PAGE TWC Abbeville Bull Association b . I Clemson College, May 28.?Ab- c beville county has the distinction of having three Jersey Bull Associa- t tions, her nearest rival being Spar* s tanburg county, which has / two. Twelve other counties have one as- ^ sociation each, and others are be- ^ ing organized. j The Bull Association Work in t Abbeville was begun in March j s 0 vpar I . l?iy?narcny mure Luau ~ ^t ago?by County Agent W. A. Row- ( ell, with the assitance of the Exten- j sion Service dairy specialists, and j ^ was completed in April, 1020. The L first association was organized in J j the spring of 1919 with four ^ "blocks" that is, four community j groups of farmers who own jointly j * a purebred bull for the improve- { ment of their dairy cattle. The j four communities making up these ^ blocks are Due West, Donalds, Arborville, and Central. j This first association proved ^ such a good object lesson during c 1919 that early in 1920 the second j association of three blocks was or- T ganized in the Community of Cal- j houn Falls, Lowndesville and Mid- c way; and closely following the ^ third association was organized in j the Antreville, Level Land and j Means Chapel communities. There j are 79 members in the first asso- ; ciation, 30 in the second, and 42 in the third, making a total of 151 j members in the county. The ten bulls owned in the three associations cost $2,780 or an aver * **" - *? age of ?278 eacn. xne ioui ju first association are of Hood Farm j breeding, those in the second are j of Taylor-Shankin breeding.

Sup-! lortei's of the relief legislation lave announced that they will pre-j lulls and the dams of all are .J tegister of Mej-it cows, with record c if 500 or more pounds of butter. County Agent Kowell reports r hat it is hard to say how many v crub bulls have been replaced by o hese ten pure-breds, but it is safe I o say that at least two or three ^ imes that many scrubs have gone v nto the discard and that, counting *i he value o fthese scrubs for slaughter and the comparative cost I )f upkeep ,the purebreds are more \ jconomical to own and to maintain ;han were the numerous scrubs vhich have been displaced. Best of * ill, the Bull Associations are crea- c ing a demand for purebred regis* ? ered cows, and while only a few t lave yet been bought, eventually ? he work of the associations will c sliminate from the county not on- c y scrub bulls but scrub cows as * veil. - 1 And with the advent of good >ure-bred dairy cattle there will v jrow rapidly a bigger demand for 1 >ther pure-bred livestock. Certain r t is that Abbeville has started i c ight in beginning on dairy cattle, * 'or nothing is more needed in most * :ounties to improve country living r han good family cows. The ten 1 >urebred bulls belonging to these a r 3ull Associations will be worth to Abbeville many times the $2,780 0 vhich they cost. ? 50NUS ADVOCATES START FILIBUSTER a t Ufoe-Viinorf rtTC TVTav 99 PrODO- ^ llOOlllllglrVl., j ^ lents of soldier relief legislation * aunched their filibuster in the 1 louse today immediately after the c ipeakpr's gavel fell, and it was 25 1 ninutes before the chaplain, the f " "" f !ar1 Owners i ? rition to Repair Any the EVER-READY Written Guarantee \ c ee Inspection and 1 ] I iarage 5INESS COLLEGE d, S.

Sofia, May 29.?Like most other European countries, Bulgaria's finan:ial problem is a serious one. Facing in indemnity to the allies of $450,)00,000 and a national debt of severil billions, she has a gold reserve of >nly $7,349,000, and a silver reserve ?f $3,545,600. Her war debt amounts n $9 ftflft fiOO.OOO and her revenue v f ? > ~ ~ ~ , ast year was $35,000,000. Added to these burdens rs the ad-J 'erse rate of exchange. The Bulga-j ian leva, worth normany 20c has iow a value of only a cent and a( [uarter. Alexander Stambolisky, the >rime minister, has expressed the! lope that the United States govern nent might extend a loan to Bulgaia to tide her over her present finmcial crisis. An advance of $10,000;100 he said, would improve the value if Bulgarian money and facilitate he purchase by the government of ;oods in the United Stales. In addition to her surplus of wheat ind maize and a large number of catle, Bulgaria's most valuable staple j isset is her tobacco, of which she las 30,000 pounds of opium Tor medcinal purposes and a considerable luantity of attar of roses, the latter! >eing valued at $100 a pound. A nurcoer 01 American commercial irms have established offices in Soia and limited quantities o> made roods are finding their way on the narket. Italy and England also are' :arrying on an active trade with Bulgaria.
