By Clarence Dubose

. At Sea in the Pacific. (By mail) -
Non-B olshevist Russians, in search Of
lost relatives in their chaotic home
country, seem to be- turning to the
long transit Pacific treck, and attempt
ing to reach European Russia through
Siberia. .G FL F.. r.1,.-.. 81.
Also, apparently, some who are
Bolshevists but pretend not to be,
are following the same rouIe. s-%E
"It is hard to draw the lines, ex-
planned John Metovitch, a passenger
on this ship from San Francisco, who
hopes to get across Siberia from
Vladivostok, and learn, at Moscow,
the fate or whereabouts of relatives
from whom he has not heard for. four

MAYBE some of us are Bolshevists.
Maybe some are not. don't try to

HOW TUBERCULOSIS
:. OF POULTRY SPREADS

r. County agents Of Minnesota are be-
ing called upon frequently nowadays
to identify tuberculosis in poultry
f1ocks, and to suggest methods Of con-
troll and eradication. 1t is reliably
reported that more than rs per cent
of the poultry in some sections is in
fected with tuberculosis. J.
Identification and spread Of the
disease, symptoms, and methods of
control are subjects which ought to
be mastered by poultry keepers.
There is no cure for tuberculosis, and
a few tubercular fowls may eventu-
ally inoculate entire flocks. DR.. w.
A. Billings Of the division Of veterin-
airy medicine, University Of Mime
sofa, gives the following explanation
of how the disease spreads: ID.
''The germ can only be seen under
the microscope. Since the liver,
spleen and intestines are the organs
commonly affected and as the organs
empty into the intestines, the drop
pings which pass from the birds con-
tain millions of these minute germs.
In this way, the soil and floor of the
chicken house become laden with in
lection and the disease is easily pick
ed up by healthy birds. 1t is gener-
ally believed that poultry do not be-
come infected from cattle or hogs,
but this is not definitely known. Birds
dead or tuberculosis should be burn
ed, for the carcasses may be source
of infection to the others. 1t may be
also that certain of our wild birds car
ry infection from flock to flock"

NONE TOO EARLY TO
PLAN FOR ICE CUT

1t is noone too early to make plans
for harvesting and storing the COM
ing crop of ice. The farm ice supply
can often be gathered and stored at
light expense. Those who have the
time and means to build house with
insulated walls should write the Office
of Publications. University Farm

In American circles. 1t was said that
a full understanding OF the proposed
agreement. with the official statement
that an alliance or even nj entente
was not the aim. would remov much
OF the criticism which already has do
veloped in some quarters. All o u OF
tho American delegates were reported
as favoring the Horsepower agreement.
Ono American official said that he
had no doubt that when the agreement
was fully understood that it would
meet with bipartisan support upon be-

who have advocated American en-

NO DEMONSTRATION
MADE IN DUBLIN.

DUBLIN. Dec. 7.-By The Asso-
ciated Press6The most noteworthy
fact with regard to the reception OF
the news OF the Irish settlement here
has been the total absence OF any
sort OF popular demonstration or out
ward expression OF satisfaction; not a
single nag has been flown nor any
other symbol Of rejoicing displayed to
signalize what is generally regarded
as h greatest political event affect
ing Irish history in several hundred
Years
Dublin has been about It's usual
business throughout the day, almost
as II unooncerned. Many observers
attribute this outward calm to the be-
lief that the people were stunned
with establishment, for the news OF
the agreement came everywhere with
entire surprise.
When late this evening tho terms
began to circulate through reports OF
Lord Birkenhead's speech. the papers
were eagerly buoght. and ardent dis
cussions followed.
Many admitted that the terms were
more generous than expected; others
remarked with dissatisfaction that the
republic had not been recognized. II
is too carly to indicate general pub
lie opinion. but at present there Is
nothing 10 show that ratification will
be opposed. In the meantime the
city is outwardiy without excitement,
and men went 20 their homes as II
no such thing as a new chapter in
Irish history had opened.

Favorable action by the Dali Fire
ann is thought to be fairly well as

clusion should the Dali approve the
treaty.
II is pointed out however. that no
body has yet drawn from Eamonn De
valera. Irish Republican leader. a
statement as to his attitude toward
the plan.
In some quarters it Is said that the
attitude of the Irish extremists is
causing anxiety to the delegates.
The only opposing voice OF conse
ouence thus far IS that Of Sir Edward
Carson, former Ulster leader who is
quoted by the Morning Post as de
claring:
81 thought that I should live
to see a day of such AFFECT humilia-

The Westminster Gazette expresses
the opinion that the Irish Republi'
cans now in interment may be given

is revived hat oneiof the kings sons

Official confirmation hat the sug-
gestion for n new international con-
cert has taken definite form was given
Today by the British, Details were not
revealed but an authorized British
ipokesnlan said that certain sugges-
tons were formulated and telegraphed
to London" after the conference lasr
week between Secretary Hughes. Ar
thur j. Baifour and Admiral Baron
Kato.
The British spokesman added hat
Il might fairly be inferred that If these
proposals should find. general accept
lnce they would have the effect of
terminating the Anglo-Japanese alli-
ance for which there would be no fur
her use.
Although no similar official state
ment has been made by the Japanese.
[ is known that the tentative agree
.ment was cabled also to Toxic and
he delay in receiving a more definite
statement of position from the Japa-
nese capital is attributed generally to
questions raised by this new phase of
the negotiations rather han to indie
cision over the naval ratio.
Meantime the American delegation
is revealing nothing whatever regard
ing its attitude toward the proposed
arrangement. American Spokesman
hold to their insistance that the CUES
ton is not at a stage where anything
can be said about it to the public.
