DELHI COLONY IN DEEP DI STR E S IN CALIFORNIA State Land Settlement People la Great Need—Ask Legislative Assistance. Delhi Colony, Calif.—California's second state land settlement, the Delhi colony, has resulted in a band of dis heartened farmers, who place their only hope in remedial legislation af fecting payment on their places and an appropriation of $250,000 to make necessary improvements. The colonists, who settled from mid dle western and eastern states under a plan sponsored and indorsed by the Mate through its land settlement board, headed by Dr. Elwood Mead, father of the land colonization plan in the United States, laid their story of hardship and disaster before a leg islative committee. Already 48 set tlers have abandoned their farms. Claiming to be victims of misman agement of pyramided costs, set tlers laid the account of their years of effort before the committee and pleaded for help to save their farms and homes. The committee came here, obtained a general impression of the colony plan from Capt. J. Winter Smith, its superintendent, and then left for a tour of the colony by automobile. On their tour the committee for the first time came Into direct touch with the settlers and Individuals. They met Charlie Stoop, a smiling, hard-work ing young man of thirty-four, who came to Delhi with $3,300 in cash and invested it because he “loved to farm.” Charlie has a $3,200 mortgag® on his 40 acres, although he has worked since 1920. He pays Interest amounting to $65 a month. Smiling as he told his story to the members of the state legislature, Charlie declares that “this raw sand makes you hump,” and added that "sometimes the wife and I don’t know whether we'll get over the hill." Stoop was an lowa farmer who made money farming in that state. He also Is an expert sign painter, but he prefers to found a farm home in Cali fornia if he can. His standard of living, he admitted, was low. He has been able to furnish only one room of his home, and has kept grocery bills as low as $7 In some months. Vassar Teacher Invents Oil-Refining Furnace New York.—A new mlcrothermal furnace recently Invented by Miss Tai sia Stadnlchenko, Instructor in chem istry at Vassar college, will eliminate much waste in oil refining, according to President Henry Noble McCracken of Vassar college. The national re search council, he said, had granted Miss Stadnlchenko $7,000 to continue her research In Washington. The microthermal furnace, said Doc tor McCracken, makes possible accu rate observation of successive stages in the disintegration of shale or petroleum when subjected to temperature up to 600 degrees centigrade, enabling scien tists to determine the exact nature of by-products formed. Such an Instru ment had been declared by scientists to be impossible, said Dr. McCracken. The device when brought to the atten tion of Dr. David White, chairman of the petroleum division of the National Research council, so Impressed him that he recommended the $7,000 grant to the Inventor to continue her work. Miss Stadnlchenko came to this country as a refugee from Russia a few years ago, said Doctor McCracken, and for three years has been a mem ber of th® Vassar faculty. Finnish Women Organize for Military Service Helsingfors, Finland.— Two hundred thousand Finnish women are organized into Lotta Svaerd clubs, auxiliaries to the voluntary military organizations of men, and are in constant training to support the standing army in case of emergency. The women are organized on a mili tary basis and participate in manetF versos the volunteer forces so that they may be prepared to carry on all work for which women are qualified in time of war. During the drills the women wear coarse gray garments and sleep on straw, just as the men volunteers do, so as to accustom themselves to th® hardships of military service The fighting between the Red and White forces which followed the estab lishment of the Russian soviet gov ernment saw much of Finland involved in the bitterest sort of ctvU strife Railway communications were severed for months, and the entire population was involved in conflict
