went to war; older men went to
war work. The dairyman 'found
himself with a herd of dairy cows
and only himself and his family
(wife 'and children except boys of
fighting age) to take care of
, them. As a result some got pan
i Icky or tired out and held auc
tions of their dairy stock; others
cut down their herds; while oth
ers managed to get along with
high school youth or the hired
help that was available. Subse
quent rulings or selective service
eased the labor situation consid
erably so that latterly there has
been no J great dearth of dairy
hands
Dairymen also had price trou
bles, ' due to mounting costs o
feed and labor. However there
'were limited price increases for
fresh milk and substantial in
creases' in prices of manufactured
.dairy products, .and for the past
year direct - subsidies from the
government in lieu of further in
creases, j - -r ' '':
One great life has been the de
mand for fresh milk, which has
taken up the surplus which, when
sold at factory prices, cuts down
returns for the dairyman (Con

Fights for Allies
LONDON, Aug. '26-() - The
Germans' Balkan front caved in
tonight as Bulgaria ordered nazi
troops out of the ,country and Ro
manians seized ' the Carpathian
mountain passes and did battle
with their former' allies who, were
trying - to escape the Russian on
slaught" ' ; ; ; . :
(The Bulgarian domestic radio,
in a broadcast recorded by the
tJS federal communications com
mission, said that German troops
in Bulgaria already had been dis
armed by Bulgarian forces and
confirmed that Bulgaria had ap
proached the United States and
Britain for terms on withdrawing
from the war.)
As Good as Out -
v Bulgaria's formal withdrawal
from the war was expected hourly,
but the Moscow radio indicated
she already was as good as out,
announcing that she had adopted
an attitude of strict "neutrality"
and planned to disarm any Ger
mans who did not leave the coun
try peaceably.
Bulgarian ability to enforce this
position was an open question but
there have been reports of exten
sive withdrawals of German forces
from that country in recent weeks,
so that those remaining might not
be able to put up effective resis
tance, while those seeking -to flee
from Romania would have to fight
their way into doubtful sanctuary
Russia Explains
The broadcast soviet statement,
most concrete of the many current
reports concerning the balkans,
said Bucharest was firmly held by
the new pro-allied Romanian gov
ernment, -that the old premier,
Gen. Ion Antonescu was under ar
rest in King Mihai's palace, and
that Romanian troops now held the
Carpathian mountain passes that
had been the Germans' strongest
line of hope for defense against the
red army.
