The correspondent Of the Times at Bor-
deaux has this to say OF the big battle
that is being waged in France.
THE battle from the Aisne TO the
Woevre progresses slowly, but method
icully IA favor of the allies. Both sides
have been engaged the last few days in
sending renforcements and assembling
new forces on the firing line. As the re-
Inducements reached the front tine ac-
tivity CT both armies in the Woevre dis
trict on the right of the allies position in
oreases.
The prediction Of the staff Of both
sides for decisive action on the allies
left must not divert attention from the
allies right, which in the present battle
constitutes an all important bulwark
The operations in Woevre have been
more or less at standstill for some days
as the guns were stuck fast i'm the clay
and innumerable riverlets overlooked
large tracts OF country. The armies are
again moving and the Germans are des-
perately attempting to break the strong
natural defenses of the Mouse heights in
order to paralyze the allies plan in the
center
The plains a. the Woevre, the scene
Of the present effort, were made for a
battle and the Mouse heights. with their
steep escarpment and strengthened by
forts form barrier of prodiguous
strength. The northern woevre lakes
lie among green forests and range of
steep hills, crowned with forest, rises
amid this country
The enemy is making desperate eff
forts to dislodge the Frnch forcs from
this natural fortress, which commands an
immense sweep Of country. In the dis
lance are the heights of Pont "A Moussoir

The $4,000 peach crop Of the Har-
rlsons last year and the prospect for
a good yield and good prices this
wear have added quite an impetus to
the growing Of fruits. New orchards
are being rapidly put out The fruit
crop in Delaware and on the Eastern
Shore will produce hundreds Of thou
sands Of dollars for the growers this
year.
To estimate the value Of the water
melon and cantaloupe crop would be
difficult at this time though prospects,
for excellent yields and good prices
are encouraging at the present time.
While the acreage Of tomatoes on
the Sho is hardly up 10 that Of former
years the crop bids fair TO be heavy,

about three weeks the tomato fac
tories will be a scene Of unusual ac-
