OF burylng the dead III the center OF

have been created in the outskirts OF
villages and towns. Telegraphlc, tel

been established, and the Italians are
now engaging in reclaiming the
marshy zone surrounding Valona and
comprising about 5000 acres.
The AlDanians are great admirers
of America added General Scriven,
although only recently have they be-
gun to emigrate there"
In this connection General Scriyen
quoted one of the leading Albanians, a
man who has been to America, as say
ing to him:
The invasion of Albania by the
Balkan states, accompanied by har-
rowing atrocities ON the unarmed pop
ulatiOn, thousands of shepherds and
farmers being slaughtered, towns and
villages destroyed, farms burned, the
flocks devastated and stolen, and hun
dreds of thousands of refugees flock
ing into Valona half starved and per-
ishing from hunger and exposure, have
caused the beginning of emigration to
the United States. The average
American is probably unaware that at
least 10000 have gone to the United
States since the beginning of the
war"
Concluding, General Scriven said:
"The occupation of Albania by Ital-
ian troops has proved the salvation
of the remaining Albanians and the
revival of the Albanian nation"

SPLENDID WORK
Of ITALIANS
IN ALBANIA

ROME, May (by maiD The Ital-
the Americans did in the Philippines,
in helping and uplifting a population
in need of guidance and encourage
ment. This was the remark of Gen.
George Srriven, military attache at
the American embassy, to the Asso-
ciated Press correspondent, upon his
return from a journey of five weeks
through that part of Albania which
has been occupied by the Italians.
''Had it not been for the work of
the Italians there the poor Albanians
would have starved" General Scriven
said 'The Italians have given these
people food, employment, education
and security. Wheat, corn and rice
have been imported into the country,
and the foodstuffs have been distrib-
uted free to the INDECENT and sold at
reasonable prices to those who could
afford to pay for it. Experimental
farms have been opened, schools have
been instituted, and most important
of all, courts of justice, which hitherto
had been nonresident in the country.

judges placed at their heads when

the Bulgarians and the Austrfans on
the frontiers, the work there is not a
work of war, but one of civilization,
and the ground there is most favor
able to such work, for the reason that
the Albanian is an honest man of good
character, possessing the primitive
virtues of courage, truthfulness and
activity. He has the highest respect
for women, who can travel from one
end of Albania to the other alone
without being molested.

STATE EXCHANGES ESTABLISHED
Will Act As Clearing House for Farm
Bureau Exchanges in Handling
Stock and Seeds.

In order to furnish a more econom-
ical and better distribution of live
stock feeds and seeds, state agri-
cultural exchange has been organized
by the field agent in marketing en-
ployed comparatively by the bureau
of markets and the agricultural extern
sion department of Iowa State college.
This state exchange acts as clearing
house for the local exchanges which
have been established by the farm bu-
reaus in practically every county OF
the state. Articles which farmers
have for sale, as we'll as their wants,
are recorded by the local exchanges
and by compiling the lists of the local
exchanges the state organization will
give the farmers much larger field
in which to dispose OF their products
or to supply their wants.
1t is to be distinctly understood that
the exchange is not buying and sell
ing organization. Its services are abb
solutely free. 1t merely serves to
bring the buyer and seller together.
The exchange method Of market
ing, it is pointed out, makes possible
the use of cooperative advertising by
a community. 1t is suggested that the
local exchanges recognize the value OF
the newspapers and that they have an
arrangement with the papers whereby
a certain definite space is used through
out the year Cooperative advertis-
ing is of great value to community,
as it identifies that community as pro-
ducing some certain products and the
small farmer or breeder is helped.
The state exchange already has a
large volume of business, as is shown
by the fact that there are on it's lists
over 800 pure bred Shorthorn cattle,
over 1000 pure bred Poland China
hogs and many other livestock, as we'll
as feeds and seeds.
