GREECE RELEASES
FRENCH STEAMSHIP
fBy Associated Press)

ATHENS, March 2,-Greece has re-
leased the steamship Espoir, which
was captured by a Greek torpedo boat
destroyer off the coast of Asia Minor
on Feb. r. The Espoir sailed from
the port of Pirasus after her cargo had
been discharged.
Seizure of the Espoir was the sub
ject of two notes to Greece from the
French government, the first demand
ing the release of the vessel and car
go, and the second threatening retail
tory measures If the request was mel
granted.
The Greek government in answc'
to the first note, said it would release
the ship, but not the cargo, which II
contended was contraband of war des
tined for the army of Renal Pasha
Turkish Nationalist leader, with whom
the Greeks are at war. France con
tended that the vessel carried only
coal for the Anatolian railroads.

Distribute Free
Explosives For
u. S. Farm Work

Washington, August Is (By the
Associated Press). The attentions
Of farmers in all sections of the coun-
Try to the free distribution of excess
war explosives for farm work, is
called by the United States Depart
mcnt of Agriculture. Since last fall
the Department, in cooperation with
the various state agricultural colleges.
has distributed 100000 pounds of
ricric acid. surplus explosive, which
is very efficient, easy and safe to
handle.
In Minnesota the state Agricul-
tural College reports:
I'VE fell that pctic acid has been
great benefit to the state and has
done a great deal TO stimulate land
clearing. All reports arc to the cf-
feet that its use has been highly
satisfactory. The $4,000 pounds al
lotted to Minnesota We're distributed
to 3,5l1 farmers, averaging 80
pounds per farmer. We estimate
that this will clear $4,000 acres of
land. and has made saving Of over
$4,000 for the farmers of the State"
emphasized by the Department in a
recent circular showing that last falls
distribution saved the farmers about
$500, 900 over the cost Of other ex-
plosivcs. There are now available
some 6,o00000 pounds of picric acd.
and of this amount about 800, 600
are available to each of the Lake
states, Michigan, Wisconsin and Min
ncSota
+ Picric acid is a high explosive
i V hiCh was used in large quantities
during the war and is now being dis
j tlibuted to farmers for agricultural
purposes, says the Department. No
charge is made by the government for
the explosive itself, but as it has to
he dried out and Cartridged before it
can he used for peaceful uses the
cost OF this work must be paid by the
farmers
Picric acid is 4 comparatively safe
explosive and is used in the same
way that other agricultural explo-
sives are used. 1t has several ad-
Fantages over commercial explosives
in that it keeps Indefinitely without
deterloratng, it if not affected bv
heat or cold, and it does not cause
headaches or other i'll effects when
USED IN the open air. Because Of its
greater cost Of manufacture, it will
never be competitor of commercial
I dYnamitcs. 1t is being distributed
Tor the purpose Of increasing inter
est and activity in land clearing.
The details of the method of distrj-
button may be secured from the var
ious state agricultural colleges.
