THE RICHMOND PALLADIUM AND SUN-TELEGRAM, FRIDAY, SEPT. 19, 1919.

BULGARIANS PROTST,"BUT SIGNTREATY Document is Presented to Representatives of Balkan Kingdom. (By Associated Press) PARIS, Sept. 19 Tho Bulgarian treaty was presented to the representatives or that country at 10:40 o'clock this morning. After the delegates had assembled, Georges Clemenceau, president of the peace conference, spoke briefly in opening the session. He was followed by General Theodoroff, head of the Bulgarian mission. M. Theodoroff spoke for fifteen minutes, pleading that the Bulgarian people were not responsible for the war, but that the Bulgarian government had thrown the country into the struggle. He realized however, he said, that the people must share the responsibility. " "They are willing to do so" he said, "but they feel that in no way have they committed such a crime as will compel them to accept servitude." King Ferdinand and Vaseil Rados-

lavoff, Bulgarian foreign minister in 1919, were blamed for Bulgaria's entry into the war by M. Theodoroff. Ho said the Bulgarian people did not approve of the German alliance which he declared came to them as a cataclysm, "but they realized they must accept part of the responsibility. "We have committed faults," he paid, and we 6hall bear their consequences within the bounds of equity but there i a punishment no crime can justify and that is servitude." Each of the 27 governments participating in the conference, including Rumania, were present. Frank L. Polk, head of the United States delegation, sat on M. Clemenceau's right, and Sir Eyre Crowe, the new British plenipotentiary to the peace conference, sat on the president's left. Many delays have marked consideration of the treaty. Worl. on the pact was begun on May 26, but the negotiations with Germany and Austria prevented the peace conference from completing the convention until late this week. Although the United States was not at war at any time with Bulgaria, she will be a signatory to the treaty for the purpose of adding her influence in securing observance by Bulgaria of the covenant of the league of nations, which is an integral part of the pact. This . country, however, will not be represented on the interallied commission charged with the enforcement of the financial clauses of the treaty. Thrace was Obstacle. Disposition of Thrace was the subject on which the peace conference was forced to spend the most time in the preparation of the treaty. This question has not been finally adjusted but Thrace is to be excised from Bulgarian territory and left under ths supervision of the principal allied and associated powers. Bulgaria, under the treaty terms, however, is assured an economic ouelet to the Aegean.

tist, In an address Wednesday at Midland institute, in connection with memorial ceremonies held on the occasion of the 100 anniversary of the death of James Watt, inventor of the condensing steam engine, touched upon the atomic properties of matter. Sir Oliver declared that the first utilization of atomic properties of matter was in wireless telegraphy. He added that if the atomic energy of an ounce of matter could be utilized, it would be sufficient to raise the Ged-

man ships sunk in the Scapa Flow,

ana pile them on top of the Scottish mountains.

National Crop Improvement Service !

EED whi-at must be treated every

year to ho safe, whether there are any smut spores showing in the

wheat or not. Smut spores are microscopic plants and a few of them on the seed mny ruin the crop. Forty bushels of wheat may be treated -with one pint of full strength formaldehyde In forty gallons of water. The smut spore attaches itself to the seed and grows up through the plant. It is therefore necessary to kill the smut (which Is also known as "bunt") before the seed is planted. The process is very simple. Many farmers prefer to use a wagon hrix. In which rose, If all the grain Is wet In the solution and shoveled over, the wagon may follow the seeder and the grain be planted moist. The Float and Skim Method. It Is usually best to treat the grain before seeding.

Saw a barrel it two, making two tuba. One tub is raised and the grain Is put into it and the solution poured over it, until it Is submerged, then all the floating matter should be skimmed oh5. This serves a double purpose because it disposes of the light seed which has pc-M germination and little plant food. The liquid is then drawn off Into the lower tub (a short piece of hose used as a siphon Is the simplest way) and the treated grain Is then piled on a canvas, where it Is covered with sacks or blankets which have also ben soaked in the same solution. After a few hours or overnight the grain should be uncovered, spread out and dried. Do not work In freezing weather. Test your grain drill to see that It is properly set, in case the grain Is swelled or packed.

The diagram shows how it works

Fresh air (just a with a furnace) is drawn In at the tides, heated evenly to several hundred degrees temperature, and discharged not through the flue and chimney, but through the top of the hot-air chamber intt the rtom. This creates a thorough circulation of hot air that will successfully heat several rooms. Even the upstairs rooms can be heated by the aid of a imple pipe connection. "'"'!' ; X I j- stPSMS

th Stove toitti a "LittU Furnace" in it is two heating systems in one not a stove, not a furnace, but a combination of the best features of both. It sets in the room like a stove, its exterior looks like a stove but there the similarity ends. For its interior is utterly different from any stove you have ever seen inside it is built like a hot-air furnace.
