Austria Sends Troops to
Save Food From Ukraine

Amsterdam, March 2.-The decision
of the Austro-Hungarian govern
ment to send troops into the Ukraine
was explained yesterday in the upper
house of the Austrian parliament by
Premier Won Seydler as having been
taken in response to an urgent re-
quest for assistance from the Ukrain-
ian government. The request was
made, he said, in consequence of
events in Ukraine which threatened
to interfere with the transportation
OF fnndstuffs.

the war garden propagandists urged
backyard patriots to plant their po-
tato peels, cutting the eyes a little
deeper than usual, and thousands of
them obeyed. Reports showed the
peel plants to have been a great sue

many failures, because table potatoes
bought indiscriminately in the mar

the same results as tubers grown,

FIRE PROTECTION PROBLEM.

AS Oroville Is scattered over a con-
siderable territory, being strung out
from TIE northern to the southern bor-
der mile or more, this thing of re-
spending to an alarm of fire works a
great hardship upon the members of
the fire department. There is no lack
OF willing ness on their part to get out
whenever the siren means out it's
OF willingness on their part to respond
It is q simple matter Of endurance. Few
men can run half mile and then be
In any condition to fight fire, especial
ly men of sedentary habits without ath-
etic training, and that condition is not
improved by being compelled to help
drag ton of hose over the route. In
an Offhand estimate there have been
some twenty fires within the past few
years, and with the exception of five
or six the department had to hoof it
upward OF a quarter or half a mile.
Considering the ground covered it is
really surprising what excellent work
the boys have accomplished in the way
OF saving property. 1t is true enough
the autos are generally at hand to haul
the apparatus, yet even in that case
1t Is necessary for most of the firemen
to depend upon "shanks mare" in Or
der to get there. Altogether too often
jealous citizens who have used their
cars to help along the apparatus have
had the car considerably damaged,
damages that cannot be avoided no
matter what care Is exercised. Every
BODY realizes that the greater the
speed In getting water on fire the
more chance there is to save property
endangered, and the problem is what
TO do to improve the efficiency of the
department. There is a strong senti-
ment favoring the town purchasing an
auto truck and fitting the apparatus
TO the vehicle. This method Is in use in
many OF the smaller towns that must
depend upon volunteer firemen for
satisfactorily at Okanogan. OF course
1t must be taken into consideration the
Initial cost and subsequent upkeep,
and auto trucks cost money and cannot
be operated without expense. Another
suggestion Is that the town provide
two more hose reels with hose and
station one in the east part of town
and the other in the extreme south
part of town, so that the distance to
any fire that could possibly occur
would not be so great from any one of
the hose houses as to prevent speedy
action. This could be done at a much
less cost than the investment in a
truck. Some decision to provide more
adequate protection must be devised or
decided on during the present year as
protection becomes more imperitive as
the town grows.

THE GERMAN WAY.

The following "order Of the DAY
shows how the town of Huy escaped
like fate. Drunken German soldiers
were frightened and began shooting
men and burning houses. The COM
handing officer condemned this %
cause it was done without his order
and because two German soldiers were
wounded. 1t is evident that massacres
and arson were permitted only when
commanded by the officers.
Last night shooting affray took
place. There is no evidence that the ~
habitants of the towns had any arms
in their houses, nor Is there evidence
that the people of the town took any
part in the shooting; on the contrary
1t seems that the soldiers were under
the influence of alcohol, and began
shoot in seneless fear of an attack
The behaviour of the soldiers dur
ing the night, with very few excep'
tons, make scandelous impression.
Its highly deplCrable when Officers
or non commissioned officers Sc
houses on fire without permission o.

as the case may be, the senior Officer
Ior when by their attitude they encouf
