NOTE ON WILMA
SENT POLAND BY
ALLIED POWERS
France and England De.
clare Occupation Broke
d ArInistice. 4

London, Oct. 19.-A note with re-
gard to the wilma situation was
handed to the Polish government
Sunday by the French and British
representatives in Warsaw, acting
simultaneously. The note declared
the allied governments considered
the occupation Of Wilma contrary to
the armistice with Lithuania con-
cluded through the mediation of the
League Of Nations, and contrary to
the assurances given by Poland to
the allies and the League of Ma
tons.
The note is friendly, but firm in
tone. q
Both the governments expressed
the opinion that Poland should
completely disavow General Zell-
gouski's action and thus give salts
faction to the League Of Nations,
whose authority, it was pointed out,
had been shaken.
The note said that if the situation
we're not quickly cleared up, the
British and French governments
would have to consider what
further line of action migth be
necessary.

During the deportation OF

the insults of the Turks" Mr..
Martinson said. 'They were
lined up along the streets

wife to suit his fancy. Those
chosen for the harem were fore
ed to submit to the Islam faith,
while those who were not at
tractive were marched away or

In the case of children, Mr..
Martinson said, any who might
be of service were taken over as
slaves and the remainder left
to care for themselves. Men who
had not previously been deport-
ed or killed were forced into the
Turkish army. :

Schaub Farm South of
Town Brings Top Price
F. p. Schaub Farm Sold This
Week To r. A. Satterlly
For $1S,800

F. P. Schaub, who about four
years ago purchased an 80 acre
farm one and one-half miles east
of Sank Centre, and improved
same at a cost of about $4,000,
has disposed Of the farm to r.
A. Slatterley, vice-president of
the National Wool Growers AS
,sociation, Of Pennington, Ia,
for the sum of $235 per acre,
making the total consideration
$18,800, the top notch in land
prices in this section of the
country. The sale was negoti-
ated by J. L. Kellogg.
The high state of fertility to
which this farm has been
brought by Mr.. Schaub and the
splendid improvement placed
thereon, together with it's adj
vantageous location, made it a
DESTROYS location for Mr.. Sat
terley's business.
The new owner is engaged in
the raising of pure bred Shop
shire sheep and will at once
stock his farm with about 300
of these animals.
Mr.. Slatterley believes that
harder sheep can be grown in
this locality than in territory
farther south.
It is the object Of Mr.. Sat
terley to introduce blooded
stock into the sheep raising in
dustry in Minnesota. He is a
shipper of thoroughbred sheep
to all sections of the United
States and to foreign countries.
Mr.. Schaub will not leave
Sank Centre. He will relocate
here and give his time to a
drainage engineering project in
which he has been interested
the past twenty years.
