REFUGEES TROUBLE HOLLAND
Hundreds Still Observation-Disclosures
Called Oversevere by the
Dutch Press.

Harderwijk. Holland.-Hundreds OF
men and women of all natiOnalities,
considered undesirable but accorded
refuge and hospitality by the Neither
lands, are still confined behind barbed
wire fences in the big war internment
camp here They still are sources Of
trouble to the Dutch government.
Many Of them are war refugees, es-
capped from Germanysor Belgium, and
to their number since the war have
been added several scores of Russians
of bolshevist tendencies, whom the
government has confined here for safe
keeping.
The Russians have been particularly
troublesome, but the means taken by
one Of the Dutch military officers in
charge of the camp to control their
actions are reported in the Dutch press
to have been so severe that recently
a number of Dutch soldiers are said to
have mutinied rather than obey the
orders.

Minneapolis, Kan.-Visions Of at

hard-earned cash. Homer Hograth. q
farmer near this town, applied for q
warrant for Gallileo Grubino, alias
Gallileo Grub, alleged participant in
the discovery of the north pole and pro-
motor for the aurora Borealis Ice
company"
One blazing hot day last July CALI
leo appeared on the Hograth farm. He
was equipped with an apparatus SINH
lar to those used by surveyors. He
seemed busy and preoccupied, continu-
ually looking toward the skies and
gesticulating, as if absorbed In cal
culating some obstruse problem in
mathematics.
Finally. Hograth says, the stranger
suddenly exclaimed excitedly "This Is
the spot. the very spot" Then Gallileo
offered to buy the farm, but Hograth,
seeming a mysterious fortune, refused
to sell.
Upon his fouth visit HOgrath says
Gallleo agreed to take Hograth into

scoop. to be attached to the pole
and to be run by electricity. In

Gallileo explained. the scoop would dip
into the ice of the arctic, and as the
earth revolved the scoop would grad
ually tip and its contents fall to the
earth in the exact longitude and lati-
tude of Hograth's farm.
Hograth. after paying the $4,000.
agreed to remain on the farm and take
care of the ice, while Gallileo would
return to the pole and harness his
scoop to it.
Gallileo is still at the pole.

new SURVEYS NECESSARY
Long Series of Disputes and Compli-
cations Likely to Arise-Old Boun-
daries Of Farms Are Completely
Wiped Out.

Ypres, lgum.-Thousands of Bel
gian families probably never will find
their former homes in No Mans Land
All means of identifying them have
been shot away.
They will find homes, of course,
somewhere in that desert waste, per-
haps on what used to be somebody
else's land But the exact location of
their own sacred bit of ground may
forever remain a mystery.
Nearly five years of ceaseless bonn
bardment has obliterated the land
marks upon which the pre-war land
surveys were based The old bounda-
ries which distinguished one farm
from another have literally been
pounded into the earth-too deep for
resurrection.
New surveys will come in time, prob
ably more scientific than the old. Ev-
eryone who once owned part of the
great battlefield will receive some
thing, equal in size and as near as pos
sible to where his former home Is
thought to have been.
Peace OF Mind VaniSheS.
But in another sense this can never
compensate. Nor can the old peace of
mind ever fully return to folk so at
tached to their own little piece of
death from shell fre-and sometimes
not even this-coud induce them to
desert it.
This is one phase of tomorrow's hui
man story in that vast, cratery desc
lation which reaches here beyond eye
range in every direction-once one of
Relgium's most beautiful farming dis
trictS
AS yet, very few homeseekers have
returned. OF these, some took one de-
spairing look at the miles of water
logged shell areas and climbed back on
train for the place from whence they
came-to wait few months more un-
time to make little progress.
Others are still searching among the
ruined trenches and shell holes. filled
with marsh grass and stagnant water,
for clues to their homes.
Landmarks Are Demolished
The big stone at the corner bound
ary-and from which. perhaps all sur
veys for the entire neighborhood were
made-the well in the front yard, the
house, the barn, the shade tree over
the. gate-a1l have simply disappeared
under wars terrible effacement. Moth
ing remains to indicate where they
once were.
What will happen when the real van
guard Of the exied Arcadans finally
arrives? Opinions here differ.
Some predict general scramble to
stake out plots on the most desirable
Dr. rather, least desirable-lOcations,
1 mild restaging of some of the Incl |
dents in our own American history,
such as when the squatters rushed in
TO the Middle West
And then a long series of disputes
and complications when others arrive
who believe themselves the rightful |
owners of the "claims," with probably |
vears of legal entanglements in court

prevailing conditions it might be ex-

Ancient City Of Pressburg
Changes Character With
Coming of New Rulers.
RESULT OF PEACE FARLEY
Resentment Shown Over the Employ
ment of czechs in Government Po-
sitions Formerly Occupied by Hun
aarians-Many Are Expelled.

| Bradshaw, SlOvakia.-It is only on
Czechoslovakan maps that this an
cient Hungarian city of Pressburg can
be located by it's new name. Ruled by
+ Hungary for a thousand years, II
passed under the control of the new
| CzechOslOvakian republic by the decis-
| ion of the peace conference, and a
| large part of it's inhabitants do not
take kindly to the new order of things.
Its people are domnantly Gertnanic
or Hungarian.
The street signs are in German and
Hungarian characters. and now to them
is being added Czech The old postal
and telephone employees have been re
placed by Czechs and Czech high Of
icers installed in the government
Sl0vak regiments on duty here have
been replaced by purely Czech soldiers.
In a city as old and conservative and
routine as this, drifting through the
centuries undisturbed In its social GUS
toms, these things have made feeling
run rather high in certain social strata.
Many Are Expelled.
Persons, regardless Of sex, who have
not acquired legal residence are being
expelled. One man who told the ASSo-
ciated Press he had lived and done
business here for forty years was ex-
PEELED a few days ago. The list Of
those cited for expulsion is said to con-
tain names Of dead persons.
Some Hungarians do not hesitate to
express their resentment over the EN-
ployment of Czechs in government po-
sitions here formerly occupied by the
Hungarians. Czechs and many Slo-
vaks of the educated classes who hold
Office under the government say this
feeling is due to Hungarian and Ger
man propaganda, and has no real
strength or extent. Also they admit
the necessity of Czech officialdom, as
Slovakia has little or no educated class
from which to draw executives Of abil-
ity.
Hard to Upset Tradition.
It Is hard to upset rudely the tradi-
tions OF ten centuries, and talks with
many persons, both in Official and@un-
ollcial circles, would indicate that the
antagonism displayed toward the
Czechs is a natural condition of this
period Of transition and is not deeply
rooted. Probably it is stronger here
in Pressburg than in the other parts
of Slovakia, where the change is not
so apparent.
The school question plays a very
prominent part in the situation here.
The government has abolished the Ger
man and Hungarian languages in the
schools, and thissmeans general Dust

Suggestions For Preparing Fleece FOr
Market

Suggestions For Preparing Fleece For
Market
Shear the sheep when the wool is
absolutely dry, never when there Is
any moisture in the fleece.
The sheep should be shorn only
on a smooth, dry surface, preferably
a planed board Flooring, never on the
dirt.
Care should be taken to keep the
fleece intact. Avoid second cuts,
which reduce the average length of
the staple.
Clip all locks from each fleece and
pack separately. Never permit them
to remain in the fleece.
Fleeces should be prepared with
the flesh side out, never the wealth
err side.
Fold, roll, or use fleece box for pre-
pairing the fleece.
Tie each fleece separately. Never
tie two fleeces together, nor pack and
market united wool
Use only enough twine to tie fleece
securely
Paper or hard glazed surface twine
should be used. Never use sisal or
binder Irvine.
Never permit the fleece to come in
