Germans Lose 100000 in Four Days.
LONDON - The German loss

Flanders are estimated at 100000 by
the correspondent of the Daily Mail at
Dunkirk.
Despite the blizzard which has pre-

Germans directed a fierce attack upon

progress was made.
Weather Conditions Terrible.
All reports from the scene or fight
ing in northern France inds@lte that
the weather conditions for the last few
days have been terrible. Heavy rain,
falling continuously for thirty-six
hours, has turned all the roads into
quagmires. while the trenches are
flooded and the lowlands everywhere
are largely covered by water.
Everything possible is being done to
make the troops comfortable to pre-
vent their being flooded out of the
trenches and to avoid caves-ins. The
trenches are being shored and braced
and the bottoms covered with brush
and straw. Meanwhile the artillery
battle continues.
A correspondent at SluiS, Neither

audible yesterday and the Germans
are renewing their efforts to cross the
User near Newport.

DiXmude, including the villages in
its environs, has been entirely de-

The Germans, in the opinion of of

show signs of the terrific strain they
have undergone for a month past in
Flanders and these officers expect
that General Joffre's plan of holding
the line and permitting the German
pest to wear itself out in vain but
costly assaults will soon bear fruit.

SISTERS HOSPITAL
AT MASON CITY

Mason City May 9.-Construction by
the Dubuque chapter Of the Sisters of
Mercy. of hospital in Mason City
costing not less than $4,000, was
made certain when Rev. Mother Agnes
and Mother Stanislaus, acting for the
great hospital building sisterhood,
closed a deal with A. T. Parker for a
site for the new institution, in the
Parker addition, just west of the city
proper.
The representatives of the order
have been here for three days past
considering various sites offered.
AS soon as the deed is delivered,
which will be within a very few days,
the work of building the hospital
will be commenced. Plans have al.
ready been placed in the Sisters
hand by Buechner & Orth, of Mime
apolis, their architects, for the build
ing. The architects have now been
notified of the site selected, and order
ed to proceed with working out OF the
detailed plans for construction.
Mr.. Parker at the time the deal
was closed, made a donation to the
hospital fund of $4,000. This, with
$4,000 previously raised by physi-
clans of the city makes total OF
$4,000, which more than covers the
cost of the site, and leaves some to
be applied on the building itself.

Chapter XII.

Since the close of the Civil War
when the State of Ohio got in the
habit of naming presidents and in
other ways dominating the affairs OF
state, any considerable activity that
has gone on within it's borders has had
a national significance. The metro
politan papers Of the East and West
alike have paid an unusual attention
to tho doings Of the Buckeye State.
The people are accustomed by long
training to take an active interest IN
a great variety of things, if these are
properly presented.
Without arrogating to itself, how
ever. either an established wickedness
or yet a secular disposition toward
piety, Ohio presented a logical scene
for such work on the part of Rev. w,
A. Sunday as would bring him most
fully into the light of national atten-
ton. Moreover the various Ohio can?

MAHASKA co. HOME
OF 2,444 FARMS

Oskaloosa, May 9.-Mahaska county
contains a total of 2,444 farms with an
aggregate acreage of 297 III acres. The
total number of acres in the county de-
voted to farm buildings, public high
ways and feed lots Is $500. These
figures constitute only portion OF the
many interesting facts that may be
cleaned from the annual crop reports
and farm statistics compiled by the
township assessors and turned in at
the office of County Auditor Briggs to
be forwarded by him to the state
agricultural department.
The reports show that there are IN
the county 1926 horses, 1911 mules,
1888 hogs, 1885 cattle. 1924
sheep, and 5O4,667 poultry. The farm
ers clipped S1,S25 pounds of wool from
their sheep during the year of 1913 and
they received 1,7O4,607 dozen eggs
from their hens. The total pasture
land in the county is 9SS34 acres,
and orchards take up 1887 acres, while
there are 3,424 acres of waste land
not utilized for any purpose. The
average wage paid farm hands in the
county during the summer months Is
$34.69 and during the winter months
$2513.
A comparison of the crop reports
with those of the year previous, 1917,
shows a decided falling off In the
yield of all varieties of grain, hay,
etc. This is due, of course, to the
exceptionally dry season. There are
a few exceptions to the rule, the most
notable of which is in the apple crop
there being 42,38S bushels OF apples
picked last year in comparison with
only 1922 bushels during 1912.
