’ BALKANS NEED
STRONG MAN TO
PREVENT WARS
% -
BELGRADE, Sept. 22 (by Associated
ed Press).—What the Balkans need to
prevent new wars is a man of strong
personality and charitable tendencies
or a humorous Don Quixote, accord
ing to Premier Vesmich, of Jugo-Sla
via.
Whether it is within the compass of
human intelligence to prevent the pres
ent war tendencies the next few weeks
will show'. The broader aspect of the
situation is that for Central Europe
or the Balkan countries to become a
great battlefield will be playing into
the hands of the Bolshevik agents who
are believed to be working industrious
ly in each country circulating war tum
ors and fomenting quarrels for which
^Pthere are already too many reasons.
That the Jugo-Slav government does
not want war with any other country,
the Associated Press is authorized to
state from a high authority. It was
pointed out that the Jugo-Slavs got
all they could possibly hope for by
the peace treaties in territories from
Hungary and Bulgaria, and a new war
might set back the infant nation. But
they are determined to have Fiume.
The people make loud protestations
that their army can master the Italian
-army. The Jugo-Slav army, they say,
is regarded by outsiders as being in
good shape with 300,000 fresh troops
ready. Also the word has been
passed for mobilization of the peasants
k» as soon as the harvests are in at the
end of July.
What the Jugo-Slavs do, it appears
here, will be the signal for the Hun
garians to jump after Transylvania
and Slovakia and later to attempt to
retake the enormously fertile Batchka
from the Serbs.
Riding south from Budapest in to old
Serbia the correspondent found few
evidences of the eve of war prepared
enss on either side of the frontier, yet
■all the peasantry were receiving not
ices of mobilization. The Hungarians
now within the Serbian frontier ap
peared to be heart brokent that they
must belong to a country whose peo
people they regard as of a culture low
er than their own. They also com
plain they are unable to obtain pass
ports to visit their friends in New
y Hungary.
While the Jugo-Slavs are said to be
unafraid of war, yet they realize they
* occupy a perilous position with re
spect to international political dissen
tions, as Avell as concerning what the
Buigars and Greeks might do in case
the Jugo-Slavs made war on Italy.
Not counting the Hungarians, it is
not believed in American circles here
that the Serbs and the Bulgarians
will reach an understanding for com
mon action. HoAvever, regarding the
Spalato incident it is believed if it is
shown the Italians started the trouble
the Jugo-Slavs will insist strongly on
indemnity.
A croAvd of Croats attacked Italian
naval officers at Spalato, July 11 and
• lulled an Italian commander and sev
eral sailors.
A trip through the city streets con
vinces one that all is quiet. Citizens
generally deny any war madness. Dur
♦ ing the recent celebration of King
Peters’ birthday no demonstrations of
a war time nature occurred during
the large parade.
The premier prior to the celebration,
issued a request to the people asking
them to refrain from unfriendly acts
and to allow the government to han
dle the affairs with Italy. He made a
speech in parliament of the same ten
or, stating he was willing to abide
the investigation by the American nav
al authorities regarding the Spalato
Incident.
The recent British loans and reports
of a good harvest have improved the
dinar exchanges, the dollar being now
worth 16 to 17 as against 20 to 30
^ a few month ago. Prices however, are
high, meals in hotels costing from
one to two American dollars. Cheap
shoes may be purchased at from 20
to 25 American dollars. Country peo
ple are selling foodstuffs to Austria
and to the Poles and Czechs, but other
wise no real business is going on, ow
ing to the adverse exchange rate pre
venting buying abroad, and the de
mand of merchants for credit which
few are willing to extend.

PARIS, Sept. 22 (by Associated
Press).—Lodging houses and “ward
robes of the poor,” where old clothing
is sold, are being multiplied by the
French Salvation Army, on much the
same lines as in the United States.
The work, so necessary now that cit
ies are over-populated and the cost of
living so high, to attracting the atten

tion of publications interested in so
cial work and French philanthropic or
ganizations are being urged to follow
the lead of “L’Armee du Salut,” as the
blue uniformed, tambourine contin
gent is known here.

SUCCESS OF THE]
MARSON FAMILY
—An Inspiration
When the Marsons purchased their little 5-acre farm less than three years
ago, their capital consisted of a few hundred dollars, plus an abundance of pluck
and determination.
Today their modern poultry houses contain many hundred thoroughbred
White Leghorn hens, each producing its daily quota of the big tri-weeklv ship
ment of new laid eggs that go to one of Seattle’s leading cafes. Promptly Uncle
Sam’s faithful mail carrier brings back a handsome check from the cater
er who gladly pays a premium for the superior Alderwood Manor eggs.
The picture tells the story: The modern home with its well kept lawn, veg
etable and berry garden, up-to-date poultry plant, is one of the most attractive
in the wonderful Alderwood Manor district.
Mrs. Marson keenly enjoys looking after the chickens and gathering the
eggs, while Mr. Marson continues to work at his trade, for the Marsons are
thrifty folks who believe in “team work”; combining their efforts now that they
may live a life of ease in their declining years.
Modern methods and a strict accounting system have proved to Mrs. Mar- j
son that each laying hen produces better than two dollars net profit each year.
(Take a pencil and figure out what the 1,500 hens that can be kept on 5
acres under the Alderwood Manor plan would produce you). Are you making
$3,000 a year in your present position?
j
Are you willing to grasp a big opportunity? Does Independence, with plenty
and to spare appeal to you?
The Puget Mill Company, an old responsible concern that has played a big
part in the inidustrial development of the state of Washington, starting wav
back in 1853, established the wonderful Alderwood Manor poultry district, just
outside the great city of Seattle, three years ago. Today thousands of Seattle
folks own little 5-acre farms out there, more than 350 homes and poultry plants
have already been built and are now occupied bv men and women who point with
pride to their success. It is the most remarkable, most practicable development
of its kind in America.
The wonderful $200,000.00 Alderwood Demonstration Farm and Poultry Col
lege, where a staff of skilled experts teach (free) those who desire to follow mod
ern methods in poultry raising, home gardening, fruit and berry culture is the
center around which the greatest poultry community in the United States is be
ing built.
Wouldn’t you like to live in the finest climate in the world where there is
never extreme heat or cold, seldom snows in the winter? Where you can view the
beautiful snow-capped mountains from porch or window and only a few minute’s
drive from beautiful lakes and shores of Puget Sound? And Seattle, the chief
seaport city of the Pacific coast, but 45 minutes from your home? Where you
can make an independent living on 5 acres of land—with a strong company back
of you always ready to extend financial assistance.
If you are interested in knowing all about Alderwood Manor; in learning
how the Puget Mill Company will help you to own 5 acres of rich soil that will
produce a bigger income with less effortthan you can ever hope to earn on the
payroll, write for the complete story of Alderwood Manor and the New Life of
the Land. It’s free for the asking.
