Amsterdam, March 7.-Interven-
ton by Germany in Finland and the
consequent i'll feeling against Ger
many in Sweden is criticized severely
by Independent Socialists and pro-
gressive members of the reichstag, a
Berlin dispatch says.
Baron Won Dem Bussche- Hadden-
hansen, under secretary of foreign af-
fairs, in reply said that Sweden no
longer raised objections to Germany's
action which was taken in response to
appealings for help from Finland. The
occupation of the Aland Islands as a
base, he said, had not yet taken place.

GERMANS SEND NOTES
FROM FRONT TRENCHES
IN ARTILLERY SHELLS
(By the Associated Press.)

Paris, March 7.-Transmission of
urgent orders to troops in the first
line and the sending of interesting in
formation to the rear by projectile is
one of the new developments of trench
warfare, according to the monthly re-
view, La Science ct La Vie.
One of the instruments EMPLOYED
for this purpose by the Germans was
captured in recent successful attack
made by the French at Moronvilliers.
1t consists of a tin cylinder about fiji
teen inches long and an inch and a
quarter in diameter at the mouth of
which is placed a box containing the
message.
Has Range of 300 Yards
The cylinder and message box are
placed in a grenade thrower, which
launches it in much the same way as
aerial torpedoes and are fired from a
trench mortar.
The extreme range of these new en-
gines is about 1900 yards, which is
generally sufficient to cross the zone
of French curtain fire.
The utility of such a system became
apparent with the development of
barring fire that made the carrying
of message by dispatch bearers al
ways hazardous and frequently i'm
possible, and with the wholesale de-
struction of telephone lines by intense
destructive artillery fire.

TROOPS
LIKE AMERICANS
REPORTED TO BE
CORDIAL

LIVERPOOL. July 6.-The high
soldier is held by experienced British
fighters is attested by a correspon-
dent of the Liverpool Post. He
writes:
THE official testimony as to the
quality of the American troops is
confirmed by unofficial evidence
that the new fighting force is APP
preciated highly by the veteran
warriors of three or foul years of
war. Our own men at first were
Inclined to be suspicious of the
Americans because they thought
they would "swank' about coming
in to finish the war, but when they
found that the Americans did not
'swank" and were eager only to
learn the art of warfare, all sus-
picion vanished, and a comradeship
in arms is springing up.
"The Americans in this country
are creating an excellent impression,
and when we get over our ShynesS,
and when the American wounded
are entrusted to our care relation
ships will become still more init
mate. An Australian officer told
me thai he and his friends had come
to regard leave to England as equi-
valent as nearly as possible to a
visit home, and it is hoped that the
Americans will soon come to have
the same feeling"

that the Catlin company has a lease
upon this section which may inter

The particular purpose of the gov
eminent is erecting so many differ

the best process; second. to
encourage the investment of private
capital in the method which is found
best adapted to the needs of this
country. Private capital has thus
far been slow to take up the sha1e
oil investment, and it is in the hope
that successful experiments by gov
eminent experts will tend to stimu-
late the private production of shale

States is taking the initiative in this
regard.
In the event that matters are sat
isfactorily disposed of with reference
to the location of the plant it's cree

SUGAR RULES
NOW MORE
DRASTIC
DECISION Is ANNOUNCED TO
ENFORCE ORDER FOR
SAVING


The state food administration has
issued still more drastic regulations
regarding the use of sugar. The
new rules will affect house holders
only in that sugar cannot be pur-
chased in more than two-pound
quantities at one time, except for
preserving and canning. The cards
that have been in use will be con-
tinued and used the same as here
tofore, except hat only two pounds
can o purchased at one time.
Restaurants, cafes and such
places will be affected and a letter
sen to BENJAMIN j. Henley, Esmer-
aida county administrator, from the
state administration says: "All
users of sugar under statements A.
B, G, and ID must file their state
ments with you before July %.
Otherwise they can get no sugar
for the remainder of 1915"
Statements A, B, c and ID refer

the statements and it is evident the
food administration means business
and that it would be well for all
persons using sugar in business to
Immediately interview the food ad-
ministrator regarding the manner
in which the new rules will apply
to them.
The food administrator empha-
sizes the Importance of this and
calls attention to the fact that every
such business will be affected.
The certificate hat will be used
by the businessman in buying from
the retailer will be used by the re-
taller in buying from the whole
saler, who will use it again in buy
ing from the jobber or refiner, the
negotiable paper in the channels of
trade from consumer to r%efiner.
The state food administration will
in the next few days demand that
every person in the state with
more than a 30-day's supply of
sugar report the surplus quantity
to the food administrator for the
county in which he resides and
hoarders will be made liable to a
penalty.
The letter received here from the
state administration says: There
will be no excuse for anyone plead
ing ignorance of the rules. We
must a v sugar, as the shortage is
acute and serious"

recently arrived in France and is
close enough to the front to hear
the big guns and see dozens of air

writer was especially interested in
the large number of children who
followed the soldiers from the
point of landing through the streets
of the town asking for pennies and
all wearing wooden shoes, making a
noise on the streets unlike anything
heard over here. He says the wo-
men are doing practically all the
farming, including the blowing, and
dong about every kind of work there
is to do.

out by DR.. Day, in charge of the
United States shale oil experimental
bureau, arrived in this city several
days ago for the purpose of complet-

of a government test plant or a sec

to be erected under Mr.. Sherman's
supervision is one of a chain of test
plants being put up all over the
west wherever the shale deposits
are extensive enough to warrant the
expenditure.
The plant t. be installed here will
be an adaptation of the Scottish
process. Mr.. Sherman has recently
completed the construction of a ro-
tary screw process plant at Santa
