 Warsaw. March 21.-CUP)-Fo- land intends to maintain an army Inassed on the Lithuanian ron tier until diplomatic relations nave been established in keeping wlth its ultimatum, it was understood to- day. eoooo
 Three divisions, totalling 5O,00o men. paraded yesterday at Wilma, lo miles from the frontier, and siml- lar demonstrations were planned. Officially, they are normal army maneuyers" but it is understood their end will coincide with the establishment of legations at War saw and Kaunas. A similar SiLua- tion is planned as regards the fleet concentrated off Lithuania's coast.
 Cavalry and tanks were promin- ent in yesterdays parade-a sign of the mobility of the frontier army and 50 airplanes circled over the area.
 Satisfied at Result
 Officials asserted that they were most satisfied with the outcome of their sudden demand on Llthuanla' and as regards angry public dem- onstrations termed them "lsoiaeo instances"
 Tn such demonstrations here yes- terday, 435 persons were arrested as thousands tried to march to the foreign office to protest against the Lithuanian settlement. The crowd clamored for annexation of Lithuania.
 Police dispersed the demonstra- tors only after firemen played hoses into the crowd for 20 minutes. Most of the persons arrested were drenched.
 Many students were in the dem- onstration, organized by the ex- treme Nationalistic group. Orators demanded an immediate march on Kaunas. Then, the original 5000 demonstrators started toward the foreign office. Thousands more joined them. Police first summoned riot squads in motor trucks, then the firemen.
 Col. Josef Beck, foreign minister, is to address the senate Wednesday on the Lithuanian situation, and 1t was predicted he might suggest the formation of Baltic block of nations including Poland, Lithuania, Esthonia, Finland and Latvia. In such a block, Lithuania would be expected to end her understanding with Russia.
 Beck may also refer to several points which remain outstanding with Lithuania, which Poland wants to settle by diplomatic negotiations. Foreign observers here foresaw the possibility that Lithuania might be reluctant to settle on Polish terms.

DECLINING RAPIDLY

With medical science delving
to determine if there is a re-
lationship between the sleeping
sickness that attacks humans
and the one that affects horses,
both maladies were reported to
be declining rapidly in the state
Saturday.
The disease that afflicts hu-
mans had attacked ~ 10 oaLe
this year and was fatal in II
cases. Only three cases reported
to the state board of health last
week pointed to a tapering off.
A similar disease that killed
5000 of 1000 horses infected al
so appeared to be leaving with
the advent of cool nights. The
only cases reported to the state
livestock sanitary board last
week were in the high region
near West Yellowstone.
DR.. Charles Armstrong of the
U. S. Public health service made
a study of the two diseases in
Montana. His report is expect
ed to be made to federal auth
critics and then relayed to state
officials.

Sage and Soil
BY Mrs. Paul Schdller

Harvest: Cultivated, noble
fields are ripe.
1t means bread and butter
and dollars for so many people.
Having grown and thrived in
the sugar business, I am not
ashamed to say I am homesick
for a ranch that lies Just a mile
south of my home town.
Twenty years ago, not so
much was known of steel Struc-
ture, and when the mill starts
there the earth throbs for many
miles. AS a youngSter I listened
intently for the first whistle
that told me the beets we're be-
ing let out of the fumes into
the plant. It was a wonder to
me how the dirty beets became
snowy sugar.
Although this is a much more
modern plant, I sense the same
old anticipation. I watched the
crews yesterday getting glealn-
ing machinery in shape.
My person harvest mas been
flower seeds. The most treas
ured are golden coSmas and
heavenly blue morning glories.
We have one lone pie pump
kin plant in the back yard. My
youngest offspring had the
audacity to say he planted it
but if I know a n1ne-year-old
boy, I know he has jack-o-
lantern and a pie in mind for
his harvest, and I know I shall
help him.
The caveman is once more
asserting himself in my old
est boy. If I want a shovel, a
pick or a hammer, it is at the
cave, and if I complain, I am
informed that he and the 9TH
erS are getting the cave in top
shape for the winter.
Honesty compelS me to admit
that every time I see fresh new
cement, I want to put my foot
in it. Never have I given in to
the impulse, but that isn't say
ing I won't.
Another urge that always
comes over me is to close my
eyes wher driving in dust. ]
have not yielded to this temp
tation as yet either.

Facts
About Agriculture

Montana's county agricultural
planning program is attracting
wide interest outside of the
state, according to j. c. Taylor,
director of the Montana Ex-
tension service, who says that
he has received many inquiries
from other states for informa-
ton about the program. Recent
" he received an inquiry from
Canada. And this past week P.
NJ. Brandt, head of tht division
of animal industries at Oregon
State college, spent several days
in the state studying represent
tative counties in which the
program is functioning. Early
in October a series of six dis
trict conferences will be held
for county extension agents for
the purpose of reviewing the
planning work that has been
done to date and to outline the
program for the coming year.
Present information indicates
a more than seasonal decline in
chicken prices, and a more than
seasonal advance in egg prices,
says the U. S. Bureau of Ag-
ri%cultural Economics.
With the week of October 9
to IS designated as Fire Pre-
vention Week, Armin ]. Hill, ex-
tension rural identification
specialist, makes these suggcS-
tions to rural consumers OF ell
ectricity for preventing fires:
Have all wiring and repair work
done by a competent electrician,
be careful not to overload cir
cults, be particularly sure that
fuses are of the right amperage,
never use a substitute for a
hloW=out fuse, use electric
/ cords bearing the label of the
Underwriters b a to ri es,
don't use cords as a substitute
for permanent wiring. And, he
adds, be sure to disconnect all
flatirons, curling irons, heating
pads and other appliances when
not in use. If a house is wired
right, he said, electricity is
about the safest kind of light
the power. However, through
carelessness, it sometimes caus-
eS fires.
