SEED WHEAT.

One fourth years trial of Stoner's
Miracle wheat more firmly establishes
our confidence in the great merit of this
wheat. From our own observations we
unhesitatingly pronounce it to be
superior in every way to existing kinds
of winter wheats.
1t is bearded variety, white chaff,
grain large. plump. dark red, hard long
berry type. Straw medium height,
very stiff, making it almost proof
against lodging. Contains more gluten
than any other variety of wheat. On
account of the large heads, and most
of the spiklets containing grains, it is
a heavy yielder Under ordinary con-
ditions yields 10 to 20 bushels per acre
more than other varieties On account
of its wonderful inclination to stool, the
originator advises to SOW from | peck
to J bushel per acre Our observations
lead US to recommend bushel per
acre for this section. A smaller quantity
we believe would be successful on fertile
land, providing it was sown very early.
At the low cost we offer it, you can
seed your land much cheaper with this
wheat than with any other variety
Price $500 per bushel 10 bushels or
more at Sl.75 per bushel. All seed re-
cleaned and free from cookie and other
impurities. Ready now

Germany's army has its back turned

Join the German center army.
The wounded began coming int
Paris this morning.
The nearness of this fighting to
Paris was responsible for reports cur

was beautifully clear and a strong
wind from the east would tend to sup
port the contention of those who de
clare they heard the sound of artillery.
The retreat of the Germans from

fear of attack from an army of British
and Russian forces believed to have
been landed at point on the English
channel.

British Cruiser Pathfinder, While
Doing Patrol Duty, Hits German
Mine-sinks In -Four Minutes-2e-
suitsnt Concussion FelS For Maay
Miles at Sea and en- Shore.
London, Sept. S.-Additic2al pr
ticulars were received here this morn
ing about the loss OF the British light
cruiser Pathfinder, which was blown
up by German mine in the NoT;H
sea off the Scottish coast.
The Pathfinder was a fast cruiser Of
about 5000 tons. About $50 CT nel
crew were killed or drowned in the
disaster. As the vessel was close t..
the Scotch coast at the time OF -
accident it would appear that g.
many has scattered floating mines ~
along the British coast This is pc
leved to have been done by fishing
boats.
A message received in London
states that in addition to the motor
liiebOat several steam drifters hurried
to the spot where the Pathfinder sank.
and adds that it is learned on reliable
authority that the captain of the Path
finder and fifty or sixty OF his crew
were saved
About ninety oS the crew of the
Pathfinder. dead and wounded were
picked up by torpedo boats and taken
10 a HOSPITAL at the naval base.
The skipper of trawler, who wit,
messed the blowing up OF the Path
finder from u distance OF less than
three miles, said:
81 was on deck and the men below
getting a rlc2l when our vessel was
suddenly shaKCn. | turned in the di-
rectiOn Of the report and saw the
cruiser in a perpendicular position
amidst a fountain of smoke, water and
steam. Her stern was uppermost. She
poised thus only for moment and
then came another explosion and the
Pathfinder was practically blown to
atoms. She went down in less than
four minutes from the time she struck
the mine.
We picked up all the survivors we
could find and then remained a long
time searching amid the wreckage. SO
terrific was the explosion that only
one piece OF wreckage was found
large enough to support the weight OF
man."
The devastating effect of the ex-
plosion is emphasized in the report Of
COxswain Nisbet Of the Saint Abb $
motor lifeboat. He says that for a
mile and half the water was strewn
with wreckage of every conceivable
description. There were few of the
pieces that were larger than man s
leg. In the midst Of the debris he
found floating a ships Bible and extra,
ordinary collections OF personal
articles from the cabins in the interior
of the ship.
