FARMING FOR
BREST-LITOVSK, Russia. May 1
—For almost the first time in historj
the Jews of this district have an op
• portunity to show whether or not they
• can become agriculturalists.
When the Russians evacuated the
city and set it on fire they took with
them thousands of the Jewish popula
tlon. Great numbers died, others kept
on ahead of the retreating Russians,
and still others hid in the woods, and
• then, penniless and hungry, streamed
^ back into the region again.
[ For a time the Germans attempted
f to house them In the ruined city. But
[ they have all now been sent out to the
I abandoned farms, where their work is
L regularly inspected by German offI
l cials. Every possible assistance is
l given them in the hope thai they may
[ raise good crops and do their share
[ toward helping out the need in I’ol
1 and. The land In this sectiou is fer
» tile, and with proper cultivation and
i care should bear a big crop.
! This city itself still remains the
' next thing to a city of the dead. Five
' sixths or thereabouts of the houses
are nothing but gaping walls within
which stand only the remains of the
remarkable Russian stoves which
stand even after chimneys crumble
and fall.

.. . l
The Germans stationed In Brest
have done wonders In cleaning up the
city. Each ruined house has been
thoroughly gone over. The debris
has been removed or nearly so. and
each object not utterly destroyed by
fire which is still usable In one way
or another has been rescued.
The forts, which the Russians blew
up with dynamite and which were val
ued at three hundred million francs
(approximately $60,000,000) are still
heaps of cement and stone, broken and
| crumbling. There is no activity dls
i cernlble that would indicate that the
Germans are attempting to restore
the fortifications for their own pur
poses.

SKIRT SHOULD BE SHORTER.
BERLIN, May 1. — The German
military authorities, who have just f
banned the wide skirt, now announce .
that waste of leather in high boots
for women must also cease.
