific appointments.

T e continental nations gained a short or a melodious word for the new science, while such an unmanageab mouthful as “moving pictures” was the best that the English langnage could do. Of course, popular usage soon abridged this to the shorter and more expressive ‘“movie,” which Eas not, however, acquired the nity and status of a literary word. The word, indeed, is so inadequate that there is a tendency to adopt, to describe the moving pictures, one of the terms obtaining in other coun- tries.

Did you ever heal of one Well this breed has prevailed in several Kentucky counties for close on 100 years, says the editor of Farm and Home. In 1913 the breeders of the Red Berkshire organized the Ken- tucky Red Berkshire association. At the Kentucky state fair the Red Berkshire has heen rccognized —anc shown and has been the cause of con- siderable int st and comment 3 As with all breeds the origin of the Red Berkshire is lost in tradition. The oldest citizens say that way back be fore 1830, John W. Walker Hilery Gibbs of Girrad county drove such hogs to the southern market. They would buy several hundred head lo- cally and start with them for the sea- ports of North Carolina. These pigs at the start would be simply gooc growing porkers. They would be moved gradually-over the trail, fed or corn purchased from farmers along the route and get to the southern market around Christmas time in good flesh ana excellent killing condi- tion. The Red hogs, have been very popular tucky farmers and cattle feeders, and today the cattle feeders of central Kentucky use them almost exclusive- ly to follow their feeders. In the early days they were simply known as Red hogs, at one time being called the Silver Creek Reds. Later they were known as Red Berkshires, because they are essentially bacon type and are somewhat similar to the Berkshire of years ago. The Berk- shire, of course, has changed typi materially in recent years and ‘ the close similarity no longer exists These Red Berkshire breeders claim that their hogs have been kept pure for many generations. Their claim te purity is apparently sustained by the remarkable prepotency of these ani- mals when crossed other breeds, Crossed on black hogs they invariablysy stamp their color and type on the off- spring. The Red Berkshire type resembles the Hampshire t more than any other. The color varies from a deep cherry red to a light yellow. White feet and white spots on the forehead are quite common. The head is of medium width between the eves and the face is straight, even and regular | They are smooth, symmetrical, and { have strong backs and feet and ex- ceptional hams. The general range of size is smaller than that of standara well-known breeds, although weights of 500 te 700 pounds have been known. What they lack in scale they make up in vigor and thrift.
