Preparing for Next Years Corn
Crop

The time to commence digging
that pit silo for next years corn
crop is at hand. Usually there
are a number of days during the
fall months when work in the
field must be suspended on &C
count of rain. While you are
waiting for things to dry up
again, why not utilize these odd
hours to a good advantage? Put
your man. or men to work on the
silo. for it is we'll to get the con-
crete ring in before freezing wea-
Their. AS soon as this ring or base
has set you can commence digg-
ing the hole. The first five or
six feet can be shoveled out very
handily: but after that some ap-
paratus for hosting the dirt must
be used. so arrange this and have
it ready to use.
To wait until next spring or
summer to dig it not only means
added expense for the same work.
but also brings you to face the
same old problem of too many
other things to do. Maybe you
have forgotten how busy you
were last summer and your good
resolutions to start the silo this
fall. Now is the time to fulfill
those promises by commencing
active construction.
You will he surprised to find
how many days during the fall
and winter months can be used
for this particular work and how
quickly these scattered days will
result in your having a completed
silo, j. c. Taylor, County Aeri-
culturist.

GERMANS RUSHING
TROOPS TO FRONT

Paris. Sept. HERMAN reinforce
ments are being hurled in enormous
numbers to the center of the present
battle line.
Reports from the front emphasize
that the critical position, SO far as the
allies are concerned, is in the terri
tory In the vicinity Of vitry-le-Fran-
co.'s, through Genicourt, almost to Yer
dun.
The British-French left continues to
sweep the Germans back north of the
Marine. They have shortened their
lines pending the. arrival of reinforce
ments, but the British attack contin-
ues with almost uninterrupted sue
cess.
If the French finally crush the at.
tack at the center the present British
movement will be successful, al 1t
will clear all Western France OF the
Germans. But II the center breaks
the German menace will Immediately
become great.
That the Germans have no intention
of ~retreating under present circum-
stances is shown by the official re-
ports received by General Gallieni,
which show that they are bringing
their Caterpillar" siege guns forward
behind their center.
II Is not believed that the decisive
stage a be reached In the present
battle for at least three or four nor
days.
