nv artificial boundaries The effect of intolerance
worst in Greece bad enough everywhere, was to
drive out Of each nation all who belonged to the
wrong language religion do not say race, for
they are all of the same general stock, even the
bulk of the Turks and Greeks. This has filed
the region with refugees, and women whose
fault is that they lived on the wrong side of the
boundaries made for them in the treaty of
Bucharest.
Passing down the long highway which leads over
200 miles from Sofa to Samokov and Dubnitza in
old Bulgaria, then the border of Macedonia,
down the Struma river past Dzumaia to Petritch,
found everywhere the Bulgarian refugees from
the Saloniki district in Greek Macedonia These
have been roughly estimated at $4,000 in number.
Some of these have been given farms or houses
abandoned in Macedonia by Turks who followed
the Turkish army away. Others received farms
left by Greeks when the Greek army went back
after the treaty of Bucharest. The government
grants each person some fourpence day. Some
find work, but after the war there few employ
ers. The cost of living has doubled, the means of
living has fallen. At Petritch, near the present
boundary of Greece there were hundreds of these
waiting about on the stone sidewalks day by day.
They waiting for the powers to revise the
treaty of Bucharest and give them back their
homes in the region above Salonik Some local
Journal had said that this revision coming
soon. It was my duty to assure them that it would
never come. The phrase in Sofia, Europe exists
concerned
The reason for that is clearer now. Europe was
paralyzed by the great terror which has since
come on it in unthinkable catastrophe. There
were some in the concert of powers who were
striving to bring on this catastrophe The "war
of steel and gold' about to give place to real
war; which would end, they hoped, in speedy vic
tory and world power 1t has not ended in that way.
1t has not yet ended at ALL But those who most
looked forward to were the ones who had
least conception of it's certain consequences.
s In the whole length of the Struma valley in
western Macedonia, towns have been burned in
whole or part by the Greek army which pursued
the Bugarians far as the old border of Bull
garia. In Greek Macedonia, at the hands of some
one or all of the three successive armies-Turksh,
Bulgarian and Greek-most of the towns between
Saloniki and Drama have suffered the same fate.
Each of these towns has its share of Greek
refugees from Turkish Thrace. These have been
estimated by Greek authorities numbering 300,-
900. They have come by railway from Adrianople
in box cars belonging to the Greek government.

borne diseases come from the bodies
of persons afflicted with those dis
eases. They do not live long outside
the body and do not originate in ma
ture. For the most part the germs
which get into drinking water and
produce disease come only from hui
man beings and animals.
THE usual sources of farm water
supplies are wells, pumps, springs
and cisterns. Running streams are
so seldom free from dangerous pol
luton that without publication they
cannot be considered safe for domes-
tic use.
1.-THE most common form of water
supply is the shallow well, reaching
into a layer of earth saturated with
water. These are really little more
than reservoirs for surface water
since they drain the surface for a
radius of sometimes several hundred
feet. Wells of this kind should never
be dug within 200 feet of any stable,
barnyard or privy, and should be on
higher ground than these, that all
drainage may be away from them.
They should have a water tight curb
ing and cover and should have pump
for drawing water rather than a
bucket and chain.
Perhaps the safest means of sup
plying water for the country homes
is the driven well or pump. These
should have drains and care should
be taken that no drippings seep back
into the well or down by the side of
the pump

CURE FOR BABY MALADY
Rockefeller Institute Physician Advo-
Gates Injection of Adrenalin.

New York, July 14.-Dr. S. J. Melt
ger of the Rockefeller institute re-
ceived many inquiries today regarding
his treatment of infantile paralysis
which was the only one raised at the
special conference of the academy of
medicine held last night to discuss the
disease now epidemic in New York
city. He urged the treatment of all
cases by lntra-Spinal injections of So
lutions of adrenalin.
This procedure" said Doctor Melt
ger, may save life and in surviving
cases it may reduce the extent of the
final lesion There is no danger in
volved. Monkeys stood as large a
dose as two cubic centimeters in a
single injection. However, in human
infantile paralysis, the injections
should begin with a dose of five cubic
centimeters of adrenalin until more is
learned of the effects
The physician declared he had great
faith in this treatment because of the
remarkable results it accomplished
with monkeys which had been artifi-
cially infected with infantile paralysis
In conjunction with other physicians
he has conducted a long series of elm
ical experiments in this direction.

LOOK OUT FOR WELLS
Doctor Crumbine Warns Against the
"OId Oaken Bucket

Beware of the we'll. That was the
warning issued today by S. ]. Crum-
bine, secretary of the state board OF
health, for the benefit of patrons or
the "old oaken bucket" Just because
the water in the family well is clear
and sparkling is not insurance or pure
water, the bulletin states. Hidden in
the water may be thousands of disease
germs that escape the naked eye, but
bring all manner of trouble to the
patron of the we'll
The bulletin was issued for the
benefit of persons in the rural dis
tricts and small towns. That is where
the family we'll is backed by the
strongest following. Clear, sparkling
water is not always pure water, says
the Crumbine bulletin. This is the
warning which is sent to Kansans in
a special bulletin issued today from
the offices of the state board of
health:
"a refreshing draught from the old
oaken bucket may be the beginning of
a long and possibly fatal illness from
typhoid fever, dysentery, or other dis
ease.

STUDENTS VISIT MODET, FARMS
Under Direction of Mankato Booster
Club 125 Pupils on Junket.

Mankato,- July 14-One hundred
and twenty-five students of the coun-
ty normal, now in session, participated
in a junket here, visiting model
farms, model school houses, orchards,
gardens and live stock herds. The
Mankato Booster club acting through
a committee of three, Walter Smith,
George Putt and Eugene Tyler, fur
nished autos and drivers for the trip.
The party visited the Chris Vande-
venter farm three miles northwest of
Mankato and were given a talk by A
D. Folker, county agent for this coun-
ty, on the subject of corn. The first
standard school of the county was next
visited and a talk on model require
ments given by County superintendent
Miss Lulu Coyner.
The county farm, and the orchard
of Hiram Hulse were also visited, and
instructive talks given at each place
At the farm of John Kemmerer the
students inspected a fine Poland
China herd and took notes on the
ideal arrangement of this farm. At
Jewell, where the trip wa finished,
the citizens served refreshments and
gave a band concert. Lemonade was
also served at other places mentioned.
Normal instructors consider such
demonstration trips highly instructive
t. the students.

PUT SHEEP ON BARREN LAND.
Aggie Instructor Recommends Them
for Fields in Need of Fertility.

Manhattan, July 14.-Barren fields
are made productive and waste ma
terial in stubble fields, fence corners,
and along roadsides is converted into
a marketable product by sheep, points
out A NJ. Paterson, instructor in ami
NAL husbandry in the Kansas State
Agricultural college.
"a small flock of sheep would be an
asset on every Kansas farm" says Mr..
Paterson soil fertility is increased,
weeds destroyed, two cash crops are
produced annually and fresh meat is
furnished The initial cost is low.
"Sheep is one of the most valuable
farm manures, and if properly han
died will greatly increase soil fertility.
Animals on pasture scatter the manure
over the land so that the maximum
fertility is obtained. They spend the
night on high, dry land, and in this
way the poor soil is made profitable.
Barren fields have been made produc
tive by sheep
